Masters of Horror: We All Scream For Ice Cream
When I was a child, my mother had my room decorated with clowns. She never understood why when I was a kid I never wanted to sleep in my room. It was always because those dam clowns scared the shit out of me. I never told her this until I was twenty one years old,...
WAZ
Here’s a nightmarish noir based around the population geneticist George R Price’s mathematical equation of W delta Z. Price’s theory disproved the existence of altruism and claimed that the concept of selflessness was a fallacy. This bleak conclusion is matched by the...
Watchmen
I never knew much about WATCHMEN until a few years ago when co-workers of mine introduced me to the story and talked about it being one of the best graphic novels they ever had read. A few months ago, one of my good friends let me borrow the graphic novel so I could...
Wasting Away
In a time when even the stand-out new zombie movies (like DIARY OF THE DEAD) are treading on familiar ground both stylistically and thematically, it’s rare to find an entry in the genre that demonstrates both originality and wit. WASTING AWAY does just that in its...
The Wasp Women
The second of five features which producer/director Roger Corman would release in 1960, The Wasp Woman is acutely aware of the time in which it was made as the production reflects the filmmaker’s concern with such topics as gender, stampeding big business, and...
Masters of Horror: The Washingtonians
THE WASHINGTONIANS is the broadest MASTERS OF HORROR episode to date, with a consistently off-the-wall tone somehow inevitable in a season featuring Meat Loaf skinning himself and a male doctor being grotesquely abused with his own equipment at an abortion clinic....
War of the Worlds (DVD)
I would certainly say that if a major blockbuster is in the works and you know about it, and it’s also public domain, why not jump on the wagon and give the folks your interpretation of the sci fi classic. So when the weak viewing public see WAR OF THE WORLDS on the...
War of the Worlds
“War of the Worlds” is like a snack or drink that tastes good going in, but leaves you with a bland after-taste. On the surface, the movie is filled with dazzling special effects, great action sequences, and a good performance by Tom Cruise (I can’t believe I just...
War of the Worlds
Time has not been kind to Byron Haskin’s sci-fi alien invasion classic, The War of the Worlds. As humanity has gotten further and further from the Cold War, we are now able to view the film for what it truly is: A piece of American propaganda at its moralistic worst....
John Carpenter’s The Ward
John Carpenter’s first feature film since the disappointing GHOSTS OF MARS sees him in the obvious guise of director-for-hire, as he was for that movie and other lesser career steps like MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN… as opposed to the wild, inventive, cynical genius...
Wannabe
It’s nighttime, and a young woman named Viola (Steffani Pieart) walks alone through a darkened street. Approaching a mansion-style home she knocks and, in lieu of a welcome, is told by the tall somber gentleman who answers the door (Andrew, played by Robert Webster)...
Waning Solstice
Well, where do I begin? every once in a while I get a film from Custom Flix, however I'm not sure what the deal is with that company as they always send their movies to my old mailing address. You seriously don't know how many times I've e-mailed them my new address...
The Wanderer
Like I said a million times before, when it comes to reviewing one of the many independent horror films out there, and every filmmaker in the world tries to buddy up with you to get a good review. You just simply have to put your foot down and either: A: Don't reply...
Walled In
Based on Serge Broselot's bestselling French novel "Les Emmeures"; WALLED IN is film that moves somewhat slow most of the time but does have a unique and interesting story with a few plot twists and some interesting elements that we've seen used in horror films...
