Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Monster Man (2003)

Let’s Ride #23! 2003’s Monster Man is a film that left me full of mixed feelings. The bulk of the film isn’t that great. It’s littered with bad, sophomoric jokes, most of which are delivered by Justin Urich as Harley, who comes off as a blend of every single stereotypical fun-loving jerk who the viewerContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Monster Man (2003)”

Halloween Bites! Netherbeast Incorporated

“He’s a vampire and I’m not.” Corporate America is full of bloodsucking, vile people willing to step on anybody that stands in their way on the road to success. Berm-Tech is full of bloodsuckers as well, but they are all pretty nice folks that get along quite well with one another……and they’re all vampires. inContinue reading “Halloween Bites! Netherbeast Incorporated”

Halloween Bites! Love Bites

“Good night, good morning…….whatever.” As I’ve been stumbling down a vampire rabbit hole looking for films to highlight in this year’s Thirty-One Days O’Horror, I’ve found quite a few gems. I’ve also found a few stinkers that won’t see the light of day. Then there are a few films that are just too unique toContinue reading “Halloween Bites! Love Bites”

Halloween Bites! My Best Friend Is A Vampire

“This blood’s for you.” Sometimes all you need is a lighthearted horror comedy to put you in a good mood. 1987’s My Best Friend Is A Vampire is the perfect film to do just that. Rated PG, it’s a fairly family-friendly comedy that has a little bit of action, a little bit of romance, andContinue reading “Halloween Bites! My Best Friend Is A Vampire”

Lisa Frankenstein (2024)

“I have The Cure…..” Written by Diablo Cody (Juno, Jennifer’s Body), helmed by director Zelda Williams (her feature-length debut) and featuring a cast loaded with talent, 2024’s Lisa Frankenstein has a lot going for it. Unfortunately, the writing and direction just don’t click for some reason, despite the best efforts of a very enjoyable cast.Continue reading “Lisa Frankenstein (2024)”

Truth Seekers (2020)

“How can I put a Smyle on your face?” With the one-two comedic punch of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost at the helm, 2020’s Truth Seekers combines supernatural horror, science fiction, and comedy in order to create a really enjoyable series. Written by Pegg, Frost, James Serafinowicz, and Nat Saunders, the series follows the adventuresContinue reading “Truth Seekers (2020)”

Focus On Christmas: Krampus (2015)

“We Know You Still Believe In The Big Fat Creeper.” The most recent film on my Focus On Christmas series this year is 2015’s Krampus. The film is a horror/dark comedy Christmas tale loosely based on the legend and folklore surrounding Krampus, a pre-Christian Germanic being that has become a part of Christian traditions inContinue reading “Focus On Christmas: Krampus (2015)”

Days O’Horror #28: Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy (1955)

“Some mummies are men. Some mummies are women” In the second to last film that they would make together, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello dig up some laughs in 1955’s Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy. The movie isn’t as funny as some of their other films, but it’s still a pretty serviceable comedy. TryingContinue reading “Days O’Horror #28: Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy (1955)”

Ooooh, That Smell!

Somewhere in the 1950’s Every once in awhile I watch a film knowing that it’s going to be bad.  Everything about the film, from the title to the plot description, screams “bad movie” but I watch it anyway.  Why?  Because sometimes you just have to watch a bad movie for the fun of it.  IContinue reading “Ooooh, That Smell!”
