Men, monsters, mutants, and music
It’s modern horror time! So which film from this eclectic trio was my favorite? Let’s take a look. BANG BANG BABY (2014) A sci-fi musical about 1960s rock ‘n’ roll and a chemical leak that turns people in a small … Continue reading
Evil goes to camp, monsters prowl the woods, and Keanu gets invaded
Maybe it says something about me that the only movie in this trio that even halfway did it for me was the one that slapped a grindhouse filter over the film… CAMP HELL (2010) Horror never gets tired of bashing … Continue reading
80s horror and a 90s straggler – one each from 1982, 1988, and 1996
Just a brief mish-mosh of 80s horror and 90s horror odds and ends from the VHS era. This time around: a Fulci film, an HP Lovecraft adaptation, and a “family” horror flick. MANHATTAN BABY (1982) It’s hard to comprehend that … Continue reading

Forgotten films: a campy 90s supernatural slasher comedy double feature
When it comes to the drastic shift to slasher comedies in the 1990s, we’ve all seen Dr. Giggles, Ice Cream Man, The Dentist films, Leprechaun movies, etc. But no one really talks about The Granny and Evil Ed, two films … Continue reading
Army of the Damned vs Devil Seed – demon double feature showdown!
It’s demon attack time, and I’m not talking about the classic Imagic game for Atari. However, I probably should have just spent my time battling those futuristic alien birds for the millionth time instead of watching Army of the Damned and Devil … Continue reading
Will kids ever stop going into the woods?
I originally intended this to be a double feature blog, but since I’m a completist with OCD, ADHD, and anal-retentive tendencies, I picked up the pointless remake of Cabin Fever for my collection, so I’ll toss in some quick thoughts … Continue reading

When demonic possession movies don’t go as expected
Well, this was a surprise double feature. Neither of these two films delivered what I was anticipating. Sure, I got my demonic possession fix when all was said and done, just not in the way I’d imagined. If I had … Continue reading
