Scary Movie (1991) – Not Wayans Brothers HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The 1980s were a great time for horror. The very early nineties still had that 80’s feel to it and you could find a good slasher every once in a while, which is what I thought SCARY MOVIE might have been. It had a great 80’s look […]
