Here we go again. People want more Chucky and so they keep finding ways to bring him back. The plastic from part 2 is remade into a new Good Guy doll complete with the soul of The Lakeshore Strangler. After he kills the CEO of the toy company, it's time to find Andy Barclay. OK. Hold up for a second. If I were Chucky,…
I like to think of this as a distant cousin to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. You got your group of friends on a vacay road trip, you got inbred hillbilly cannibals, you got detours that lead to certain death. What this movie has that Texas Chainsaw doesn't is The Dushku. That's right, Eliza Dushku, better known as Faith from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Once…
Supposedly based on a true story (not going to fact check), the horrific tale follows a group of young folk on a road trip in Texas back country. They manage to find hell in the form of a cannibalistic family that's looking for a tasty meal. It has a gritty realism and a timeless feel even though it was made in the mid-70s. The tone…
Will the Tall Man ever stay dead? Part 3 in the Phantasm series starts immediately after the second movie. Reggie and Mike had just killed the Tall Man and torched his house. As they escaped in the hearse, Reggie's girlfriend turned out to be evil. Not long after, Mike gets kidnapped by the Tall Man and Reggie must find him back. Somehow. Along the…
This time of year we expect to see some pretty big moves. 4 or 5 spots is not uncommon. The Steelers and Broncos really screwed the pooch this week with their losses to the Dolphins and Chargers respectively. A drop of 8/10 positions brings up some serious concerns. Vikings (5-0) Same Patriots (5-1) Up 4 Cowboys (5-1) Up 5 Texans (4-2) Up 5 Falcons…
Two years after little Andy Barclay and his mom were terrorized by the possessed Chucky doll, Andy is living with foster parents, because his mom is locked up in a psychiatric facility. The charred remains of Chucky are reconditioned by the Good Guy doll company to verify that the doll wasn't defective. It doesn't take long before Chucky is back to killing on his…
The series had grown stale and it was time to lay it to rest with one last outing. Here we go again with the "it's over" treatment. The last remaining teenager from Springwood is used by Freddy as bait to lure more children into his jurisdiction. Apparently, he can't kill kids in their dreams outside of Springwood. Those pesky supernatural rules. I had no…
It's hard to take any of these movies seriously with "final" in the title. You're going to make more. Don't even try to act like you're done. This Friday the 13th sequel is a bit of a departure from the previous movies. After an elaborate FBI trap, Jason Voorhees' body is blown to pieces. That's at the beginning. The rest of the movie is…
A hippie school teacher accidentally invents a blood powered car while working on a wheat grass powered car, and must maintain his fuel supply with a little bit of killing. It starts innocently with squirrels and rabbits (here we ago again with the killing animals). Then it escalates to people. Boy, does it escalate quickly. He runs out of "gas" regularly and must dump…
There are far too many peeing scenes in this movie. Also, WTF did I just watch? This German horror porn is about as extreme as I'm willing to go, and I wasn't that willing. I think the sexual attraction to dead things isn't even that disgusting. What got me was the dead animals. The killing of a rabbit seemed pretty real and it's not something I…
