I Am Legend (2007)

I used to really not be a huge fan of this film. I loved to make fun of Will Smith’s acting range, which was basically either Will Smith or Muhammed Ali, and that was it.  Here, he is still very much Will Smith, but he had some nice dimensions to his character. So the story […]

Rammbock (2010)

I found this film on a list of best zombie movies, and it sounded good.  I didn’t anticipate finding it anywhere, but as I scrolled through Screambox, there it was.  It was only 63 minutes, which was great for me.  So I gave it a shot. We learn that Michael is in Berlin to return […]

The Rezort (2015)

I found this one on NetFlix and it surprised me a bit. The plot is that people pay money to go to this resort where you can go kill zombies.  They have it set up so the zombies can’t attack you or get to you.  It’s all safe with tons of protocols.  As you can imagine, […]

The Girl with All the Gifts (2016)

This is a zombie drama.  It does have horror elements as well as drama.  The story is well done and even better performed. This is a bit of a slow burn at first.  We meet all of these kids that are in wheelchairs and they are tethered to the chairs and they are treated like […]

Survival of the Dead (2009)

The final Romero zombie film is a mixed bag to say the least. Do you remember the National Guard guys in Diary of the Dead?  Well, this is their story.  I actually wish they had connected more films in a similar fashion. We get some backstory on this island inhabited by the O’Flynn and Muldoon […]

Diary of the Dead (2007)

The fifth of the Romero zombie films and I would guess a polarizing film.  Yes, it is like a found footage style, but with actual good camerawork.  So the camerawork isn’t actually a problem when viewing, but I guarantee that it instantly turned away a large number of viewers. When some college kids see the […]

Land of the Dead (2005)

The fourth of the Romero zombie films, it came out 20 years after his previous one, Day of the Dead.  Land of the Dead feels different, looks very modern, and has a couple of big names in it like Dennis Hopper and John Leguizamo.  Also, Tom Savini makes an appearance, so that’s ALWAYS a plus […]

Day of the Dead (1985)

The follow up to the much beloved Romero classics.  It never gets as much love and adulation as Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead.  Hell, is it even the third best of Romero’s “of the Living Dead” franchise?  I’m going to say no, I’d probably rank it fourth.  But it is […]

Jeepers Creepers III (2017)

I remember being initially excited about this film.  I truly enjoyed the first film and hope that it would return more toward that.  Then the film was set to be released and then the protests.  The director, Victor Salva, has a past involving child molestation and child porn.  Because there is a sexual abuse story […]

Dave Made a Maze (2017)

I kept getting drawn to this film.  I didn’t understand how it would be horror.  In the end, it was definitely a blend of comedy, fantasy, and horror.  Don’t expect crazy blood and guts.  Expect red and pink yarn though. The film is about Dave making a cardboard maze in his living room and being […]
