The Dark Crystal
The first time I laid eyes on the film The Dark Crystal ,I was five years old. My Aunt took me to see it in the theater. It probably was one of the first films I saw in a theater. To make a long story short, I remember being bored with the film. That was the last time...
Dark Country
Needless to say, I was warned about this film. I was warned by those who had seen it to stay away from it. But I am a big Tomas Jane fan. I love the guy as an actor. I read a lot of books and I can picture him as many of the characters I read. I loved him in The Mist,...
Dark Corners
Dark Corners is the rookie screenwriting and directorial effort of Ray Gower. Though his debut outing exhibits much initial energy, the film begins to wear upon the viewer much like a cute, yet grossly hyperactive, child (in much the same time span). What remains is a...
Dante’s Inferno
The timeless tale of Dante Aligheri’s The Divine Comedy, particularly its first chapter, Inferno, about the adventures of a man’s decent into the nine stages of Hell to save the soul of his beloved may seem like an unlikely choice for a video game, but Electronic Arts...
Dangerous Seductress (DVD)
I love these Indonesian beauts. During a time when filmmaking was somewhat at it’s peak. These Indo’s found it in their little itty bitty hearts to make films for the masses. What they had to do to sell their product was to give the North American viewing audience all...
Dance of the Dead
Scripted by Joe Ballarini, Gregg Bishop’s energetic, spirited 80’s style zombie comedy horror pays affectionate tribute to accepted classics like RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD, overlooked corny gems like NEON MANIACS and even the peerless 80’s oeuvre of high school movie...
Masters of Horror: The Damned Thing
The Dammed Thing is based on a teleplay written by Richard C. Matheson son of legendary horror writer Richard Matheson from the short story by Ambrose Bierce. This Masters of Horror episode also has a great director behind the camera; Tobe Hooper, the man who directed...
Damned By Dawn
I have not seen so many CGI flying skeletons since someone in the late eighties tried to pawn them off as real ones in one of those paranormal shows. In all seriousness, this film, Damned By Dawn, has Evil Dead and Army of Darkness written all over it. But I can’t rip...
Damien: The Omen II
Damien: Omen II is an effort to further develop the theme of the Antichrist’s ascent in the world as first revealed in The Omen. However, in lieu of the fact that William Holden (after turning down the starring role in the original) plays Damien’s father, the script...
Dagon
Director Stuart Gordon, producer Brian Yuzna, and screenwriter Dennis Paoli come together once again for the most atmospheric adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft to date. Dagon does many things, the most admirable of which is the director’s decision to alleviate a lot of...
Halloween: 30th Anniversary Commemorative Edition
With Rob Zombie's re-imaging of this horror classic to soon hit our theaters nationwide, I could not help but throw up a review of the film that many believe is the first real teenage horror film. The film that bought up the phrase dead teenager movie and paved the...
Hack
From the first scene in which iconic slasher villain Kane Hodder is stalked through the woods and beheaded (ah, sweet payback!), you can tell that writer-director Matt Flynn’s new film is going to be another, belated post-modern horror flick. In spite of some lazy...
Halloween II – Movie Review
When Rob Zombie’s Halloween reimagining came out a few years ago, many critics panned the film. This included a small group of people whom Zombie considered his friends in the business, and ones that call themselves true horror fans. I did not find the film to be a...
Halloween
I'm kind of still dwelling with the fact if I liked this film or just thought it was ok. As you can see from my rating I'm leaning more towards liking Rob Zombie's version of Halloween, but there were just some things that I liked about the original film better. There...
Hallows Eve: Slaughter on Second Street
Everyone involved in HALLOWS EVE: SLAUGHTER ON SECOND STREET was obviously full of affection for their project, from the director to the actors right down to the local musicians who provided the film’s soundtrack. I wanted to feel that love too—I really did—but I...
