Then there is a girl named Mary (Justine Waddell) who has some psychic…

The Faculty (1998)

I was completely obsessed with this movie when it first came out. The director of From Dusk Till Dawn teams up with the writer of Scream and an all star cast. What more could you want? It's teen horror funsies of the late 90s. What I really enjoyed about the movie originally was the mystery, the pacing, witty dialogue, and the bad assitudes of the main…

Cult of Chucky (2017)

You'll never be able to keep this doll down. This time, they pull out all the stops and deliver a crazy 1.5 hour ride. While it's not anything ground-breaking, I have to give it props for bringing a lot of the previous movie elements together in one and adding some new fresh stuff, too. The main character from the last Chucky movie, Nica, is…

AFC East: Patriots (3-2) The Bills have been looking pretty good too but its far to early to root against the Patriots. North: Ravens (3-2) Its not often that the AFC North is the worst division in the league but they are. Honestly, the…

Pet Sematary Two (1992)

When Stephen King doesn't want to be associated with a sequel to a film based on one of his novels, you've done something wrong. The concept of the pet cemetery/Indian burial ground raising people from the dead is back, and that's about all that's returning from the first movie. This time, a teen named Jeff (Edward Furlong) loses his mother in an electrical accident.…

Killer Workout (1987)

You know it is going to be good when the first five minutes include death by tanning bed. The movie was originally titled Aerobicide, which is as good, if not better, than Killer Workout. Once the first body is discovered, an inept detective investigates the Rhonda's Work-Out health club. The bodies continue to pile up as the victims do absolutely nothing to fight back against the masked…
