Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) Movie Review
Killer Klowns from Outer Space is a cult classic that lives up to the hype. The movie blends alien invasion tropes with a carnival atmosphere. It all adds up to a nightmarish world where townspeople are killed in the most clown-worthy ways; cotton candy cocoons, popcorn guns, carnivorous shadow puppets, and even a clown kaiju all add … Continue reading Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) Movie Review
Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (1974) Movie Review
Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla is a camp classic. It never holds back in the bizarre elements it throws at you and proves itself to be the highlight of 1970s Godzilla pictures. This is a bold statement considering Jun Fukuda's reputation; he returns as director for his fifth and final Godzilla film. To be clear, Fukuda's efforts in … Continue reading Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (1974) Movie Review

Maximum Overdrive (1986) Movie Review
Maximum Overdrive is perfectly mediocre but with enough interesting parts to make it worthwhile. The movie is produced by questionably renowned producer Dino De Laurentiis (King Kong ‘76, Orca, Piranha II: The Spawning); it is also written and directed by Stephen King, based on an early short story of his called “Trucks”. Director: Stephen KingProducer: Dino De Laurentiis, Martha De Laurentiis, Milton … Continue reading Maximum Overdrive (1986) Movie Review

Frankenhooker (1990) Movie Review
Frankenhooker is not the worst Frankenstein adaptation out there (hello, Jesse James Meets Frankenstein’s Daughter) but it ranks low. This 1990 black comedy comes from exploitation maestro, Frank Henenlotter, the director of Basket Case. Like Basket Case, Frankenhooker is sleazy, crass, and gory; but unlike its predecessor, Frankenhooker lacks inspiration. Director: Frank Henenlotter Producer: Edgar IevinsWriters: Frank Henenlotter, Robert MartinCinematographer: Robert M. BaldwinEditor: Kevin TrentMusic: Joe RenzettiSelect Cast: James Lorinz, … Continue reading Frankenhooker (1990) Movie Review
Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) Movie Review
Godzilla vs. Kong is a mixed bag. On the positive side, the battles between the titular foes are impressive; the fight choreography is creative and leaves a lasting impression thanks to Wingard's directorial flair. Additionally, Kong as the emotional heart of the film works well; his Hollow Earth journey, along with his relationship with Jie … Continue reading Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) Movie Review
