Brainjacked Oh dear, there comes a time as a reviewer when you are push, push, pushed to the limit of what you can stand but you forge ahead, you push on because darn it, you have a job to do. I dunno though kids, lately, well lately I am feeling the weight of this hobby.… Continue reading Brainjacked – review

Zombie Abomination/Zombie Atrocity – The Italian Zombie Movie Parts 1 and 2 – REVIEW
For sick people like me, horror movies were a staple of my formative years. and when it came to zombie movies I loved the Italian stuff. This wasn’t to say that I didn’t love the films George Romero was making but for pure nastiness and weirdness the Italians were where it was at. The plots… Continue reading Zombie Abomination/Zombie Atrocity – The Italian Zombie Movie Parts 1 and 2 – REVIEW
Buddha Boy – review
So I am onto the second of writer Kathe Koja’s Young Adult novels and man, she has totally opened my eyes to the category as far as its potential. I realize that people like S.E. Hinton were writing books that were slotted to this age range but to see what Koja is doing with her… Continue reading Buddha Boy – review
straydog – a review
If there is something good you can say about a book written with young adults in mind it is to say that they got their audience right and played to them directly, treating them as the young adults that they are. Too often the YA market is filled with pandering morality tales or books that… Continue reading straydog – a review
Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill! – review
Easter Bunny, Kill, Kill I am officially old. When I was a kid I would have gotten a kick out of a movie like this – gross, rude, and pulling no punches. Now though, well, I just need more. The fact is that this looks far too much like the movies my friends and I… Continue reading Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill! – review
Temptation – movie review
Wow am I over the vampire trend. Now, to be completely honest I have been ‘over’ it for a while, but jeepers, we are definitely in the doldrums of it now. I mean, we have all had to suffer through some terrible vampire films over the years, just as we suffered through bad slashers and… Continue reading Temptation – movie review
Babysitter Wanted – movie review
Well, isn’t this a nice palate cleanser after some pretty awful films I have been watching for review purposes. On first blush this reminded me quite a bit of a similarly themed babysitter film which I adore called House of the Devil but just when I was getting bummed out at how similar the two… Continue reading Babysitter Wanted – movie review
Slasher – movie review
Oh boy, oh boy. Wow. What do you get when you cross Jason Voorhees with Fred Krueger and Leatherface (whose name is like Bubba or something, I forget)? You get this awful film which wants so terribly to be cool that it starts aping The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in the worst of ways. What do… Continue reading Slasher – movie review
Creatures from the Pink Lagoon – review
Oh, Netflix, you have done it again, presenting me the gift of a movie I had never heard of yet am glad I saw. This time it’s Creatures From the Pink Lagoon which is a zombie film with a very gay twist. There is a scourge in small town America in this black and white… Continue reading Creatures from the Pink Lagoon – review
Werewolf – the Devil’s Hound – review
As a movie fan, and a nerdy one at that, the fun of it all is when you find those gems that have fallen between the cracks without ever getting the just due. You live for those films. Well, I wish I could tell you I had found one of those gems but, alas, that… Continue reading Werewolf – the Devil’s Hound – review
Rise of the Scarecrows – review
As a filmgoer and a reviewer it is rare, oh so rare, to find a film that speaks to the beauty of cinema and to the existential loneliness found in the soul of the philosopher who gazes into the well of forever and returns to tell the rest of the world what they have seen.… Continue reading Rise of the Scarecrows – review
Sympathy – review
Sympathy, by first time director Andrew Moorman, is a very rare film in the indie ranks where a director takes a small budget and instead of trying to over-do things, he takes what he has and makes a solid film with it. It's admirable to see a young director accept the limitations he was given… Continue reading Sympathy – review
Red Sands – review
The heck of the thing with Genie's (or Djinn if you wanna be correct about things) is that no one seems to get the poor fella's right. I mean, the closest that I can think of is maybe The Wishmaster, which, while not a good film or series, does do right by them, sorta. I… Continue reading Red Sands – review
