The first time I saw this movie I thought it was fairly unique. Unfortunately, it doesn't really hold up. Edward Furlong (Terminator 2's John Conner) plays a reclusive high school kid who likes horror and video games. He decides to try a new game called Brainscan, dubbed the ultimate terror experience. As the game progresses, he starts to question what is real and what…

From the twisted mind of David Cronenberg comes this 1980s remake of the 1958 Vincent Price classic. Jeff Goldblum plays Seth Brundle, a scientist who has invented teleportation. Geena Davis is the journalist who meets him at a party and wants to write a story about Brundle's invention after seeing a demonstration. Things take a frightening turn when Brundle goes into his own teleporter,…

Oh, you gotta love the late 90s. You got superstar Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube, Owen Wilson, and Eric Stoltz as a documentary crew on a boat expedition down the Amazon River. They encounter Jon Voight as a Paraguayan snake hunter in need of rescue after his boat has trouble. It's not long before the crew is being hunted by a giant anaconda, or are…

From horror master, Tobe Hooper, comes an adaptation of the novel The Space Vampires. The story began with a space mission finding an alien space ship hidden near Hailey's Comet. The space ship had three humanoid life forms suspended in a sleep state, which the crew brings back to earth. Everyone aboard the space shuttle returns dead, and the humanoid aliens wake to suck the…

After a comet passes close to earth, all the people who were watching the event are gone (only little piles of dust remain) and the few survivors left must deal with the post apocalyptic aftermath. People who were exposed to the comet, but didn't turn to dust, became zombies. The main character is a high school senior named Regina who is somewhat of a…

This is one mess of a movie. One part horror, one part comedy, one part romance. That's an awkward combo even when it's not directed by horror master Wes Craven. Eddie Murphy plays Maximillian, a vampire who arrives in New York by boat and wants to find his soulmate, a half vampire police detective played by Angela Bassett. It's like Bram Stoker's Dracula meets…

In the summer of 1984, a teenage boy becomes obsessed with his theory that a neighbor is the local serial killer who kidnaps and murders boys. He convinces his friends to search for evidence to support his theory. There was a lot to like in this movie. It was mysterious. The characters are likable and there is a good dynamic among the four friends.…

Well, they made a sequel and it's a stinker. Basically, they amplified the sex and gore, while dumbing down the story even further. Luckily, not many people went to see it in the theater, so they only ended up making two more direct-to-video sequels. The movie starts with three astronauts on a mission to Mars. One of the soil samples they collected, contained some…

I vaguely remember seeing this movie in the theater when it came out. It's one of those horror movies that tries really hard to be exactly like every other horror movie, but it keeps moving fast enough to engage the viewer. The beginning shows an anthropologist guy in South America involved in some tribal ritual before heading back to Chicago with some cargo for…

This is definitely one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. It almost starts to venture back into the "so bad it's good territory". The basic premise is that a meteor crash lands on a farm and this alien goop seeps into the water, which then starts turning people into acne monsters with zombie-like tendencies. The only real "talent" involved is…
