Critters 4 (1992)

Those lovable furballs are back and this time it’s on a spaceship. I always love how these movie series have to have an “in space” installment. It takes FOREVER for anything to start happening in this movie. The critters don’t show up until about halfway through the movie. Surprisingly, it has Angela Bassett and Brad Dourif. Did they read the script? Or maybe they…

X (2022)

I am not understanding the audience's love for this one. It’s a basic plot about filming a porno in backwoods Texas that turns deadly at the hands of an elderly couple? It would have to be Texas, wouldn’t it? It just took forever to go anywhere and it’s only 106 minutes long. When the blood eventually does start to flow in the second act,…

The Forever Purge (2021)

I was expecting just another boring Purge movie and it is really not that. It starts with the return of the Purge, but after the one night of mayhem is over, something is different. Various factions decide they don’t want to be done Purging and things get out of control very quickly. The main cast is then faced with a difficult task of survival…

Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)

This is probably the 4th or 5th time I've seen this movie and I still don't know what the hell is going on. It's just such a writing mess and really seems like they were just going for upping the gross out factor. They succeeded, but that's not enough for a good horror movie. You need to also have a coherent story with stakes…

Rawhead Rex (1986)

From the twisted mind of Clive Barker, comes this bad 80s flick that had some potential, but ultimately fell flat for a variety of reasons. The plot involves the resurrection of a demonic boogeyman named Rawhead Rex, who just needs to munch on some people after being out of commission for hundreds of years. It takes place in rural Ireland where the police have…

Fright Night (1985)

It's tough being a 30-year-old dude teenager who knows your next door neighbor is a vampire and yet no one will believe you. So, you take your dumbass to the washed up vampire hunter actor turned TV personality to ask for help. What could go wrong? For a mid-80s horror classic, the movie has a great concept, but falls short on some of the…

Candyman (2021)

Say his name five times and try not to die! This 2021 remake was co-written by Jordan Peele (director of Get Out, Us, Nope) and tries to breathe some fresh life into a 2nd tier horror icon character: The Candyman. I will say that there was a lot to like about the tone and style of how it created the tension. The story was…

The People Under the Stairs (1991)

From the twisted mind of Wes Craven, comes this bizarre horror classic. What I liked most about it was how it had all the tension and stylings of a 90s horror movie, but all the roles were flipped around. The kids were the heroes. The monsters were the helpers. The normies were the sick and twisted villains. If you go in expecting some cookie-cutter…
