I would like to say that this movie lived up to the hype surrounding it, but the truth is; The Haunting in Connecticut was mediocre at best.
As the hype machine was set into motion when this movie was getting ready to hit the theaters, I just knew that this movie was going to be [...]

A remake of the of the 1973 movie The Crazies is getting ready to be released on Feb. 26, 2010. I have to admit that I did not see the original, but after seeing the trailer for the new version, I will be going back through the archives to give it a view.
The Crazies [...]

Now that was fun!
I just watched Zombieland at my local theater the other day and have to say that I haven’t enjoyed a movie this much in a while. The combination of Woody Harrelson, zombies, and a lot of running and screaming has just too much going for it that it is hard [...]

There are incredible horror movies that scare the crap out of you and then there are those that will bore you. In the middle of that spectrum are the ones that can cause seconds of jumpiness, while still dragging along. Drag Me To Hell is one of those movies. What made it worse is [...]

There are movies that I can’t wait to see and this is one of them. Zombieland looks like a fun time at the movies and stars one of the best “love them or hate them” actors in Woody Harrelson.

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 [...]

I’m thinking this is going to be a little bit creepy. But, I could be wrong. I thought Cabin Fever was going to be a good movie too.
Dark Woods is about a couple who moves to a secluded cabin out in the woods (which never turns out good) to cope with the wife’s terminal illness. [...]

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 was [...]

I recently got a chance to watch the remake of Friday the 13th and think I liked it.
Friday the 13th is, of course, one the all-time classics as far as the horror genre of movies is concerned. The story is timeless and the main character, the ultimate “boogeyman” Jason Voorhees, is synonymous with [...]
