The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006)

This is the follow up to the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Michael Bay is still involved.  Now, I need to clear up some confusion, this film is a prequel to the 2003 film.  Not only that, but as of right now, these 2 films are in their own plane of existence and share nothing […]

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)

Michael Bay wanted to make a reboot of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, and so he went to work.  People frown upon remakes, I am one of them, but this is truly an exception to the rule.  This was not the same story as the original, and for that I am grateful.  The original was […]

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1994)

Well, what do you have here?  One of Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellweger’s earlier films.  You like one of them at least, right?  This is the last TCM before the big reboot.  I will give a brief spoiler-filled synopsis, then give you my final thoughts and rating at the end.   SPOILERS Kim Henkel was […]

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III: Leatherface (1990)

After 4 long years, the franchise comes back, but without Tobe Hooper.  The director is most notable for a lot of terrible sequels.  I can say that this was his high point.  Anyway, we get a film starring Ken Foree who was in a lot of the Rob Zombie films as well as Dawn of […]

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

In a moment of full disclosure, I was busy catching up on blogs and didn’t pay as much attention to this as I’d have liked, but I have seen this at least 5 times, so we’re in a good place. There aren’t any big names involved in this unless you count Gunnar Hansen, who made […]

Prom Night (2008)

I found the original Prom Night from 1980 to be mediocre, but did help push some angles that other films have taken and made their own, so it had some historic significance.  Then along comes this film, which is and isn’t a reboot of the franchise.  I have no idea.  I think it sorta is. […]

Prom Night (1980)

Hey, a movie starring the “scream queen” Jamie Lee Curtis and Leslie Nielsen.  This can’t be bad, right?  Well, not so fast.  I am going to give you a quick spoiler-ific synopsis and then provide you with my final thoughts and rating.  Don’t expect much. SPOILERS We start off with some kids, like 11 or […]

It Comes At Night (2017)

Here’s another movie I don’t plan on spending an inordinate amount of time writing about.  There is not much substance here, and it is mostly hype as far as I’m concerned.  So I will give a brief spoiler ridden synopsis, then provide my final thoughts along with my rating. SPOILERS We have a family, Paul, […]

Gerald’s Game (2017)

I have had this book recommended to me numerous times because I’m a perv and would enjoy it is the gist I have gotten from people.  So with that knowledge, I then see this film come out and think, “Well, I’m a perv, I may enjoy this” and here I am.  It’s based on a […]
