THE ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES (1971)
"THE ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES is one of those films where you find yourself rooting for the villain through the whole thing. He's just so charming and confident and effective, while everyone around him is depicted as incompetent, ignorant, distracted, arrogant, petty...Phibes is doing what he sees is right, his divine mission of retribution for the wrongful demise of his beloved wife."

THE WOLFMAN (2010)
"While largely the film was, as billed, a remake of THE WOLF MAN, it's also more than that. In a way, it's a celebration of 75 years of werewolf cinema, from 1935's WEREWOLF OF LONDON on. I caught allusions to WEREWOLF OF LONDON, CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF, AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON, and THE HOWLING. Maybe some of them were in my head, I don't know."

SLIME CITY MASSACRE (2010)
"That was amazing. And what's doubly-amazing (and maybe a little sad) is how little work it takes to turn my hometown of Buffalo, NY, where SLIME CITY MASSACRE was filmed, into a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Hell of a thing, driving home from the screening and passing landmarks I just saw on screen."

THE INVISIBLE RAY (1936)
"Karloff and Lugosi are both in excellent form here, though Karloff (unsurprisingly) steals the show as the manic, glowing Janos Rukh. Hah, for a change, Karloff has the exotic/"weird" name and Lugosi's name is "normal!" The primary appeal of the film is, of course, the interplay between Karloff and Lugosi's characters, and neither disappoints -- not that either of them ever would."

CHILDREN OF THE CORN (1984)
"A fairly bland little horror film, noteworthy as a late entry in the trend of Neo-Pagan, rural-gothic horror such as THE WICKER MAN. And if you're looking to see some Neo-Pagan, rural-gothic horror, watch THE WICKER MAN instead of this tepid little movie."

MASTERS OF HORROR: DREAMS IN THE WITCH-HOUSE (2005)
"I think the story benefits from the Masters of Horror series having a run-time of an hour per episode. Lovecraft's stories are, by and large, pretty damn short. An hour-long episode means not having to pad the story out too much."

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
