I've seen some animal-based horror movies but this one takes the taco. Slugs? Really? They don't move fast enough. How could they possibly kill anyone? Who is going to be afraid of them? A health inspector in a small town uncovers the toxic waste-modified slug takeover. From the opening death, it takes a incredible amount of time before another death happens and it comes…

This is what they mean when they say "new classic." It's equal parts hilarious and horrific as four zombie apocalypse survivors must come to terms with their total shitfest reality. What makes it work so well is the high octane pace and the spunk-filled wit. The characters have their quirks with Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) obsessed with his rules for survival and Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson)…

Based on a Stephen King novel and directed by John Carpenter, Christine is about a classic car with a mind of its own and a taste for blood. The story follows a high school nerd, Arnie, and his jock friend Dennis. Arnie buys the piece of crap car for $250 and restores it. Arnie becomes cool and spends so much time with the car that…

This is a game changer right here. Danny Boyle knows how to rock the party. Animal rights activists unleash a terrible virus into the world after releasing some chimps from a testing facility. The virus turns the entire world into a rage zombie-infested wasteland. Damn hippies! Our hero Jim, played by Cillian Murphy, starts his journey in a deserted hospital with his wang out…

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…

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…
