Amityville 1992: It’s About Time Review (1992)

Posted on by Brandon

  My History With the Film: I first watched Amityville: It’s About Time in early 2021. I had just finished up Amityville Dollhouse and figured, I might as well check out another 90’s sequel. I wasn’t quite as impressed as I was with Dollhouse, but I also didn’t have any nostalgic connection to this film….

Amityville Dollhouse Review (1996)

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film: I caught Amityville Horror on one of the cable movie channels sometime in the mid-to-late 90’s. I was up late and saw the word Amityville and was impressed with what I saw. It was one of those creepy, low budget 90’s films that had just enough going on to keep…

Body Bags (1993) Review

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film: I remember seeing Body Bags VHS on occasion at the video store, but I was never compelled to rent it. Then it seemingly disappeared and I had forgotten all about it until two years ago, when I was researching some John Carpenter stuff. Body Bags was put on my list…

Wishmaster Review (1997)

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film:  Wishmaster came out right when I was probably at my horror peak as far as consumption of horror movies but for some reason I never saw it. It’s been on my “to watch” list for almost twenty years. Well, I’ve finally done it and consumed my first Wishmaster film. I…

Species Review (1995)

Posted on by Brandon

My History with the Film: I was twelve years old when Species came out and it quickly spread across the school that this was the movie for all young boys to see. It was full of gore, horror, and lots of nudity. In the one sleepover I ever attended, we rented Species along with Thunder…

The Crush Review (1993)

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film: The Crush was a popular movie in 1993, but it wasn’t exactly on my radar. It wasn’t until sometime after 1995 when Clueless was released that I felt a need to seek out The Crush. Of course, this was because at the time I had a massive crush on Alicia…

Jurassic Park Review (1993)

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film: I was nine years old when Jurassic Park was released and I had no idea it was coming out. My introduction to the movie was seeing the toys on the shelf at a Navy Exchange in Orlando, Florida. I had just relocated to Orlando between my third and fourth grades…

Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight Review (1995)

Posted on by Brandon

My History With the Film: Like most kids of the 90’s, I loved Tales from the Crypt. It was scary, funny, and featured the occasional nudity. The Cryptkeeper was even marketed towards us 90’s kids in the form of a cartoon and a gameshow that he hosted. I remember a big marketing push for Demon…
