Evil Never Dies

Advantages: Suitably chilling | Quite scary
Disadvantages: Plot annoyances | Gore

...nearly being burnt alive in Halloween II. While he has been lying there a few things have happened in the world. His sister, Laurie, is now dead after being killed in a car crash. However before she died she gave birth her daughter Jamie (Danielle Harris) who now has nightmares about her not-so nice Uncle coming after her. A family fostered her and her foster sister Rachel (Ellie Cornell) does her best to take care of her. However, on Halloween, ...
...At first glance, then, Halloween 4 appears to have little to warrant it being classed as special or even close to being so. The motive behind this film was purely money, promptly shown when Akkad (the executive producer of all the Halloween films) decided to carry on with a sequel despite the creators Carpenter and Hill not being involved. If a film is driven with the focus of money it can lose the focus of making a good film. However, that said, ...

Moustapha Akkad Finally Kills Michael

Advantages: When I find any I'll let you know.
Disadvantages: What ISN'T wrong with this film?

...hermit for a year. Once Halloween begins he murders the hermit and makes his way back to Haddonfield. There we see Jamie (Danielle Harris) who can no longer speak and has developed a telepathic link with her uncle. Dr. Sam Loomis (the late, great Donald Pleasance) also returns and discovers Jamie's link to Uncle Mike. He tries to use this to his advantage to figure out when and who he's going to kill when Jamie goes into panic attacks. These attacks ...
...original idea. But in a "Halloween" film? Save it for a "Friday The 13th" sequel. This movie is bad. I don't mean bad as in "Jason Goes To Hell" purposely bad but I mean bad as in "there goes an hour and a half of my life" bad. This whole telepathic crap might be more original for this series but it doesn't work in the least. We go from one of the simplest Horror films of all time to something more complicated than building your own PC. This film ...

You can't kill me now. I'm a vampire!

Advantages: Great use of suspense. Fairly good soundtrack.
Disadvantages: Low budget. Poorly written.

Vampire Clan Review Based on the real butchering of two middle class American parents, this film is a horror flick with a difference. This film is all about the real happenings in main land America, when two affluent older people were killed in what appeared to be a ritualistic slaughter. You can only imagine the cold hearted S.O.B who decided to try and sucker some money out of this event, by making a movie about. This film was released as a made ...

Heather: What's that suppose to mean? Charity: Look, to put it bluntly Heather... you're parents are dead.” Cast overview, first billed only: Drew Fuller ....

Mutant

Advantages: Entertaining
Disadvantages: None really

Mutant is released under the "Hollywood" Dvd collection. These DVD's were most popular when DVDs were first starting to take over videos but were still priced considerably higher. These cheaper DVDs were around half the price but it does show in the movies. With action movies, such a low budget release would be forgotten but low budget horror movies have a much better quality and are far more entertaining. Mutant was released in a 3 DVD Hollywood ...
...a 1983 film beacause i thought it was a 90's film by the general look. To conclude, it's very enjoyable and i would reccomend it to any fan of horror movies. It is a good hour and a half of cool toxic mutant footage. Thanks for reading Joe 2008 ...

"Excuse me is that your spleen?"

Advantages: Few
Disadvantages: The fact that its edited beyond expectations.

Antropophagus - The Beast What am I on about you ask? Well the movie The Grim Reaper is actually a trimmed down version of Antropophagus - The Beast. If you have never heard of Antropophagus, its not that you have led a sheltered life; because this movie is the stuff of legends. In the UK Antropophagus never got much opportunity to be hated, it was quickly ripped from our video shelves before we had chance to bad an eye lid. But it came as quite ...
...2002 The Grim Reaper sneaked out without the slightest whiff of controversy. Not only had the film been savagely cut to an extent it was almost unrecognisable. It had a different title from its previous release, and came out on the budget HOLLYWOOD label. The story is simple, a group of youngsters the principle player of which is Julie (Tisa Farrow the sister of Mia Farrow), arrive on a small Greek island. At first it appears they have found heaven, ...
