Water Wars (2014)

Water wars is a movie which has a lot of nude girls some being stripped and some being making love scenes and apart from that this movie has nothing but useless fighting and baseless running around here and there and…

Empire of Ash 2 (1988)

Empire of has a lot going for it at first glance. Plenty of action, lots of guns, lots of armour clad vehicles, topless girls, rock soundtrack and plenty of extras. The direction is decent for the most part too in…

Getting Lucky (1990)

Getting Lucky, a largely inept and amateurish exploitation flick, follows the adventures of a stereotypical high school nerd in love with the pretty blonde (and bland) cheerleader. Upon finding a leprechaun in a beer bottle, our hero goes on a…

Corona Zombies (2020)

Corona Zombies. I expected another cheap movie that never should have been done that seem to fill up the horror genre on every movie website these days. Sure, this movie was low budget but it was very cleverly done.I loved…

Nazis at the Center of the Earth (2012)

Butter up the popcorn, turn down the lights, and strap in for this roller-coaster gore-fest from Asylum Pictures. It starts off a bit slow, but once things get moving, prepare for a real treat. It’s a comic book adventure come…

Cucuy: The Boogeyman (2018)

Based on a true Mexican urban legend about a boogeyman who abducts, & eats, naughty children, I am pleased to report that “Cucuy: The Boogeyman” is a step above the usual Syfy Channel movie. I admit that I’d never heard…

NightWars (1988)

I have commented before on how I generally find David A. Prior’s ideas to be really cool, but his direction to be very poor. The big exception to this was `Lock ‘N Load,’ which I found to be great. Other…

So Help Me God -Unproduced

A regretfully unproduced movie to be directed by Michael Anderson and written by Larry Cohen

High on the Hog (2019)

“High On The Hog” That Stars The Legendary Character Actor Sid Haig An Superb Performance That Will Definitely Called To Be One Of His Very Best Movie Roles Of His Career Who Also Produced This Film As Well As “Big…

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)

Following the success of the 2002 adaptation from video game to film that was ‘Resident Evil’, comes its tantalizingly-trailered sequel, ‘Resident Evil: Apocalypse’. I have to say, I was entranced by the trailer of this film. I seriously thought that…

Drive In Massacre (1976)

or the type of movie this is, given when it was made, and a total lack of big name stars ( or small name stars for that matter ) this film is very watchable. The players, none of whom are…

Jack And The Movies

Even though it is hot here in the MidWest, fall is peaking its colorful head around the corner. I look forward to the fall because a mantle of peace and cooler temperatures descends on this small town of mine. This…

Diners, The Movies and Genuine Experience

Diners, THe Movies And I love east coast diners. There is a sense of wonder whenever you enter one. Usually the waiters and waitresses have spent decades working there and even upon first viewing they drip with a sense of…

Community, The Movies and 9/11

A community is a group of people who share something in common. You can define a community by the shared attributes of the people in it and/or by the strength of the connections among them. You need a bunch of…

Hollywood and The Theaters, Irreconcilable Differences?

I do not know if I am the only one, but the world is changing fast. I see all the prognosticators exclaim that movie going is back to where it was in 2019. To be frank I kind of don’t…

The Headless Eyes (1971)

My eyes! AAOOOAAAUUUGGHH! My eyes! That’s what I screamed myself after watching this atrocity of a film. No gore, no effects, no acting, no sense. The movie opens with a guy robbing a woman’s apartment while she sleeps, and when…

Cult of the Cobra (1955)

Set in 1945, six American GIs crash a cult that worships snakes, and are threatened to be killed, one by one, for their misdeeds. Back home in New York City, their fates start to unravel. Faith Domergue is amazingly beautiful,…

Corridors of Blood (1958)

This is a deceptive little film. First off, because it was made and sat for four years before release, you might be inclined to think it is a dud–but that’s far from true. The film is very good–good enough to…

Space Master X-7 (1958)

Behind this bland, forgettable and indescriptive title is one of that decade’s more interesting low budget items. “Blood Rust” was probably the script’s original name, and this refers to the red coloring of Mars which, as is found out on…

Blood Freak (1972)

I get so emotional whenever I attempt to write a review about “Blood Freak”. The last review I wrote was not accepted by IMDB as I got too out of line and my review degenerated into uncontrolled bantering. Just know…
