This has been a strange year, to say the very, very least. Strange, scary, hard, pick your descriptor and plug away. With the world shut down to various degrees it has meant I have had a lot more time to watch movies – hey man, I wrote enough books this year, gimme a break… Continue reading The Movie Cavalcade – The Great, The Bad, The Fun

The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane – review
When we movie fans wax poetic about movies many of us long for the halcyon days of yore when films felt dangerous and directors were loose cannons. We talk about how great those movies were and how things have never been the same since. Well, ya know, maybe it’s not always such a bad… Continue reading The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane – review
KIDNAPPED – review
For some reason I am inherently drawn to movies that people say are ‘brutal’. Not the ones that are just gore for the sake of gore because that was done in the ‘80’s and then more realistically in the ‘90’s. I mean the movies that supposed screw with your head because they are so… Continue reading KIDNAPPED – review
Bite Marks–review
Oh vampires, you are so darned popular these days it’s sickening. I realize that you guys are hip, and have that whole danger aspect that the kids love these days but darn it I really need you guys to lay low for a while. It’s just too much. Give the other monsters a chance,… Continue reading Bite Marks–review
George–A Zombie Intervention – review
George – A Zombie Intervention - review Ya know, I love zombies as much, no, more than the next guy but man, I tell you what, they are starting to get like vampires – which is to say that they are overexposed. The good thing is that zombies are still pretty interesting, and there are… Continue reading George–A Zombie Intervention – review

11-11-11 Movie review UGH! That is my review of this film. Three letters, one word, one feeling – UGH! Man alive, I tell you what, I dragged my girlfriend to a dumpy mall an hour and a half away from where we live to see what I thought would be a creepy little movie only… Continue reading 11-11-11 Movie review
The Coffin – review
Something American films have never gotten right when it comes to modern ghost stories is the sense of dread that the rest of the world, especially in Asia, have nailed even in the worst of their films. There is something that perhaps we have lost in American culture, the reverence and fear of the… Continue reading The Coffin – review
Movie Shorts
Darn these movie shorts are riding up on me. Shark Night Good, ridiculous fun that is utterly brainless and knows it. Great crowd movie. Makes me feel like an 'uncut' version is waiting in the wings to be released on video. Hmm. Make sure to watch after the credits. WOW! 6.5 out of 10 … Continue reading Movie Shorts
Asylum Seekers–review
It is really a shame that for most directors and filmmakers the only time in their careers that they have the freedom to experiment with storytelling because I think we the audience lose out on a lot of really interesting work. Alas, the perception, and perhaps reality, is that general audiences don’t want to… Continue reading Asylum Seekers–review
Five Across The Eyes – review
I am writing a very, very, very brief review of this because it really doesn’t deserve more than that. I don’t like to be mean about things connected to the arts because most people that do this stuff do it for passion and for love. Sure, make money, some make a LOT of money,… Continue reading Five Across The Eyes – review
