BLOOD FOR DRACULA (1974) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza BLOOD FOR DRACULA (1974) aka Andy Warhol’s DRACULA, begins with the Count (Udo Kier) putting on cosmetics. One of my kicks is certainly watching a sexy gent delicately apply makeup. I often just watch a video of Klaus Nomi in front of a mirror doing the […]
Female Vampire (1973) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza The movies of Jesús Franco are so much fun! I love them for so many reasons. The blood, sex, odd stories and strange visuals that turn off so many draws me in. One of reasons I sometimes socialize with the straight-laced is because I get […]

SEVEN DEAD IN THE CAT’S EYE (1973) Horror Movie Review

Bloody Moon (1981) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I decided that I’m still in the mood to watch some Jesús Franco films so I’m delving a few years forward to 1981 and the German/Spain film BLOODY MOON (1981). The film opens with disfigured Miguel (Alexander Waechter) who is very self-conscience about his appearance. He […]
