By Melissa Antoinette Garza I have never seen CLOVERFIELD (2008). Even now, eight years later, I don’t have any type of inclination to see it. I’ve heard that some people really enjoyed it and others hated it. The hand-held, shaky camera isn’t something that appeals to me often, so that […]

Columbus Circle (2012) – Jason Lee, Amy Smart & Selma Blair HORROR/THRILLER MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I have a young daughter that loves ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS. We own the entire collection on Blu-ray and watch them with regularity. So, when I began watching COLUMBUS CIRCLE with Jason Lee, I couldn’t help but to think “there’s Dave.” I was waiting for him to […]
How horror reached beyond our cinema screens
The horror movie genre has always shown an interesting ability to go beyond our cinema screens to provide fans with an extra dose of gore. In recent years there’s been something of a mini-industry in comic books, online games and even some pretty weird horror costume parties that show just […]
Trial and Error (1997) – Michael Richards, Jeff Daniels, Rip Torn & Charlize Theron COMEDY MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I’ve always hated Seinfeld. I never found the show funny. I never liked the comedian. I don’t understand why it was so successful, but then again, there are a lot of things that do really well that I do not understand. Although Jerry Seinfeld is unfunny and […]
Scared Stiff Pays Tribute to the Legendary Merle Haggard
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Scared Stiff Reviews says farewell to Country Music Icon, Merle Haggard who passed away today at age 79. So often the word “icon” is thrown around. Whenever a popular singer is mentioned, you’ll hear someone call them an icon without it being warranted; but with […]
THE OTHER WOMAN (2014) – Comedy Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza THE OTHER WOMAN is a movie I only sought out because it was recommended by my mother. On the way back from MOHEGAN SUN, she began telling me about the film, and it actually sounded quite funny so I took my mother’s advice and rented it. […]
God’s Not Dead 2 – David A.R.White Christian Movie – New Film in Theaters Now
By Melissa Antoinette Garza As many now know, I love GOD’S NOT DEAD and PURE FLIX films as a whole. To put it simply, I think these particular religious movies have certain qualities that are missing in the mainstream. To be completely upfront, I have received some flack from people […]
Vacation (2015) – COMEDY MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee In 1983, film history was made with the comedy NATIONAL LAMPOON’S VACATION. The film, starring Chevy Chase, would lead to a franchise with several sequels and some spinoffs, but the series was considered dead after the 1997 VEGAS VACATION that failed to impress. In 2015, a new […]
Me Again (2012) – Christian Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Who is hyped for GOD’S NOT DEAD 2? I’m on pins and needles waiting for this. Until then, I’m going through my Pure Flix collection and am so happy I found this gem. When I was younger, feel good movies were an easy find. Sure, there […]
The Blob (1958) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee In 1988, THE BLOB was remade and that’s the one that I was familiar with. I remember really liking it, but since it was a remake, I needed to see the original and it has taken this long for me to check it out. Steve McQueen […]
The Sleeping Car (1990) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I know that you’re not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but I always hated Jeff Conaway. I first saw him in GREASE and he was annoying then, but I didn’t see anything yet. THE SLEEPING CAR brings Conaway in as a lady’s man that […]
