    Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, by Albert W. Vogt III

    If memory serves correctly, when I saw the first AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004), I do not recall hating it.  To be sure, it is not good.  Yet, the most you… Read more “Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    AVP: Alien vs. Predator, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Ever since Predator 2 (1990), the devoted fan base to the Predator and Alien franchises have wanted a crossover film where these two races of space monsters battle it out with each other.  Why?  Because… Read more “AVP: Alien vs. Predator, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Hocus Pocus 2, by Albert W. Vogt III

    This time of year is not my favorite.  My apologies to anyone who enjoy the approach of Halloween, but I stopped liking that event when I got too… Read more “Hocus Pocus 2, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Bram Stoker’s Dracula, by Albert W. Vogt III

    If there is one movie that I feel best encapsulates my distaste for certain films as a practicing Catholic, it is Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992).  Though tales of vampires predate… Read more “Bram Stoker’s Dracula, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    28 Days Later, by Albert W. Vogt III

    My distaste for the majority of horror films is well documented.  In short, they are among the most formulaic of movie genres.  In other words, predictable.  On the other hand,… Read more “28 Days Later, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Beast, by Albert W. Vogt III

    My Catholic sensibilities had a bit of trepidation reviewing a movie titled Beast.  After all, that is one of the names given to the devil.  If you knew nothing else… Read more “Beast, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Warm Bodies, by Albert W. Vogt III

    With Shaun of the Dead (2004), you have a great movie that spoofs the zombie sub-genre of horror.  It is that good because not only does it send up many… Read more “Warm Bodies, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Psycho, by Albert W. Vogt III

    I wonder how many people when they think of the movie Psycho (1960) bring to mind the 1998 remake starring Vince Vaughn and Anne Heche?  I hope not.  It is the… Read more “Psycho, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    The Black Phone, by Cameron J. Czaja

    When God closes a door, he opens a window. That was the case for director Scott Derrickson, who is someone I mentioned in previous reviews. For those… Read more “The Black Phone, by Cameron J. Czaja”

    From Hell, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Sometimes you remember a movie one way, watch it again, and find that it does not quite fit the image in your brain.  I have probably said this… Read more “From Hell, by Albert W. Vogt III”
