Sleepaway Camp 163 reviews Felissa Rose, Jonathan Tiersten
Starz / Anchor Bay, 2000
Must see 80's slasher, 3.5 stars!
+ OH,OH-ANOTHER SLASHER ON THE LOOSE AT CAMP! + How had I not heard of this movie sooner?
Sleepaway Camp, sound like a bad attempt to rip off Friday the 13th? I personally doubt this ever would have been made had it not been for the Friday series paving the way, but this movie surprisingly rises above a lot of others that tried the same thing and is worthy of its reputation as one of ...

The Curse of Frankenstein 35 reviews Peter Cushing, Hazel Court
Warner Home Video, 2002
Five stars for horror fans
+ BLOOD,GUTS AND CLEAVAGE...YES, IT'S HAMMER TIME AGAIN! + Ground Breaking Horror Effort That Helped Put Hammer Studios On The Map
This is the 1957 Hammer Film which launched the super team of Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, albeit, since Lee plays the monster in this one we have to wait for a subsequent film to see his handsome face.
This flick turned the genre in a positive direction with superior sets, nice color ...

The Cabinet of Caligari 17 reviews Glynis Johns, Dan O'Herlihy
20th Century Fox, 2005
Thrilling and Suspenseful
+ Update of a classic feels more modern than 1962 + Great 60s film-noir art
This film described as a story in which "a young woman feels trapped in the mansion of a madman" appears with only a two star rating.
My feeling is that it's deserves many more, written by the author of Psycho and not nearly as recognized is perhaps why it's under rated.
Joan, an attractive , ...

Voodoo Island/The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake (Midnite Movies Double Feature) 7 reviews Boris Karloff, Beverly Tyler
MGM (Video & DVD), 2005
The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake
+ Wow! What a bargain! + Four Skulls gets Five stars
I always loved horror since I was 8 years old. I saw this movie on TV back in the 50's when it was released and growing up I never saw it again. So when it was out in DVD well you know the rest!
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to send my response.

House on Haunted Hill 123 reviews Vincent Price, Carolyn Craig
Warner Home Video, 1999
Greed And Ambition Are The True Horrors
+ Excellent + ALPHA dvd version!!!
I used to feel that "House of Wax" was Vincent Price's finest moment. After seeing "House on Haunted Hill" though, I feel that award must now go to this outstanding masterpiece of horror. Vincent Price (loaded with millions of dollars) invites 5 very different people (a typist, a doctor, a drunk, ...

Dementia 13 32 reviews William Campbell, Luana Anders
Good Times Video, 2005
Even great directors have to be born
A rather simple and short film by a young director. In black and white of course because it is cheaper, but also because it is very classic in that kind of psychological thriller. Hitchcock did it with Psycho, why not Coppola then? Basically it is the guilt that develops and is cultivated in a ...

Creature From the Black Lagoon 75 reviews Richard Carlson, Julie Adams
Universal Studios, 2007
THE DEFINITIVE "CREATURE FEATURE" MOVIE
+ Still fun in 2-D but Why Not 3-D? + MY FIRST MONSTER FILM.
'The Creature From The Black Lagoon' is an important film as it has been copied to death from the time it was released to this day! Besides having the coolest "guy in a rubber suit" monster you'll ever see, it rises above it's "B movie" origins and is still a thrilling experience. The Creature ...

Spooks Run Wild (1941) [Remastered Edition] 1 review Bela Lugosi, Leo Gorcey
A2ZCDS.com, 2005
Rare Lugosi Comedy
At a certain point in his career Bela Lugosi decided that he would take any film that came his way and Spooks Run Wild is a strong example of this.
What you get is a teen summer camp comedy that sticks Lugosi in as a strage ghost/monster/madman as a way to bring the rest of the comedie clips ...

The Forest 7 reviews Dean Russell, Don Jones
Code Red, 2006
Classic GrindHouse Flm
+ A slasher in the woods harum-scarum
The Forest is a classic Grid House from the 80's. Don Jones captures the atmosphere of the true independent film. Don't expect true horror as this screenplay is less than well written, but Jones delivers with beautiful shots and we get to see a very young Corky Pigeon (for those Silver Spoons ...

The Flying Serpent 9 reviews George Zucco, Ralph Lewis (II)
Image Entertainment, 1999
You can't spell "slaughter" without "laughter".
+ Bird-Brains...
This is really not a bad movie, it has several things going for it. It is short, like 58 minutes, which is a relief in this day of three and a half hour bore-a-thons. It has a good monster, the mindless killing machine Quetzalcoatl, who does nothing but kill, kill, kill and kill. And it has a ...
