Slumber Party Massacre II (1987)

I will admit I had really low expectations going into this one. I may have seen the first Slumber Party Massacre and it may have been terrible. The crazy thing is that this sequel was actually pretty entertaining, even though it is total schlock. The story follows Courtney (Crystal Bernard), who was a survivor of the first massacre and is plagued with nightmares involving death and…

Brainscan (1994)

The first time I saw this movie I thought it was fairly unique. Unfortunately, it doesn't really hold up.

As the game progresses, he starts to question what is real and what…
