Retro Reviews

I was extremely bored one night several months ago and was looking for something to watch on Tubi and ran across Cooties. I had never seen it or heard much about it so I decided to give it a shot and thought that it might be a fun little brainless …

Growing up in the ’80s and ’90s was the best time to be a kid in my opinion. We had our share of cartoons, TGIF, video games, arcades, toys, malls, and movies. It was a simple time for a lot of us, a fond memory of things we didn’t think …

When I was twelve, I was a huge Transformers mark, so I was beyond excited when I heard that they were making a movie. The day before school started my mom took me to a matinee to see it and I was just full of nervous energy and completely stoked …

I distinctly remember the moments when I watched this film. It was my Mom and my bonding moment. Though Sometimes They Come Back, the book is a lot more detailed. Sometimes They Come Back aced the Stephen King-adapted films. I didn’t really know any of the sequels. I tended not …

I always enjoy a comedy horror, aside from the Scary Movie franchise. However, one movie that started to show me that zombies can be funny, like really funny. Return of the Living Dead II became one of my safety resources when life gets a little complicated. I believe everyone should …
