Halloween Ends (2022)

Does it end, though? Does it really? They keep making these movies and I don’t think they know what the word actually means. It never ends! I don’t know if it was because Halloween Kills was kind of awful or I was caught completely off guard, but this movie really amazed me. I am not going to say it was the best thing ever,…

Days 14 & 15 – The Drive-Thru

Sometimes things don't work out as planned. We left White's City, NM on June 29th with about a 3.5 hour drive ahead of us to reach Big Bend National Park in Texas. Dave became very concerned about the condition of the truck's tires and since we'd be in remote locations the next couple of days, he finally made the decision that we needed to…

Barbarian (2022)

Will someone please tell these people to stop going down dark passageways without proper lighting and backup? This is America and you should be packing heat when you go into the basement. I'm not going to go into details here, because the movie is best observed through an unspoiled lens. I will say that this is a masterfully crafted horror film with the perfect…

Watcher (2022)

Pure horror bliss. When a young couple moves to Romania for Francis’ job opportunity, Julia starts to lose it when she thinks a neighbor is watching and stalking her. Is she in danger or just paranoid? Francis is the idiot husband who works long hours and doesn’t believe Julia is a target. As the audience, we’re on Julia’s side, but it’s not always clear…

The Brood (1979)

It’s bonkers how this movie has passed me by all these years. David Cronenberg wrote and directed this nightmare of a film about a father, Frank, who is trying to protect his daughter from the mentally ill wife/mother, Nola. Everything seems pretty normal until the impish deformed children show up and it is revealed that they are the demon spawn manifestations of Nola’s anger.…

Amityville 4: The Evil Escapes (1989)

This fourth installment of the barely popular Amityville Horror franchise was a made-for-TV movie. It centers on a demonic possessed lamp originally from the Amityville house that causes haunting shenanigans for a family that just moved in with the Golden Girls. This probably should have been a comedy. For a made-for-TV movie, it’s not too bad. It’s not too good either. How hard is…

The Fly II (1989)

It’s damn near impossible to follow in the footsteps of Jeff Goldblum as his son, but Eric Stoltz did ok. He gives the right level of oddball stiffness to make it work. I mean, sure, you still want to punch his face (always), but he has the range to play a 5-year-old genetic abnormality genius as well as a nasty, falling apart fly monster.…

NFL Power Rankings – Week 8

Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. Lots of things happened this weekend, so let's do some random thoughts and observations rather than honing in on just a few teams. Philadelphia is the only remaining unbeaten team, and even those high on them before the season probably wouldn't have predicted that. I can guarantee nobody associated with 64tacos…

Ticks (1993)

You can’t ever go wrong when the cast includes Seth Green and Clint Howard. Add in some giant mutated tick creatures gooping around and sucking blood from anything that has a pulse. This is an awful early 90s “when animals attack” creature horror flick, but I still kind of enjoyed it for its absurdity. It doesn’t quite have the horror/comedy balance of Army of…
