George Romero will, forever, be remembered as the Godfather of zombie movies but he has done other non-zombie stuff, and The Crazies is one of them.
The plot is quite simple:
A biological weapon gone awry is only the start of problems in the little town of Evan’s City, Pennsylvania. Bouts of insanity in the populace...

Grindhouse is a 42nd Street style double feature comprising of Rodriguez’s Planet Terror (reviewed here) and Tarantino’s Death Proof (reviewed here). Before, after and between the two films are trailers for (non-existent) movies. Both movies, mainly Planet Terror, have added grain to give them that extra 70’s feel.
This review isn’t about Planet Terror or...

After the awesomeness that was Planet Terror I was almost looking forward to Death Proof (the second half of the Grindhouse package). Almost, as I’m really not a fan of Tarantino’s films.
The story is your basic killer-in-a-car thing, this time it’s a stuntman in an apparently ‘death proof’ car.
The film starts of as I...

Planet Terror is the first of a double feature known as Grindhouse. I’m going to review Planet Terror, as a single movie, same with its partner, Death Proof, then review them as a package (with the fake trailers and what-not) as Grindhouse.

Orgroff the Mad Mutilator (aka: Mad Mutilator) is a French film from 1983, although it looks more like 1973 if anything else. The story is off the archetypical hut-in-the-forest dwelling psycho who murders passersby who stop for a leek by the road side.
Gory murders? Check.
Hot chicks? (benefit of the doubt...

In keeping with the seasonal theme, here is Tales From the Crypt and the quite festive episode they produced in 1989, I believe. Keep a close eye on the credits, as Fred Dekker (Night of the Creeps, Monster Squad) wrote this episode, and Robert Zemeckis (Cast Away, Beowulf, dozens of other big budget Hollywood...

It has been a while since I have seen a halfway interesting crime drama, and even longer since I’ve seen one so willing to throw caution to the wind and incorporate elements and themes into one movie that are notoriously mutually exclusive. No Right Turn deserves credit for, if nothing else, not making a...
