Sleepy Hollow (1999) Review

Tim Burton has had a rough decade.  He is under fire from both critics and fans alike for failing to hit a major cinematic home run since he gave birth to Big Fish which despite having Burton attached, still won over many as something of an “indie darling” motion picture.  Being a fan of...

Trick ‘R Treat (2009) Review

The Wraith (1986) Review

I should really change the name of our site to “Alex shows you why the only movies you ever really need to see were made from about 1979 to 1989.”  That’s not true, because some great movies came out before and after that decade long window, but the more and more I dig into...

Necronomicon (1993) Review

Necronomicon is a lesser-known entry into the peculiar sub-division of horror known as the anthology film.  If you are unfamiliar with anthology flicks, they often house 3 or more short stories with a framing device often referred to as a “wraparound” loosely tying them all together and sometimes acting as another story altogether.  Necronomicon...

Hell Night starring Linda Blair (1981)

Hell Night doesn’t look like much on the surface.  A slasher released in the heyday of slasher-mania, it also throws its hat into the ring of the “fraternity/sorority initiations gone wrong” sub-genre which saw many young, perky, and nubile young men and women pitted against murder happy psychos and sickos who are often to...
