Everybody hates a clown…

Posted on June 8, 2011 by Daniel

Clowns are about as kid-friendly as liver. Especially when the clown is slicing you open to remove your liver. When I think of clowns, I think of John Wayne Gacy, not Ronald McDonald (and even he was kinda creepy). If … Continue reading →

Good God this is a better-than–average bad zombie movie!

Posted on April 11, 2011 by Daniel

Posted on March 8, 2011 by Daniel

Most people who discuss what a brilliant movie Near Dark is compare it to The Lost Boys and are thrilled that it’s a mini-reunion of actors from Aliens. I’ve never been a huge fan of the Alien series, so the … Continue reading →

Posted on November 5, 2010 by Daniel

Since this perspective on the 1982 slasher Pieces is mine, naturally it doesn’t matter what the quality is of the film. It is a total treasure simply because it comes from the 80s—there’s even a fricking Ronald Reagan photo hanging … Continue reading →

Romero Zombie—the good, the bad, and the remade

Posted on September 24, 2010 by Daniel
