Evil Dead (1981) Movie Review
A lot of people find it hard to believe now, but “Evil Dead,” the first film in the “Evil Dead” series (it includes sequels “Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn” and “Army of Darkness”) was actually not a comedy/horror spoof, but a pure horror film. Or Splatter film, since the movie is essentially a retread [...]

It wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say that you could throw a rock at the present Asian film industry and hit a dozen or so ghost stories either being conceived, are presently in production, or are getting ready to be released. What’s the difference between ghost stories and horror movies? Ghost stories [...]

Besides being incredibly lacking in originality, scares, or even those small guilty pleasures I always manage to find in any Slasher film, the new British Slasher flick “Long Time Dead” doesn’t even have the decency to flash some T&A in my direction. How utterly…lacking. Or pathetic, might be the right word.
“Long Time Dead” is [...]
Return of the Living Dead (1985) Movie Review
There are only two correct ways to approach a Zombies Attack movie: either take the whole thing seriously (Fulci’s “Zombie”) or go the spoof route (“The Dead Hate the Living”). Dan O’Bannon’s “Return of the Living Dead” is really more of a spoof than a serious film, although its comedy is more along of what [...]

The South Korean horror film “Nightmare” is a slasher film in the vein of “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” with heavy doses of supernatural elements ala the Japanese film “Ring.” It’s a pretty standard Asian horror film, with a pretty standard ghost, a standard female heroine, and (dare I say it) pretty standard [...]

A friend once asked me, “Do you read Anne Rice?” To which I replied (flippantly), “Do I look like a lonely housewife or a Goth-wannabe to you?” Author Anne Rice is a writer of fiction known for her novels about Euro trash vampires who seduces lonely women and makes all their fantasies come true. Or [...]

In one particularly telling scene in Guillermo del Toro’s “Blade 2,” a vampire is nailed to the wall by another character’s sword, but instead of pulling the sword out and escaping that way, the vampire scurries up the wall thus slicing open his pelvis area! That scene epitomizes the feel, look, and execution of “Blade [...]

The phrase “Two minds are better than one” seems to hold sway when it comes to sibling filmmakers. Which might explain the recent boom in multiple filmmakers from the same family attached to the same film project. America boasts almost a half dozen that comes immediately to mind, with the better-known ones being the Wachowskis [...]

The Mothman Prophecies is based on a novel of the same name by John A. Keel, a real-life journalist who supposedly wrote about “true events” that occurred in the small town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia in 1966.
