House of 1000 Corpses (2003)...Crazed...Visceral...Genius!

House of 1000 Corpses (2003)…Crazed…Visceral…Genius!

It’s no secret that I obsessively love me some Rob Zombie and anyone who knows me well, knows I’ve been a fan longer than I can clearly remember. LOVE HIM! Love the man, love the music, hell, Living Dead Girl was my wedding song (much to the chagrin of my lovely, if slightly puritanical, mother-in-law). So with all this (mildly unhealthy) love floating around, it’s no surprise that, upon hearing…

The Conjuring 2 (2016)...A Highly Anticipated Sequel That Doesn't Quite Measure Up

The Conjuring 2 (2016)…A Highly Anticipated Sequel That Doesn’t Quite Measure Up

The Conjuring 2, perhaps the most anticipated horror film of the year is, admittedly, one of those movies that made me do my fangirl happy dance when it was first announced. Let’s face it, the original Conjuring was damn near perfect, an undeniably epic horror masterwork that combined director James Wan’s ever evolving visual style with powerhouse performances by a phenomenally talented cast. How…

Felicia’s Reviews: Green Room (2016)

Green Room is by far one of the best films of 2016, and you probably have never seen or even heard about it…yet. The film starts off with an indie punk band called the Ain’t Rights which includes bassist Pat (a superb Anton Yelchin), singer Tiger (Callum Turner), guitarist Sam (Alia Shawkat) and drummer Reece (Joe Cole). After accepting a surprise gig in the middle of nowhere (Oregon to be…

Martyrs (2015)...A Pale Imitation of a Startling Original

Martyrs…it’s one hell of a messed up cinematic experience. Any way you slice or dice it, the story of two young women whose quest for vengeance leads them into the clutches of a depraved group of people trying to create modern day martyrs, is one of those epic mind fuck flicks that will stay with you for a vast eternity, hovering at the back of your mind like a nugget of pure, twisted evil, just…

Review: Kiss of the Damned (2012)

Vampires, they’re a sexy bunch ain’t they? Of all the villains to grace the big screen, vampires are the ones most often portrayed as eternally beautiful, desirable and with an irresistible allure that makes them almost perfect predators. Now I’m obviously not speaking of the white-washed, bloodless, toothless Twilight bunch (you all know I can’t stand that shit), but vamps like the classic Sir…

Legendary Musician & Star of The Hunger David Bowie, Dead at 69

A veteran of more than fifty films and television shows, Scrimm will always be…

The Forest (2016)...A Messy Ghost Story That Quickly Loses its Way

Aokigahara, the vast green sea of trees that surrounds the northwest base of Mount Fuji is, at the very least, a location ripe with cinematic possibilities. Dubbed the suicide forest, Aokigahara is Japan’s most popular spot for ending one’s life and is tragically the site of some 100 suicides per year. Oh yeah, the movie didn’t make that up, it’s a real place where sad people go to die, and this…

The Terrible Ten: 2015's Most Avoidable Horror Movies

Oh the giddy joy of the “the worst list”…it’s awful to admit it, but writing about terrible movies is so much fun I’m almost ashamed of myself…I’m not quite there yet, but I’m working up to feeling actual shame. But let’s not talk about that, instead let’s focus on the worst, most awful horror movies that the last year has had to offer…come on now, you know you want to. I gotta say, 2015 has been…

Felicia's Reviews: Krampus (2015)

Inspired by ancient European folklore, the titular villain in Krampus is a humongous horned monster who torments naughty children and anyone else in its path who forsakes holiday traditions. Interesting concept… The film itself features a dysfunctional family’s festive antics, and the young boy Max (Emjay Anthony) who loses faith in the holidays, and this loss of innocence is the catalyst that…

10 Must Watch Horror Movies of 2015

It’s that magical time of year again lovelies, when reviewers, bloggers and others with far too much time on our hands, look back at the last 12 months of movie releases and shamelessly weed through them as we peck at, dissect, deconstruct and generally tear apart the efforts of others, all for the annual Best and Worst Horror Movies of the Year list. Fortunately, 2015 was not at all a bad year…

Radcliffe and McAvoy Go Slumming in Victor Frankenstein (2015)

It’s always disappointing when great actors find themselves neck deep in terrible movies, mostly because history has shown that they can do SO much better. James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe, two of the most talented actors working today, have most definitely done better than this, so much better in fact, that I really can’t help but wonder why on earth they’re even in this awful movie. And Victor…

Anarchy Parlor (2014)…An Unfulfilling Tale of Skin & Suffering

Torture porn…don’t you just hate that term? It implies that someone, somewhere, gets off on watching people suffer excruciating torment, and although that may be true, I prefer to think that most horror fans are only trying to test our limits when watching flicks like Hostel (which I loved), Turistas (meh) and The Human Centipede (which I hated). Anarchy Parlor is the latest addition to the…

Pay the Ghost (2015)...Probably Not the Worst Film You'll See This Year

Pay the Ghost (2015)...Probably Not the Worst Film You'll See This Year.

Do you remember, way back in the 1990’s, when Nicolas Cage was hailed as one of the greatest living actors? Seems unlikely right now, I know, because if one were to measure his greatness by his last 30 or so films, I could only assume that his talents were grossly overestimated. Make no mistake, Cage’s performances in such classics as his award winning Leaving Las Vegas, Raising Arizona, Face-Off…
