I was once told that video games in the early 80’s and 90’s were much harder than games today. At the time of hearing this, I didn’t really know if that was true. I had grown up most of my life only casually playing games. The number of games I owned was much higher than…
Invasion of the Pod People (2007)
If anyone offers you a potted ginseng plant, don’t take it, or you will be killed by your own clone. And that’s a terrible way to die. It would also place you in this movie, which is a terrible way to live, so you really can’t win. Stay away from the plant…and this movie. Pod…
Hell Ride (2008)
Up until recently, I never understood the obsession with rearranging the timeline in a story. Starting a movie at the end and then starting from the beginning from the closing scene always confused and disoriented me. By the time I realized what was going on, I had missed critical information occurring in the middle of…
Crocodile (2000)
Car ride cliché…check. Okay, off to a start then. Many years ago, Tobe Hooper made a movie called Eaten Alive. Not to be confused with the cannibal movie of the same (translated) name. This movie starred Robert Englund seven year before he would become the famous Freddy Krueger. His role played him as a rather…
Breathing Room (2008)
Saw seems to have inspired some clones. In reality this follows the original entry in the fact that it’s a closed room, but then it goes into Cube territory. Everything goes back to Cube of course. Right off the bat, unknown forces state that there are rules, and only those who follow them will survive….
The Wild World of Batwoman (1966)
I tend to have more of an appreciation for classic films as opposed to more current things of my generation. I think back to the days of Alfred Hitchcock and while I may not have even been around to appreciate them, that hasn’t stopped me from longing for the days of cool actors and cool…
Shredder (2003)
Horray for more generic slashers. Let me guess, does it start with a random clip of someone being knocked off by a well-hidden killer. Yes it does! And is that followed by a scene of a bunch of twenty-somethings in a car ride. Wow, right again! It’s almost as if this formula was use in…
Devil’s Harvest (2003)
For the past three days (going on four) I’ve been without internet. Mind you, I’m really not complaining. It’s actually been kind of therapeutic not to have that “portal to the world” constantly open; though I’m sure a time will come, very soon, where I will hear something I’m interested in and want to fire…
The Brotherhood 2 (2001)
This was possible the gayest movie I’ve ever seen. Not that I’m in a habit of watching gay movies. I’m also not using that in a derogatory way, it really had boy-love undertones. Heck undertones would mean they attempted to hide it. And they didn’t. So I imagine most of this review will be a…
Hausu (1977)
Well this was a pleasant oddity. I had seen just a clip on the Lost and Found archives, then tracked down the movie. Thankfully the movie contained about the same level of weirdness and camera tomfoolery. At least the second half anyway. Many effects were used to create this movie, and being 1977, it was…
