Blood and Lace (1971) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza This 45+ year old horror find had been out of circulation for decades until 2015. During the 70s, it was a staple at drive-ins, but had not been released on home media until a Shout! Factory DVD release three years ago. Now, Amazon Primers can […]
Psychomania (1973) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza A kind and pleasant Twitter pal reminded me of this movie after I reviewed VIRGIN WITCH (1972) as both films have Ann Michelle in them. I hadn’t reviewed PSYCHOMANIA yet, so here goes that. Admittedly, I’m not big into bikers at all. Unless there’s a […]
The Stepford Wives (1975) – Horror Movie Review

The Stolen (2017) – Richard O’Brien Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Richard O’Brien portrays Mr. Russell who works at a brothel filled with lovely women. He is just delicious and I love this flick. Now to start, I do have a serious complaint. In a single scene, the film loses all credibility and becomes completely […]

THE BEYOND (1981) Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza THE BEYOND (1981) is one of the rare films that still freak me out. I’ll watch it tonight because the hubby is home. If I was alone, I would not be venturing into this territory. This, Bob Clark’s BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974) and Lamberto Bava’s DEMONS […]
Lisa and the Devil (1974) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Some say Telly Savalas portrays the devil in this film. I contend he portrays Telly Savalas in it. Moreso, I contend he always plays Telly Savalas and he’s awesome at it. Lisa Reiner (Elke Sommer) is hanging outside listening to a tour guide talk about […]
