Big Alligator River horror movie

The Big Alligator River (AKA The Great Alligator) (1979)

Although this surprisingly dull (though not surprisingly corny) Italian contribution to the post-Jaws giant animal movies takes place in Southeast Asia, a good portion of the "natives" look like...
The Believers horror movie poster

The Believers (1987)

Ah, the '80s. How could anyone forget the wacky trends of the era: Izod shirts, Rubiks Cubes, ALF and, of course, voodoo. How fondly I recall Saturday nights with...
The Beast Must Die horror movie poster

The Beast Must Die! (1974)

This is a fun little film that combines a monster movie with an Agatha Christie-style whodunit. The monster in question is a werewolf, and the whodunit in question is...
Bats horror movie

Bats (1999)

Ax Em horror movie poster

Ax ‘Em (1993)

Some movies have to be seen to be believed, and while I wouldn't ordinarily recommend a film as bad as Ax 'Em, someone else must feel my pain. In...
Alien vs. Predator movie poster

Alien vs. Predator (2004)

Like Freddy vs. Jason, Alien vs. Predator cashed in on two diminished franchises that, as individual sequels, would probably tank. (Personally, I'd like to pitch Ghoulies vs. Air Bud.) Unlike FVJ,...
Automaton Transfusion horror movie

Automaton Transfusion (2008)

Automaton Transfusion is decent in a "seemingly written and directed during a drunken weekend bender" sort of way, but otherwise it brings little new to the zombie table. It's written...
