Wishmaster 4 – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 30

Wishmaster 4 has an unfortunate air of softcore porn about it. Which is only partially a result of the gratuitous sex and nudity. Rather it has the flat, disengaged feeling of something produced only as a vehicle to deliver sex. … Continue reading

Hellraiser 3: Hell on Earth – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 29

I must not have watched Star Trek Deep Space Nine before the first time I saw Hellraiser 3, because I had not realized that Terry Farrell (Jadzia Dax in DS9) played the main character. It was really nice seeing her … Continue reading

Leprechaun 6: Back 2 tha Hood – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 28

I really like the Leprechaun movies. They’re rather terrible, obviously, but in such a fun way that I find it almost impossible to resist their charm. So I was looking forward to seeing this one, the last one (not counting … Continue reading

World War Z – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 27

Perhaps it’s a result of severely lowered expectations, but I found World War Z to be decent, and as I’ve mentioned before I don’t particularly like zombie movies. The science in it is preposterous, of course, but if you manage … Continue reading

Resident Evil Extinction – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 26

Resident Evil Extinction is more Resident Evil, this time taking place in a post-apocalyptic setting (suitably enough considering the previous movie’s title). Your reaction to that will largely depend on how much you liked the two previous movies. I thought … Continue reading

X-Files: I Want To Believe – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 24

  I watched every single episode of the X-Files as they aired, but I haven’t seen this movie until now. I knew people had found it underwhelming when it came out, but that was it. Expectations suitably lowered, I found … Continue reading

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 23

Poultrygeist is the second Troma film I’ve watched, and I think I’m getting the hang of what they are. I.e. I appreciate what they do, but it’s not necessarily for me. This is a movie I would show to someone … Continue reading

Frankenstein’s Army – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 22

I started watching Frankenstein’s Army without any big expectations beyond being mildly entertained by a monster movie. Just the concept of Soviet soldiers pushing into Germany at the end of the second world war and encountering creatures created with the … Continue reading

The Conspiracy – Halloween Horror Month Movie Spectacular 2014 Day 21

The Conspiracy is a mockumentary (I will never like that word) about two documentary filmmakers making a documentary about conspiracy theories and themselves getting drawn in to the world of conspiracies. More thriller than horror I still found myself engaged … Continue reading
