Tweet-Size Horror: Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)
October 31, 2009 – 3:23 pm | Comments

Halloween 5: Everything done well in 4 is ruined here. Annoying characters, lame comic relief, and lack of tension abounds. 3/10

Film Review – The Fourth Kind
October 31, 2009 – 1:48 am | Comments

The Fourth Kind opens with two lies.  Milla Jovovich (playing herself) says that every scene in the film is supported by actual archival footage and that what we are about to see is very disturbing.  …

Tweet-Size Horror: Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)
October 30, 2009 – 9:01 pm | Comments

October 28, 2009 – 10:51 pm | Comments

Ping Pong Playa is an amusing movie about a Chinese guy (C-Dub) that thinks he’s a basketball playa (in every sense of that retarded word). He is a freeloader from his friends and family and …

Tweet-Size Horror: Halloween II (1981)
October 28, 2009 – 1:57 pm | Comments

Halloween II (1981): Continues right where the first left off. Unfortunately the tone and gore don’t mesh with the original perfectly. 7/10

Film Review – Let The Right One In
October 28, 2009 – 8:19 am | Comments

Let The Right One In is a vampire movie from Sweden that isn’t what I thought it would be.   I really am used to vampire films being very suspenseful with some crazy jump scenes …

Film Review – My Name Is Bruce
