Killer Eye: Halloween Haunt (2011)
January 4, 2012
 |
Studio: Full Moon Features
DVD Release: Release: October 18, 2011
That’s it… the whole movie… five girls, three sets of boobs, and they get blown up. You would figure that all the girls would drop their tops in this flick, but that is not so; I believe only three did. If you are in just for the eye candy; get your hand on the remote and work the forward and pause button.

Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest (1995)
October 29, 2011
 |
Studio: Echo Bridge Entertainment
DVD Release: May 10, 2011
Am I missing something? Am I not getting it? I don’t understand how there can be so many Children of the Corn films. I am dying to meet the sad sap who is a fan of these films. Is it because Stephen King’s name is attached or do they honestly find these films frightening and entertaining?

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995)
October 23, 2011
 |
Studio: Echo Bridge Entertainment
Blu Ray Release: May 10, 2011
The sixth entry in the Halloween series is the often forgotten Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers and also the final film to star Donald Pleasance as the crazed Dr. Sam Loomis. While Halloween 4 and 5 are more well known and has its fans, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is the series dark horse and often criticized as being a mess of a film. While I can’t completely deny that, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers should be given a second chance for those that didn’t care for it the first time.

Hannibal (2001)
October 20, 2011
 |
Studio: MGM
Review by Craig Sorensen
Hannibal is pure, bloated, big budget studio exploitation plain and simple. And taken on that level it can be kind of entertaining.

Beyond The Darkness (1979)
October 18, 2011
 |
Studio: Shriek Show
Review by Craig Sorensen
Frank is in love with Anna. He’s so in love with her in fact that when she dies he steals her corpse from the cemetery. Along the way Frank runs into a few other ladies and murders them, has to dispose of the bodies (in the most disgusting ways possible of course), gets a creepy handjob from Iris, eats some stew, and has to get married to his housekeeper.

The Howling Reborn (2011)
October 16, 2011
 |
Studio: Anchor Bay Films
Blu Ray Release: October 18, 2011
The Howling Reborn thinks it is a remake but is absolutely nothing like the original film at all. This is another in name only sequel just like the other entries only this time it borrows heavily from Twilight and even the awful Lost Boys sequels.

Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice (1993)
October 15, 2011
 |
Studio: Echo Bridge Entertainment/Miramax
DVD Release: April 12, 2011
Not sure why it took nine years for a sequel but studios thought that maybe fans of the first Children of the Corn wanted to revisit the 1984 hit. Watching the sequel, I got hit with some early 90′s nostalgia such as hair styles, brand new CGI effects for the time, and the fact that there really weren’t a whole lot of good horror films back in the 90′s.
