Thankskilling is a rare film: it was made on a budget beneath even shoestring, maybe a floss budget. $3500. It’s meant to be bad, and funny, and it accomplishes both of those things. It’s short and to the point, without a lot of filler. Like a lot of horror films, the protagonists aren’t necessarily likeable. …
Lately, there has been an explosion of horror movies featuring a discrete theme: a group of masked assholes is killing random people (in this case, an unattractive, broke college student who is dating the X-Men’s Havok), usually to either film it or just to get their rocks off.

Well… this is a movie. I’m not going to sugar-coat this review: We have a new Champeen, a new Worst Movie. Seriously this one is hall of fame bad, mostly because it is so boring. Seriously, this movie was hard to watch. I give older movies a bit of a pass on their pacing, too. …

Our fourth Halloween (the holiday) movie is the fourth Halloween (the series) movie. Those unfamiliar with the series might not know that the third movie was a complete separation from the series — …
I seem to have somehow broke WordPress. Looking into the cause ate up the time I was going to write a post with, so… here we are.
Our second to last Halloween movie, Trick or Treats, is from 1982 and it feels like it. The pacing, mostly. Here we go: This isn’t a great movie but I’ve seen a lot worse since I started doing this. It doesn’t do much as a movie: there’s a lot of build up to nothing and …
