Night of the Comet
In 1986, Halley's Comet fever was erupting all across America. People set up viewing parties to watch the comet come by for the first time in 75 years. In 1984, however, Night of the Comet was released into theaters, and maybe it was foreshadowing events that might happen when Halley's version passed us by.
Phantom of the Mall: Eric’s Revenge
The mall... That icon of consumerism and setting for many great horror movies: "Dawn of the Dead", "Chopping Mall", and "Night of the Comet" just to name a few. Let's throw Midwood, and "Phantom of the Mall: Eric's Revenge" in with that group. When Harv Posner, a greedy developer wants to build a mall in the city of Midwood, he starts buying up all the property he can get and moves out all the families. When when one last family won't move out and holds up the whole project, they send a little muscle in to get the job done, burning down the home and the family inside - except for Eric. Now he's back and he wants Harv to pay the piper.
Santa with Muscles
Hulk Hogan is an entertainment icon. He's an actor, a world champion wrestler, a star of his own reality TV show, a host for American Gladiators, a Pastamania spokesperson... and Santa? You read that right, Hulk Hogan has played Santa Claus, or at least a rich dude who thinks he's Santa. Since it's that cheery season for the old fatman with the rosy cheeks, we thought we'd sit down to watch IMDB's current #49 movie on the bottom 100 - Santa with Muscles, and we did it all for you, our readers.
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
If you read my post about The Fog you remember that I am not a fan of remakes. 99% of the time they just don't live up to the original. They are basically trying to cash in on a good movie by throwing in a few 20-something Hollywood turds. Well for me the remake of Dawn of the Dead from 2004 fits into the 1% that did it right. I love that movie... good acting, great action, and a very well written re-telling of the original movie. With that said I thought it would be a good time to re-watch and review the original written and directed by George A. Romero.
