  • The Scariest Movie Of all time?

    I have recently been hearing alot of hype behind one particular movie, “Paranormal Activity”. This movie has been dubbed by Bloodydigusting.com as “the scariest movie of all time”. That is a bold statement coming from one of the best horror/sci-fi websites around! Many more as well are praising this movie and I, being a big fan of…

  • More Lame Movie Ventriloquist Dolls & Puppets!

    Yeah there’s more than one devil doll out there! Before “Black Devil Doll From Hell” there was simply “Devil Doll” from1964. This movie is a stinker as well! I’m not sure why they can’t seem to ever get the creepy ventriloquist dolls in movies to actually be creepy! They are by themselves probably some of the…

  • It’s Saturday Night-time for a good monster movie!

    Sometimes I wish I was back in the 80’s when life seemed a little simpler and the horror movies were still fun! There’s just something special about a good 80’s monster movie. There sure are plenty of them too but there’s alot that fall between the cracks and remain forgotten by most. The Unnamable from 1988 is…

  • Finally a recent Fantasy movie that didn’t suck!

    Just the other evening I took a gamble on renting a new movie called “Wolf Hound”. On the cover it said “Conan the Barbarian meets Lord of The Rings” and with nothing else that looked vaguely interesting I decided to reluctantly beleive what the cover was telling me. Now I’ve taken many chances on recent fantasy movies and been let…

  • Dancing Demons and Death Metal, A Match Made in Hell!

    Nothing tops the sweet sounds of a good heart jolting death metal tune, and it is hard to beat awesome b-horror movie action. So why not combine the two into what should be the ultimate culmination of sight and sound. I guess that is my ideal experience. Not sure if there are any dorks out…

  • You can look to the Galaxy, or Within, for some Terror!

    Fellow Universal Dork Pete Saturday posted an awesome review and reminder of the classic Creepozoids and I responded with a note about two other plot/theme related classics, The Terror Within and Galaxy of Terror. After some serious thought and internal reflection on my actions…I realize that it is pretty lame to just hang the carrot…

  • Pandorum: A Creature Flick I can get behind!

    I am pretty pumped about the upcoming sci-fi horror movie entitled “Pandorum” out Sept. 25th. I love a good sci-fi movie but what I love more is a cool ass monster! So far from this newly released clip of the monster in that movie it looks pretty promising. Not being a fan of CG monsters (sorry…

  • Silver and Swamp Thing in 3D, Just Rumors?

    This dork recently learned that Joel Silver is considering a remake of Swamp Thing…yeah, in 3D. At first I threw up my arms and yelled “No! Not Joel Silver!” But then I sat back and reviewed his list of contributions over the years. After my meditation time with the list I realize there were a…

  • CG Animated Horror Movies-A good idea?

    I just ran across this trailer for a possibly upcoming movie called “Blood Trail”. It’s a CG animated trailer for the proposed horror film and so far I can’t decide whether or not this totally cool or really lame. I guess it reminds me a bit of the most recent “Beowolf” animated movie. I watched that as well…

  • They Reached The Final Destination…and the Outlook is Good

    Just a warning for readers, if you expect content, character development, good dialog, and interesting plot…then wow, you came to the wrong movie. The Final Destination has none of these aspects. But if you are coming for unbelievable aligning of events that result in violent unpredictable deaths, great gore, and a guaranteed hunks of body…
