Earth Girls Are Easy (1988) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY (1988) is a strange rare breed that set out to be a cult film and succeeded wonderfully. It’s like THE BURBS (1989) in that respect. It has aliens, comedy, music, and Jeff Fucking Goldblum! The film begins with three furry aliens […]

Nudist Colony of the Dead (1991) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Mark Pirro is pretty badass. He wrote, rewrote, re-rewrote and directed NUDIST COLONY OF THE DEAD (1991). It says so in the opening credits. He also apparently made this film on only a $35,000 budget, and it’s awesome. The film starts when Judge Rhinehole (Forrest […]
SPICE WORLD (1997) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I typically love films that follow musical bands around. The Monkees HEAD (1968) and Sonny and Cher’s GOOD TIMES (1967) are among my favorites. SPICE WORLD (1997) is a fun addition to this small genre of great flicks. Some would tell you that the film SPICE […]
