This past weekend, I sat down and watched Cloverfield on DVD. I had forgotten that I had it on my DVD queue at Netflix and was a little surprised to see it in my mailbox. But, I figured since it was delivered I would watch it again. I didn’t mind it the first time so [...]

Over the weekend I got a chance to catch Journey To The Center Of The Earth, with Brendan Fraser, Josh Hutcherson, and Anita Briem on DVD. I wasn’t really expecting much because of the bad reviews I had seen of the movie. But, I really enjoyed the Mummy series of movies and was hoping that [...]

New to DVD Doubt is a mesmerizing, suspense-filled drama with four riveting performances from Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams and Viola Davis that will have you pinned to the edge of your [...]

Saw V is one of the those movies you either like or you don’t. Actually, the entire Saw series is one where you either like them or not. I would quite classify them as horror movies, but more like gory movies. There is blood. And a lot of it. There’s also broken limbs, entrails, brains, [...]

The Amityville Horror is one of those timeless horror classics that if you saw it when it was first released in 1979, you still remember the nightmares. I know I do. I thought I was all grown up at nine years old and ready for my first foray into the world of horror movies. I [...]
