My birthday party at McDonalds was nothing like the impromptu dance sequences at the fast food joint in this movie. And Ronald McDonald never came to my parties. Why not, Mom? Damn it. I want a refund…or something. Maybe a free Happy Meal? ...

…in which Canada makes its very first wide-release horror movie. Wait. What?! It’s true. It wasn’t until the early 1960s that our polite friends up north decided to tingle their spines with the psychological art-house 3D terror of director Julian Roffman’s The Mask (AKA ...

Opening with the familiar notes of Glen Miller’s “In the Mood”, Zone Troopers is a fresh take on the clichéd WW2 war movie with its combination of American soldiers, Nazis, and aliens. Charles Brand (Puppet Master) strikes again, right? Seriously. Once you climb inside this supersonic ship ...

This is homegrown horror, my friends. As loopy as it is, The House of the Dead (originally released as Alien Zone) can’t be knocked for being inauthentic. This Amicus-like horror anthology – connected by one main storyline as one man, having an affair, gets dropped off ...

James Cameron's first movie as a director isn’t very good. Even by B-movie standards Piranha II: The Spawning leaves much to be desired. The film, being a sequel to Roger Corman and Joe Dante’s successful flick, should have been wilder, funnier, and a bit more on point in ...

Proving there is still some mojo left in the bottle for the Re-Animator series (or maybe it was just a desire to get the gang back together), director Brian Yuzna and star Jeffrey Combs as Dr. Herbert West return, some 13 years later, to the series that put schlock back on ...
