A Daughter’s Nightmare directed by Vic Sarin is one of those thrilling TV movies that send waves of current down your spine. I couldn’t be more impressed after watching this brilliant crime thriller that is probably one of the best of its kind. After the death of Ariel’s father …
Wax Mask movie
An italian horror film that was included in a Dario Argento dvd box I got ahold of recently. The strange thing is that Argento did not direct this, so did another man named Sergio Stivaletti.

Far Pavilions

V for Vendetta (2005)
Director: James McTeigue. Featuring: Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving and John Hurt.

Alien 1979 Movie
I’m not a fan of horror films. I get scared far too easily. So, when I was a child, I liked scary movies even less. Movies likes Jaws, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elms Street were at the top of my list of movies that flipped me out. …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Phat Girlz
I’m not a big “Chick Flik” guy but when I read the description of Phat Girlz and how it’s about a woman who tries to create a clothing line for bigger women, I was a bit intrigued. Too bad the movie is nothing like it’s description.
The problem with Phat …

ABD Family’s Original Movie “Cyberbully” (2011 Film)
ABS Family came out with a movie in 2011 called Cyberbully. And I have to just say that this movie went beyond my expectations and brought viewers the type of movie that focuses on a key issue effecting young teens. I was surprised at how relatable the film was …
Hairspray (2007)
Popular Casts : John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christophe Walken, Amanda Bynes, James Marsden, Queen Latifah and Zac Efron.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000 film)

Coco Avant Chanel: A Film by Anne Fontaine (2009)

HOUSE OF WAX REMAKE movie
Umm. Yuck.
I was lucky enough to see the 1981 rerelease of Vincent Price’s original House of Wax in 3-D in theaters and it was a visual treat.

unerotic Paris Hilton deliver the …

Assault on Precinct 13, movie (1976)

Crazy Eights (R, 2007) movie

Signs movie
I know many people didn’t like “Signs”. I think that is because they came into the movie with the wrong expectations. As a science fiction movie “Signs” is average. The aliens don’t make very much sense; there is no explanation of their motivation. The special effects are simple to …
Amadeus Movie
I had missed the movie Amadeus when it first came out, so I’ve discovered it only recently, having rented a tape from our local library. It was surprisingly good. F. Murray Abraham is unforgettable as Salieri, the court composer struggling with jealousy and questioning God’s decision to give an …
