By Melissa Antoinette Garza I miss when vampire movies were done right! When I drown myself in the 70s, I know I’m getting lots of sex, gore and insanity brought to me by the most kick-ass femme fatale leads of all time. Virgins (yep, go with it) Marie (Marie-Pierre […]

Goodbye Gemini (1970) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza At an age too young to remember, I saw TO SIR WITH LOVE (1967) and fell in love with the fearless blonde bombshell that is Judy Geeson. When I was around 13, I started scouring the huge books in video stores to rent her filmography. […]
Crash (1996) – Sexploitation Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Introducing people to David Cronenberg movies hasn’t always gone well for me. Probably, because I typically begin with CRASH (1996). I love James Spader. He’s gorgeous and he has a lot of crazy sex in it. What isn’t to enjoy? Some people would say it […]
The New Kids (1985) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza James Spader is one of my favorite actors. He was in so many movies that got me thru many a dateless night in high-school……college…. and…… so on. I enjoy him so much that roughly a decade ago I hosted a SpaderVasion party where strictly James Spader […]
Dolls (1986) Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Killer doll movies are a delight! They are also the reason my BABY TALK doll was shaved, stripped, broken, humiliated and sold for $1.00 at a tag sale in 1987. That doll looked at me every time I walked into a room. Her lips were […]
Macabre (1980) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza This film opens stating that it’s based on a true story. I don’t know how much of the plot really happened. I’m guessing around zero percent. Whether fiction or non, MACABRE (1980) is whacked out, strange fun, for all who have a twisted taste for […]
SLEEPAWAY CAMP III: TEENAGE WASTELAND (1989) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza The bitch is back with a frizzy rocker hairdo and a much sassier bad-girl attitude. Pamela Springsteen returns as Angela in the third SLEEPAWAY CAMP entry and just like the others, I enjoy it immensely. As the movie opens, we see Angela murder Maria (Kashina […]
Thirst (1979) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Do I want to go down under with some Aussie vampire doctors? Stamp my boarding pass, I am ready for travel. Mrs. Barker (Shirley Cameron) and Dr. Gauss (Henry Silva) open the show as employees in a dimly lit hospital where a patient is going crazy. […]
SLEEPAWAY CAMP II: UNHAPPY CAMPERS (1988) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza When I was 12 years old, this was my jam! I’d rent this and SLEEPAWAY CAMP III: TEENAGE WASTELAND (1989) all the time. I had virtually no friends so I had plenty of time to watch cheesy silly horror flicks. Being a loser loner wasn’t all […]
Killer’s Moon (1978) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza KILLER’S MOON (1978) is definitely a move not for the easily triggered. It’s an effective dark unyielding nightmare into a horrific situation. The best the viewer can hope for is that it will end. Raw and pessimistic tragedies was a sub-genre of 70’s horror. For […]
Virgin Witch (1972) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza There’s nothing quite better than British sexploitation of the 1970s. VIRGIN WITCH (1972) shines as a superb example of creepy erotica done right. The films opens with Christine (Ann Michelle) and Betty (Vicki Michelle) looking for work. Christine is brought in by agent Sybil […]
Girly (1970) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I love the insane villains of the 1970s. The way that women were allowed to tap into sexy crazy back then. DEATH GAME (1977), LET’S SCARE JESSICA TO DEATH (1971) and THE BLOOD SPATTERED BRIDE (1972) are all sensational examples of the different ways […]
