Texas Chainsaw MassacreHorror movies have really changed over the years. Long ago horror movies were more about what you don't see. They gave you an idea of what is going on but you had to picture it for yourself. Even the slasher movies were not overly gory. In 1974 this probably was equivalent to Hostel,... Continue Reading →
FrozenI can't lie. I really enjoy Disney movies. It is one of the many things I have never grown out of, but now I have an excuse to watch them. I have kids. I'm also secure enough in my manhood to say that I really enjoyed Tangled. At the time I was a big fan... Continue Reading →

World War ZI was very reserved when it came to watching this movie. I love zombie movies, but I read this book and seem to be the only person who didn't like it. The book for me was a real snooze fest. The whole book was survivors telling their stories of the war. It needed... Continue Reading →

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)This movie seemed to start the big horror remake craze. Before this movie we hadn't had a remake of the big contemporary horror movie monsters like there are now. There have been plenty of continuations of Freddy, Jason, and Micheal Myers but no one had tackled redoing the movie that had started... Continue Reading →
Friday the 13th (2009)When this movie came out I was a little leery about another Friday the 13th movie. Sure the original ones were cheesy and ridiculous but that was the appeal. Later movies like Jason goes to Hell and Jason X were just bad movies. Needless to say I was afraid this was going... Continue Reading →
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)Welcome to Elm Street where the population continues to drop. I love this movie and the original because nothing is scarier than something that can get you in your dreams. When we sleep we can feel safe and relaxed, but what happens when your dreams turn against you? The concept... Continue Reading →
