“The Collector” is a delivery device for gruesome kills ... The movie does not pretend to have a story so much as a premise that sets up the mayhem.

Even though it was released in 1991, “Popcorn” is a prime example of a fun ‘80s horror movie, the type Rhonda Shear would have hosted on “USA Up All Night” back in the ‘90s.

Like the portal the characters open with the titular ritual, “The Speak” exists somewhere between two worlds. It isn’t a mess, but it isn’t exactly worth seeing, either.

Every review I have read of the film rightly criticizes the same thing: the ending.  In actuality, it is difficult to criticize the ending.  Simply because there isn’t one.

No matter the person’s age, anyone seeing this movie for the first time in the 21st century will only be confused or amused, and anything other than satisfied or scared.

...Those who can forgive the erratic scene arrangement will find a unique thriller with tinges of those distinct 1970’s film feelings one normally only finds in exploitation or grindhouse cinema.

Smartly titling it “Creepshow” fooled a lot of us into seeing the film, but that does not mean we cannot save the rest of you from having to suffer the same way we did.

...While it may be a gauge for the “found footage” formula and relative success of the resulting film, it should not be the genre’s benchmark for quality in execution.

“The Amityville Haunting” is a premise hoping for a full movie to flesh out its bones by happenstance, without making a conscious effort to turn that goal into reality.

As a first act of exposition for (the inevitable sequel), “Texas Chainsaw 3D” is passable.  As a movie of its own, “Texas Chainsaw 3D” is a pass.
