To this day, there remains something insanely special about director Brian De Palma’s Carrie. It is based on the once-discarded novel by Stephen King, but was painstakingly adapted for the screen by Lawrence D. Cohen. Cohen got everything about King’s first novel right ...
Perhaps it is the close-up on the eyeball in the shadows. Piercing. Constant. Terrifying. Or maybe it is the SCREAM that stops a silent movie, separating the audience into steady streams of shock as a motion picture stops its own rollout to pay tribute ...
“Blessed be the New Founders! Blessed be the new America!” The Tea Party, born out of frustration from having their conservative voices and agenda ignored, are now in power. What a difference five long years make! When the original film was made ...
It’s been eleven long years since I first saw this horror film and, yeah, I am still talking about it. Why? Because it’s THAT good and it turns out that there are still people out there who are virgins to its twisted tales of morbidity. And now Scream Factory gives us a ...
There’s a spot on the wall. It wasn’t there before. You move closer. What is it? And so, you move even closer. Closer still. And then the spot moves. It’s an eye! Someone is inside the house. Holy shit, man. Screaming and running away are the only choices! ...

Hammer Films shakes off the cobwebs with Dracula A.D. 1972, their funkiest flick to date. Never their best effort, this baptism of the walking dead is certainly entertaining in its effort to resurrect the original “Bat” man. And our first glimpse of Christopher Lee resurrected ...
Marvel’s Green Goblin mask on the grate of the black Western Star semi-truck; that is one key memory I have of Vestron Video Collector’s Series latest release. A steamroller without a driver crushing the body and skull of a little league baseball player is another. Wilmington, ...
This is a low budget horror/comedy in which an exorcism is performed on a motorcycle. If you are already groaning, stop reading. The shit isn’t going to get any better for you. Still here? Good. Allow me to continue ...
