    Interview With the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Vampires, am I right?  I have never understood the fascination with these mythical creatures.  Such is the love for those of the pointy teeth that there are some who… Read more “Interview With the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    The Shining, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Not all of Stanley Kubrick’s films are as bad as A Clockwork Orange (1971), or as taboo as Lolita (1962).  The majority of them are, though, twisted.  Even in movies as seemingly innocuous… Read more “The Shining, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Morbius, by Albert W. Vogt III

    How many more movies are left that we got previews for before COVID shut down movie theaters?  The only other one I can think of is Top Gun: Maverick.  I… Read more “Morbius, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Happy Death Day 2U, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Shame on me for assuming that, like most sequels, Happy Death Day 2U (2019) was going to be bad.  What is even more remarkable is that it is just as… Read more “Happy Death Day 2U, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Happy Death Day, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Usually, fewer genres of films get me uninterested faster than slasher films.  I do not understand their popularity, and my problems have been documented in my reviews of… Read more “Happy Death Day, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Ghostbusters II, by Albert W. Vogt III

    There are few more iconic films than Ghostbusters (1984).  Still, I wonder if it would have been as much of a smash-hit if John Belushi had still been alive to… Read more “Ghostbusters II, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Jaws, by Albert W. Vogt III

    When you hear the famous “duuuun dun, duuuun dun, dun dun dun dun dun dun. . . .” you immediately know to what movie it is referring.  It… Read more “Jaws, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Nightbooks, by Albert W. Vogt III

    With some out-of-town friends staying at the house of the old man I live with, I decided halt the onslaught of Karate Kid movies in favor of… Read more “Nightbooks, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Zombieland, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Shaun of the Dead, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Before there was The Walking Dead (2010-present), or even a Zombieland (2009), there was Shaun of the Dead (2004).  It premiered in an era when zombie films and television shows still took the notion… Read more “Shaun of the Dead, by Albert W. Vogt III”
