film “Ginger Snaps Back” (2004)

Halloween 2 movie
Rob Zombie returns with the follow up to his remake of the seminal slasher film. Last time, he made a terrible job of the remake and this time round he makes an even crappier job with its sequel. Well, that isn’t really fair. The awful flashback sequences from the …

Howard the Duck
This is a movie made by George Lucas. Truthfully, I didn’t know that George Lucas had made any other movies besides the Star Wars ones. The cover looked kind of strange, with this big duck on it and I was unsure what the movie was about. Anyway, I checked …
Movie: The Last House on the Left (1972)

Embrace of the Serpent (2015 Colombian Adventure-Drama Film)

The Host, movie
Whoever thought having the protagonist of a movie spend most of her time talking inside her own head for the better part of 2 hours and get away with it, was painstakingly wrong.

Just My Luck movie
I was given free tickets to a premier showing of “Just My Luck,” starring Lindsey Lohann, so a male friend of mine and I went to see it. Every teenage girl within a 30-mile radius seemed to be at this premier. Some of them even managed to drag …

Paris When It Sizzles: A film by Richard Quine (1964)

In Too Deep movie
I like Omar Epps in his reoccurring role on the show “House” but I’m not convinced he is a good Hollywood actor, capable of carrying a movie when asked.
A good example is the film In Too Deep. Epps stars in the movie and does a decent job as a …
Fever Pitch (1997 Version)
