By Geno McGahee “Maybe nobody knows how to stop him.” – Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) It has been six years since the 1982 release of HALLOWEEN III: Season of the Witch, a movie that gets zero respect in this horror world. I saw that it recently made two lists. The […]

Roman (2006)
Reviewed by Leeann Aubuchon “Roman” is a low budget independent thriller/drama directed Angela Bettis and written by Lucky McKee.

Without Warning (1980)
Reviewed by Geno McGahee “We ain’t alone.” – Fred “Sarge” Dobbs (Martin Landau) When I say “aliens” and “woods” you may think of the classic Don Dohler film, GALAXY INVADER, or you may think of an anal probe from an alien’s wood, but in 1980, another alien horror movie was […]
Fiend (1980) – Horror Movie Review
Reviewed by Geno McGahee One of my favorite filmmakers is Don Dohler. His film “GALAXY INVADER” was one of the best micro-budget films of all time, featuring an alien’s dealing with rednecks.

Barracuda (1978)
Reviewed by Geno McGahee The 1970s was the best time for horror movies and I was fortunate to discover another obscure gem called: BARRACUDA. With the success of JAWS, other movies began to emerge, taking advantage of the “killing fish in the water” storyline. Both PIRANHA and BARRACUDA were released […]
Halloween Resurrection (2002)
Reviewed by Geno McGahee I recently watched HALLOWEEN H20: 20 YEARS LATER and it was so bad that I decided to give the follow up a second chance. I watched HALLOWEEN RESURRECTION in 2002 when it first came out and I wasn’t too happy with it. I know that they […]
