Movie Review – The Terminator
The Terminator is one of the truly perfect films in the science fiction genre. Sure, there are temporal paradox/causality loop issues, but you have to handwave that and go along with the premise. And why not? If you’re going to tell a time travel story about what happens when the singularity occurs — and it…

Movie Review – Happy Death Day – Very Fun, Almost Cute Horror Film
I was really surprised with this movie. I thought it was going to be totally predictable and played out. They surprised me; it was really good. I loved how the same day would start over and over again. You’d think that it would get boring, but the way they kept switching things up kept you…

Movie Review – It (Chapter 1)
Normally RunPee Sis sees the horror films like this, but since she lives in Orlando she’s in hurricane prep mode right now — her own horror movie. So I’ve been pressed into duty. Both the critics (90%) and users (92%) at RottenTomatoes.com gave this movie high marks. Personally, I was a little bored by the…

Movie Review – Life
—
I don’t even know how to rate this one. For the record, I absolutely hated it. I’m even the target audience, according to the trailers, as I LOVE science fiction and space movies. However, you should all know this is a straight body horror film, with gristly, gruesome, and horrific scenes occurring frequently once the…

Movie Review – Mortal Instruments
—
If you loved the book, Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones, then you’ll love the movie. I base this on the fact that there was a smattering of applause at the end of the movie coming from a group of people who all sat together. They were the die-hard fans of the book, I was told.…

Movie Review – The Conjuring
The Conjuring was by far the best scary movie I have seen since I was a little girl. At one point I was wishing for my blanket to cover my head and hide my eyes with. I do not have one bad thing to say abut this movie. It was great. The entire cast gave…

Movie Review – The Lords of Salem
—
The Lords of Salem, written and directed by Rob Zombie, definitely made it to my top 5 list along with Devils Rejects. However, this movie, with Zombie’s morbidly delicious way of thinking, is not going to be for the general public. It was visually assaulting. Rob Zombie imagined the witches as Manson-esque hippies, and very…

Movie review : Texas Chainsaw 3D
—
I was pleasantly surprised with the latest attempt at the Texas Chainsaw phenomenon. Being ruled by the darker side of my personality I find it almost impossible to pass up these movies. I wasn’t expecting much out of this one but I most definitely walked away pleased. Don’t get me wrong..it wasn’t terrific. There were…

Movie review: Paranormal Activity 4
—
I want to start off by saying the last thirty minutes of the movie is what made it watchable. I enjoyed those few minutes. My legs were in a constant state of chill bumps and I have to admit my hands flew up to my face of their own accord a few times. That being…

Movie review : The Crazies
—
I’ve watched The Crazies a number of times now and it still holds up as an excellent example of a good zombie movie. The pacing starts off slow and builds exponentially. Many zombie movies ramp of the action and scares too quickly, creating an up and down feeling to the pace. Not in this movie. It…
