[31 Days Of Horror] Poltergeist (1982)

[31 Days Of Horror] Poltergeist (1982)

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

[Bea’s Reviews] RoboCop (1987)

[Bea’s Reviews] RoboCop (1987)

“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

[Bea’s Reviews] Clarissa (1991)

“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

[Review Rewind] Before Sunset (2004)

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

[Review Rewind] Before Sunrise (1995)

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

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula (1979)

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula (1979)

“Dracula (1979)” While like Glenn Beck, I don’t have any actual substantive evidence to prove this, in 1979, Frank Langella fathered many children and didn’t even know it because of his role in this movie. I’m not going to waste time by bitching about how inaccurate this film is, partly because it has the same … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)

[Bea’s Reviews] Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)

“Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)” While ostensibly a remake, Werner Herzog’s ‘Nosferatu The Vampyre’ is actually an art form masquerading as a horror. True, there is a sense of true dread permeating in every frame, but it’s not so much dread of a superficial movie sense, instead, it’s a dread that strikes close to home for … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)

[Bea’s Reviews] Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)

“Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)” You will either find “The Satanic Rites of Dracula” extremely awesome or extremely idiotic simply because of how… inventive it is. Rather of Dracula simply being content to hunt down quivering virgins (yeah, tough luck of that happening in the 70’s), the Count’s ambitions actually soar a lot higher than … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula AD (1972)

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula AD (1972)

“Dracula AD (1970)” OH THE PAIN, THE PAIN! The quote so famously bellowed by Doctor Smith from “Lost In Space” in the title should give enough indication that sitting through this movie without a braced mind is enough to give any self-respecting film lover a migraine. What could have been a novel concept was quickly … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Scars Of Dracula (1970)

[Bea’s Reviews] Scars Of Dracula (1970)

“Scars Of Dracula (1970)” The fifth but far from final excursion into Dracula’s world by Hammer- “Scars of Dracula” is the type of film which really tests a Dracula fan’s loyalty- will you go along with it, or will you despise it with every fibre of your being due to it’s outlandish take on the … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula: Prince Of Darkness (1966)

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula: Prince Of Darkness (1966)

“Dracula: Prince Of Darkness (1966) Dracula- Prince of Darkness” could have failed miserably. It shouldn’t have had the right to have been made, because at heart, Hammer Horror was more about getting the green than truly entertaining it’s fans. Yet, despite these technicalities, “DPOD” really is a worthy follow-up to the it’s predecessor. While ”Brides … Continue reading
