The Skull Movie Starring Peter Cushing
When I heard about this movie, I was eager to watch it, being that I heard that it was about the haunted skull of the historical figure the “Marquis de Sade”, the same person who the word “sadism” was coined from.
It is also not to be confused with …
The Unborn (2009 horror film)
The Unborn is a horror film that I watched one evening after running across the title on the internet movie database. I was interested, even though the description of the film is brief and leaves much to the imagination.

Oliver! movie
One of my all-time favorite movie musicals is the wonderfully charming Oliver! I remember seeing it in the theaters when it came out in 1968, and I couldn’t get enough of it. I adored little Mark Lester, who plays the title role, and Jack Wild, who was …
Keeping Mum
I watched this film recently on DVD, mainly because it’s British and I love British film, but also because it stars Rowan Atkinson and Kristin Scott Thomas, both brilliant actors. Rowan Atkinson plays a vicar (again) and is very believable in the part, showing no Mr Bean style goofiness …
Sex and A Girl
I love this DVD movie called Sex and A Girl. I bought it for about $16.00. This story is about Alex, a 16 year old girl, who dreams of becoming a ballerina. She has ultra liberal hippy people as parents.
The story starts to get interesting when …
Movie 17 Again
I recently ordered 17 Again from Netflix. I had mixed feelings about it. It was mildly entertaining with some cute parts, and I am a big fan of Michelle Trachtenburg, who plays the main character Mike’s daughter. Otherwise, the movie was a little cheesy and unrealistic. …
Wanted
I thought one of the best films of 2008 was the action and adventure film “Wanted”. My brother was determined that he would see it in theatres and he did not stop talking about it for a whole two weeks afterward and encouraging me to see it. However, once …

The Pursuit of Happyness
I’m not really a big fan of Will Smith but I must admit he gives the performance of his career in this movie (even better than his portrayal of Ali). He was worthy of the Oscar nomination he received. I was in tears for most of the film. Directed …
“The ugly truth” movie
War of male-male amusing. Yes, you can briefly describe the new film makers cult comedy “Legally Blonde.” The ugly truth is another charming, banal story of love that every woman dreams of. On the other hand, this hilarious comedy is not as ephemeral as the others. It can not …
Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (comedy science fiction movie)
Honestly, I wasn’t very interested in seeing a “Hot Tub Time Machine” sequel almost as much as I wasn’t interested in seeing a Paul Blart Mall Cop sequel. However, a friend of mine claimed that he found it very entertaining and funny. I guess that would be the last time …
Kissin’ Cousins movie
I adore Elvis Presley and always have, but at the same time, I’ve felt sorry for him. That probably sounds crazy, but he was too loyal for his own good. It was his loyalty to the infamous Colonel Parker, his so-called manager, that resulted in Elvis starring …
Movie Gridiron Gang 2006

Jumper (movie)

Dorothy Mills movie
I am a big fan of horror movies, but not gore. Most movies with tons of gore seem to use it as a substitute for plot or character development. When I find a movie that is genuinely creepy without resorting to gore or cheap scares, I take notice.
Dorothy …

The 2008 film “Revolutionary Road” reunited the two main characters of “Titanic”, Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. I had thought that this film was going to be a rekindle of the flame that I saw in “Titanic” and something that would leave my heart melting. However, I had an …
Surf’s Up (2007) movie
One of the best animation movies of all time, and certainly the best from Sony Animation, Surf’s Up was funny, clever, and perfectly edited. The voices matched the characters brilliantly, and the characters themselves were a hilariously mixed and matched. Some of the dialog was truly inspired, …

The Clinic 2010 movie
As far as a horror movie goes this is every women’s nightmare. I didn’t find this film either jumpy neither scary but i found it utterly disturbing. The thought that some of those things can happen in real life, that places like this existed was disturbing enough without having …
Prom Night movie
In the first place, Prom Night is a not a funny and romantic comedy about a high-school prom night filled with friends and love. Yes, the movie is filled with friends, to be exact the character Donna’s friends, but this movie is all scary and a thriller! …
