My Blog
Recently I posted a review about the Italian horror film Suspiria. That review exposed (in a non gratuitous Boob shot kind of way) how my fetish for horror came to be.
Some of you asked appallingly who would subject me to such things at such a young age, while others began to better understand why I may seem a little “off kilter.”…
The Beastmaster - “B” at it’s Best

There are certain movies that I can watch repeatedly - to the point where the DVD/VHS needs to be replaced due to extreme signs of usage - and never tire of them. Movies like The Wedding Singer, that is so ridiculous, and 80’s and yet speaks to me on so many levels.

ok. So time for one more confession. I’m a big Brendan Frasier fan.
Now I know what you are thinking. He is no Brad Pitt, and you might have a point there but I have a thing for guys with a sense of humor, who know how to really laugh…. Brad Pitt cheats on his wife.
Enough said.
The original Prom Night, filmed from start to finish on one whooping month, stars Jamie Lee Curtis in another role that helped earn her status of being one of Hollywood’s “scream queens.” Only in this movie, Jamie doesn’t play so much of a damsel in distress as she does a damsel who takes action.
Have any of you ever had a bad guy that you wanted to the beat the snot out of one of the good guys? People talk about rooting for the underdog all the time, but what about rooting for the killer? Feeling glad that some arrogant yokel who does nothing more than take up unnecessary [...]
