Repulsion movie
Roman Polanskis masterful effort about a woman, played by the beautiful Catherine Deneuve, who step by step goes insane in here solitude.

Zombeavers, horror movie
With a movie title like this, you have a pretty good idea of what sort of movie you’re in for. This isn’t going to be a good movie in the traditional sense, although that doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t be an entertaining one.
Odd as it may sound, it …
