Sometimes I miss the 80’s, and sometimes I wanna hit myself with a large hammer for missing the 80’s. However, some of the radest oddest horror films are children of that neon decade…behold The Return of the Living Dead. Punk charged and filled with stereotypical rock misfits “Return” could quite possibly be the quintessential 80’s horror film.

This review contains 8 films. Much like my Grindhouse review, I feel it necessary to review the event as an experience instead of separate films. As much as I love plot summaries I’m cutting these a lot short. Horrorfest on a whole should be seen in two days of butt numbing terror. I had missed the original set of films in 2006 so I was very gung-ho about …

30 Days of Night was one of my favorite horror comics I have ever read. Steve Niles (writer) and Ben Templesmith (artist) create a tale that definitely gives you the barf shivers. Not your regular vampire tale. And my favorite part is the effort of the film makers took to make the film look as much like the comic as possible.
The movie opens and gives …

What’s nice about most remakes these days is that they have a really decent budget and the film quality always comes out superior to its predecessor. But as hot as your babes are, and much money as you may have…it doesn’t always mean your script is gonna stand up to the original.
Let me start of with the cast, which is pretty great. Sean Bean as John Ryder …

What so many horror movies are missing these days are a nice honestly creepy intro. Dead Silence is odd and gives you creepy from the very beginning. Remember that old 1978 psychological thriller Magic? It starred Anthony Hopkins, Ann Margaret and an absolutely terrifying ventriloquist dummy. Nightmares! No really! Puppets make me pee out my ass! So just the sight of the movie poster for …

The movie theater is in desperate need of more films that are more like events. Grindhouse not only invites you to see 2 off-the-wall, shoot-em-up, blood-and-guts, t-and-a fests, but, gives you an experience that most of this generation has never partaken of. The glory of the double feature and actually sitting in a theatre and seeing what is considered an exploitation film…well, except for Disney cartoons.

Ah, the holiday season is upon us and what better way to celebrate then making some cocoa, curling up on the couch with the one you love, dimming the lights and watching a slasher flick. Black Christmas aka Black X-Mas gave me nostalgic tingles all over. I’m a huge fan of the 1974 original starring Olivia Hussey and Margot Kidder. Even Andrea Martin of SCTV fame was in the …

In my review for The Hills Have Eyes I forgot to mention the awesome scary make-up effects used to create the mutants that inhabit the actual hills. The hills of this deserted nuclear test site are filled with people that have been deformed from radiation poisoning and decades of in-breeding in the deserted mines that have been all but forgotten by civilization, until now.
