I have no real interest in the Twilight series personally. I will eventually give in and check them out to see what all this hype is about, but for now, I think there are other films that deserve the attention. With this hype, you are always going to get those...

I have a pretty strong stomach. I watch some of the sickest exploitation/gore films almost daily, and I’m never physically affected by what I see on the screen. Maybe I’m desensitized, but while films like Nekromantik and Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS have raised my...

The Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and even in a lesser degree The Sleepaway Camp franchises all knew how to utilize particular elements of the slasher genre and make it work for their perspective audiences. Those series worked so well that it would be...

On the front cover of the DVD for Necromentia, one critic compares the film to movies like of Saw and Hellraiser. That statement is truer than one can imagine as the writers of this film really took a lot of elements from not just those two films, but many other...

Despite being praised by critics Near Dark was a box office failure when it was first released in theaters in 1987. Near Dark is one of many vampire films that were released during the 1980’s. However, unlike the majority of eighties vampire flicks that have come and...

Are good ole boy Al Adamson. Quite a cheap man and laid to waste some of the most sought after genre’s. Such classics as Dr. Dracula, Black Heat, I Spit On Your Corpse, Blood Of Ghastly Horror, Cinderella 2000, and on and on. He made a crap load of movies lets put it...

Last year, I was subjected to M. Night Shyamalan’s THE HAPPENING, a film where nature took over and made humans kill one another. The film was a mess in its story, script and acting. It made no sense and we never really got the idea of what was going on. NATURE’S...

I have been criticized for giving a film a good review on the plan fact that it was just a "fun: film. Well I don't care what anyone says it's my opinion anyway, you don't like it, tough! With that said National Treasure does not have much of what would be consisted...

“This film is dedicated to Ashley Swan, 2/23/85-11/19/09.” Following a brief slideshow we’re informed that this production is “Brought to you by the Ashley Swan Memorial Trust,” the Special Council of which, Bernard Shepherdman, describes as a collection of footage...

Overlooked on its minimal theatrical release, OUTPOST is an impressively eerie and beautifully shot (in widescreen) addition to an already-interesting bunch of wartime horror movies including R POINT, THE KEEP and (from the UK) DEATHWATCH and THE BUNKER. Director...

One of many genre influences prevalent throughout OUTLANDER is John McTiernan’s peerless 80’s jungle action-horror fest PREDATOR, a fact that is immediately apparent from the very first scene of Howard McCain’s movie. The Moorwen, a dragon-ish creature designed by...

WOW! This has got to be one one of the best independent efforts I have ever seen. A film like this is the reason why I will never be easy on independent filmmakers, mainly because the budget for this movie was only fifteen thousand dollars, but looked like it was made...

You know that creepy guy in high school who's about the same age as you, but is very overweight, balding and looks like he's forty. You know, that guy, he wears flannel shirts, tries to act real smart, and smells like beer nuts and ass. That's who Otis the main...

Executive produced by Guillermo Del Toro, THE ORPHANAGE (EL ORFANATO) is a beautifully crafted, frightening and ultimately moving ghost story in which restless spirits provoke fear and solace in equal measures for the grieving members of the waking world. Punctuated...
