The 1990’s were an interesting decade for horror films, the slasher genre saw a resurgence and those films became the more popular ones thanks to the likes of Scream (1996). A little seen genre during that decade was the haunted house film, they went under the radar for a little and were seen on shelves … Continue reading

There have been many screen adaptations of Mary Shelley’s 1818 book Frankenstein, perhaps best known is Frankenstein (1931) from Universal Studios starring Boris Karloff. There are likely too many versions to count, the story is popular and memorable. Francis Ford Coppola tackled another famous monster with Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1991), and he was set to … Continue reading

“We’ll always be together, together in electric dreams” we all know that classic 80’s tune from Philip Oakey and Giorgio Moroder, perhaps lesser known is the film Electric Dreams (1984) that the song was written for. The popularity of the song certainly overshadowed the film, perhaps some what unfortunate as Electric Dreams is quite an … Continue reading

The 1990’s was the golden era for historical epics and many of these films, whilst based on actual historical figures and events, were often romantic retellings of these events with the British Empire/Crown being the primary villains and the heroes being noble warriors who were often Scottish, Irish or Daniel Day-Lewis. Rob Roy is one … Continue reading

Starring: Anne-Louise Lambert, Helen Morse, Rachel Roberts and Jacki Weaver Dir.: Peter Weir Based on the story by the same name by authoress Joan Lindsay, Peter Weir’s adaptation of ‘Picnic At Hanging Rock’ is a vague yet eerily disquieting gem of Australian New Wave cinema. This film isn’t about shock value or excess it’s exceedingly … Continue reading

I love this time of year, and as someone who does celebrate the wonderful commercialism of Christmas, I always grab the Holiday/Christmas movies and watch them during December. So why not talk about some ‘Christmas Classics‘? Now I may have discovered SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT during a past 31 Days Of Horror, however since then … Continue reading

With POLTERGEIST III, this trilogy comes to a close, and with a pretty fun entry as well. I preferred part III over II, mainly because this felt more like its own film and not a carbon copy of the original. That is the issue with part II as much fun and entertaining as it is, … Continue reading

Marcey’s Live Blogging for Poltergeist II: The Otherside (1986) I know I have seen this film, but I actually remember pretty much nothing. I hope that isn’t a bad thing … This beginning is confusing me, does the family get cursed by the Native Americans? I mean their house was on top of a burial … Continue reading

Without question one of the scariest and most affective horror films to come out of the 80′s was Poltergeist. I have fond memories of discovering this along with my cousin for one of our weekly sleep overs, where we’d hire at least one horror film. That very first experience was a great time, the film … Continue reading

“Robocop (1987)” So, how about that “Robocop” remake trailer? Before I continue with my blathering, I just want to share my own two cents regarding the latest offering in the remake craze. It is so easy to bag this movie based solely on the trailer alone, I know because the first time I watched it, … Continue reading

“Clarissa (1991)” Dir. Richard Bierman I am a very vanilla person once you get to know me. I’m soft as a powder puff and twice as gentle (thanks for the line Miss Kitty). If I have money to spare, I give it to charities, if I see person overloaded with bags I’ll help them to … Continue reading

BEFORE SUNSET picks up 9 years after BEFORE SUNRISE, where we meet Jesse (Ethan Hawke) now in his early 30’s, at the end of a book tour. He’s in Paris, and his book is a fictional account of the night he spent with Celine (Julie Delpy). As Jesse is finishing off his talk, he looks … Continue reading

How many of us have had that chance encounter with a stranger, meeting someone new and finding that instant connection? Life has these moments, it is something that everyone experiences, in some shape or form. BEFORE SUNRISE is the exploration of that meeting with a stranger, in this case on a train, and the evening/night/morning/ … Continue reading
