Clownhouse (1989, R)
Still favorite movie of all time! The music is very well spooky as well as original. Loved that huge house where the kids lived. So many hiding spots for these mental patients to hide at. The acting is not bad, not exactly top-notch either, but its wonderfully played by the clowns. What I love about this movie the most is that our villain's do not speak, not a sound other a laugh in the beginning but a maniacal laugh. Other than that, completely quiet which makes them that more terrifying. This movie has been my favorite since I saw it the first time I saw it. Clowns what can I say they sure are scary..not knowing what they are, or what they are thinking but the settings, and the pace on how it makes you wait to see whats going to happen brings this movie to a high honor. Also, one of Sam Rockwell's first films he did, so its quite a joy to see on how he has become who he is from seeing him in his younger years. Nathan Forrest Winters did a amazing job as playing the terrified boy who has the major fear of courolophobia. Geoffrey the mild brother does not do a bad job either, for sticking up for Casey when his asshole brother Randy does not. Also, one other thing is the scene with Casey going to the fortune teller is spooky enough,someone warning you of death on your door is worst. However, this time they come to the house. Great movie for Halloween, or anytime your just in the mood for some fun and fright. Enjoy and turn out all the lights, get a snack and watch this amazing horror movie of suspense and terror. |

Alien (1979, R)
Now I have finally seen this space classic. Wow, what a great movie, not only is the movie called Alien for its monster, but for how the movie feels altogether. Something just isn't right, and you expect something to pop out at you when you don't even realize it. Also, when Dallas was in the shafts of the space shuttle. That was absolutely terrifying. The ending trying not to give spoliers. Was very well made, and altogether a loveable film which I consider now one of my favorite movies. |

Dead Silence (2007, R)
Loved it ! It was a great chilling ghost story. Had me in my seat waiting to see where Mary Shaw would strike back next. The unrated dvd is amazing- haha I love the big tongue thing that was new. Plus the story made more sense then the theatrical version. The beginning was flawless and I loved the music by Charlie Clouser same guy who did the Saw music for those movies. |

Bloodstone: Subspecies II (1993, R)
Finally flixster put this one on here. Now before you see this watch the first movie "Subspecies". Good, but not great but this one is more than great. This is when we finally get more of a story on our favorite vampire the legendary Radu. After having his bloodstone stolen from what he calls "his fledging". Michelle flees not knowing that changes are happening to her, and that she can never go back to her dear life that she once held. A awesome continuation to our fullmoon vampire. One of the best vampire movies I have ever seen. When Fullmoon was creative this is what came out- a cult classic. Own these dvds, ordered them off Amazon from Australia. If anyone was wondering where to get them look on Amazon. |

The Descent (2006, R)
Loved it so much! What I think what makes this movie so good, is that you actually get to know the characters care for them and just knowing something will be lurking for them in the depths below. At first it seems like it will be a drama of 6 girls in their lifes exploring the cave and just having a nice normal journey, but we know thats not in the case or it would have not been put in the horror section. Neil Marshall I salute you for bringing this new and ingenious horror to our eyes. |

Carrie (1976, R)
Sissy Spacek, Piper Laurie and my favorite William Katt were simply amazing in this 70's horror classic. P.J. Soles was really good as well and is very much memorable in the movie as Norma. Based off of Stephen King's horror book classic, Brain DePalma brings it to life with amazing results. The ultimate payback movie for teens, forget Heathers,Mean Girls, and a favorite of mine Jawbreaker...Carrie is the way to go. Just remember to do unto others as you will have done unto you. |

The Monster Squad (1987, PG-13)
The Monster Squad are back and this time Dracula has come to retrieve a amulet to destroy the word. Also, he brought some friends other monsters from the classic horror franchises. The Goonies meets Saturday the 14th. Not enough loops for this miraculous and unstopping ride full of laughs and scares. Monster Squad is sure to get you going. |

Scream (1996, R)
A orignial and classic idea from Wes Craven- We all love horror movies- or you would not even be reading this review- but if someone plays a game with someone that you love by answering horror trivia well that's a whole other story. Also includes the first 15 mins we think Drew will survive since shes such a major celebrity- boy we were wrong- SCREAMS (no ones safe) |

Satan's Little Helper (2004, R)
Pure genius - a horror movie that saves other horror movies that look cheesy but turn out to be a cult classic. Just one all fucked up ride. Twists and turns, loops and sideways. This movie is all over the place but thats what makes it a keeper a new original idea of a killer killing you on Halloween and putting you out on display for show. Amanda Plummer is simply fun to watch in this low-budget movie but the fun is all around in this one. ENJOY! |

Demonic Toys (Dangerous Toys) (1992, R)
Where do I begin with this lovely demonic movie? Haha, well this will definitely entertain you. Not necessarily your run on the market academy award movie but still quite entertaining and not a bad script. Not a movie for all which is fine, just makes me love it more. Loved all the toys especially the Jack-Attack, and the bad-mouth Baby Oopsie Daisy. Here, again another cult classic from the fullmoon vault with actress Tracey Scoggins! |

Creepshow (1982, R)
One hell of a rollercoaster ride as Stephen King takes you down another hill... with Creepshow. 5 grizzly tales to have you entertained for the next 2 hours. Dead fathers coming back alive,meteors,drowning alive,something in a crate and oh yes lets not forget about a bunch of swarming roaches. Definitely classic HORROR! It welcomes you to the creepfest. |

Sleepy Hollow (1999, R)
A Astounding film off of the George Washington Irving book. Johnny and Christina deliver it to us from the tale of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", but this time it has a whole new twist, and of course Tim Burton's touch and a new musical haunting score played by of course none other the god of composers, Danny Elfman. |

Jeepers Creepers (2001, R)
Could have been a outstanding horror from the first 15mins- however still loads of fun and full of scares. What fun it is to see the creeper on top of the police car behind them, creepy. I also thought Gina Philips did a fantastic job as the sister and Justin Long was not to bad. Excellent work for the Creeper he definitely will get you under you're skin. |

Suspiria (1977, R)
Wonderful film, just watched it last night. The scene where you think the girl makes it, and she falls into barbwire- was pure horror. The colors, are wonderful and makes you think you are watching a Disney horror. One of the scariest movies of all time! Plus, the music helps that to be true by being creepy and omnious non-stop. |

The Funhouse (Carnival of Terror) (1981, R)
Tobe Hooper does not let down in this classic. Which is why we told you not to spend the night at the fair and of course the funhouse!. Pure cheesy 80's movie. A few good scares, and I loved the monster. Very creepy,and slobbery,yuck. The acting was very well done and the special effects were very good for a low budget film. Also, I liked how it takes awhile for the fun to begin, lets you know this won't be your average horror film. The best thing of this film, is the music, its just very terrifying and alarming, with a nice classical edge. Watched it Halloween night, and is still a very well done classic. |

A haunting supernatural film of the dead trying to talk with the living. Kevin Bacon is so damn HOT in this movie but anyways.... the mystery of a dead girl trying to connect with the living in order to solve the mystery on how she was murdered. Have you're hairs standing up on the back of you're neck. Dare to watch it alone? |
