Return of the Living Dead part II

Return of the Living Dead pt II Return of the Living Dead part II

I'm not usually a fan of movies.  To be more specific, I'm not usually a fan of zombie movies that try to be comedies.  Shawn of the Dead is one exception to that rule, and the original Return of the Living Dead is another.  What usually happens is that they try too hard to be funny, and either end up too hokey or don't do the element very well.  Shawn of the Dead and Return of the Living dead put the immediacy of the first, and add the comedy bits on top with the realistic character portrayals, and that's what make them good movies.  Thankfully, Return of the Living Dead II continues building on top of the foundation that the first film in the series started.

Trailer Tuesdays: Deadgirl

This week for Trailer Tuesday, we take a look at the 2008 film Deadgirl:

Since we recently were able to watch this film, I'm not going to give you the usual song and dance, but instead here's a short summary: Deadgirl tells the story of two friends who find the a girl in an abandoned mental institution that cannot die.  What follows is a morality tale on right and wrong, and how love and friendship can get in the way of that.

Look soon for one of our dueling reviews on Deadgirl.

Near Dark

Near Dark Near Dark

It seems lately that are all the rage.  Moonlight, Twilight, Trueblood, Vampire Diaries, Blood Ties, Underworld or Cirque Du Freak, and the list goes on and on.  It may surprise you to learn that were actually invented before 2006. In fact, we've found a case of a vampire movie as far back as the 1987.  I feel like a cinematic Indiana Jones here, making such an obscure theatrical discovery as a 20+ year old vampire movie, but hold onto your socks folks...  In some kind of Internal Bleeding first, we bring you Near Dark.

Trailer Tuesdays: Flight of the Living Dead

So it's October now, and you know what that means?  Month! So in the first Trailer Tuesday of month, we bring you the trailer for the unconventional movie "Flight of the Living Dead":

While we reviewed FLOTD (aka Plane Dead) back in April '08, it really doesn't get a lot of recognition.  While it's a blatant rip off of Snakes of a Plane, it does have some pretty decent moments of it's own.  Really, how can you go wrong with in the close confines of an aircraft?  I hope you're not claustrophobic, because it's like a giant flying aluminum coffin!
