Of the other Lampoon’s Vacation movies, this one is …

From 1995, The Net is a suspenseful, very well made drama. It’s identity theft to the nth degree, and it’s scary. Sandra Bullock plays Angela Bennett. She’s somewhat of a recluse, and she’s a computer nerd/geek. She’s a master programmer and hacker, and she knows …

I absolutely hate the new “Halloween,” this crude, obscene, bloody, gory, stupid, disgusting slasher. I have not seen the original version made sometime in the 70s, but from what I hear, it did not have all the sliced up bodies on screen; this one does, and seems to relish …

When I was a kid growing up in the 80s, one of the people I would sneak out of bed late at night to watch was Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (Cassandra Edwards). The so-called ‘horror’ films she showed were usually terrible. But, she made things entertaining.
