My Little Eye (2002) Movie Review
In what can only amount to cosmic irony, movies have begun to use the popularity of Reality TV as inspiration for their own plot; if Reality TV was meant to satirize real life, movies are now satirizing Reality TV as a false vehicle for satirizing real life. Get it? “Series 7: The Contenders” turned shows [...]

To say that the filmmakers of “Cube 2: Hypercube” knew what they were doing, or where they were going, would be giving them too much credit. Similar to its original, “Cube 2″ is an Idea Movie: that is, it’s the movie’s premise that is of utmost importance, with story and plot secondary — if that. [...]

It is incumbent on anyone who plans on picking up “Demon Island” to notice the title, the cover, and the fact that the movie used to go by “Pinata: Survival Island”, and make their final choices appropriately. It goes without saying that “Demon Island” is no masterpiece; in fact, it’s barely a serviceable comedy. What? [...]

Valentine is another in a long line of movies about “hip” teens/20-somethings being “haunted by their past.” It’s been done to death in recent years, starting with the God-awful I Know What You Did Last Summer and it’s obscene sequel and ilk. I usually know what I’m going to get, and I usually know the [...]

I wish I could tell you with some measure of certainty about the events that take place in “Fear Dot Com”, but unfortunately I can’t. The reason is simple: the movie is so dark, so swamped in shadows and night, that it’s next to impossible to make out anything. We aren’t talking about the “so [...]

In case you’ve been living under a rock, Brett Ratner’s “Red Dragon” is based on Thomas Harris’ novel of the same name, which was first adapted into a feature length film by Michael Mann (”Ali”) in 1986 as “Manhunter”. This was before Hannibal the Cannibal entered the American lexicon, and before the success of “Silence [...]

So sue me if I think director Steve Beck has a bright future in the horror genre. (Or at least, the horror genre as it exists today.) He’s already proven to me (if to no one else, natch) with his feature debut “13 Ghosts” that his background in visual special effects adds tremendously to his [...]

“Vampires: Los Muertos” is the sequel to John Carpenter’s 1998 “Vampires”, starring James Woods as a vampire hunter who leads the charge against a dastardly Eurotrash vampire with plans to make himself invulnerable to the vampire’s biggest enemy, sunlight. The sequel, written and directed by Tommy Lee Wallace and produced by Carpenter’s company (and that, [...]

“Bloodletting” is a low budget film that lets us in on the little known fact that, underneath all that blood spilling and mass killing, serial killers are people just like us. Or something like that. Written and directed by Matthew Walsh, “Bloodletting” tells the tale of Serena (Ariauna Albright), a bored young woman who decides [...]

I wouldn’t go so far as to say that “Eight Legged Freaks”, a movie about mutated spiders that go on the attack, is a good film. I’m just saying it’s not all that bad; in fact, it’s actually quite fun to watch. “Freaks” is a throwback picture that manages intentional humor by being self-irreverent and [...]
