The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Black Ferris (1990) – CARNIVAL HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Ray Bradbury obviously had a hard on for carnivals. In 1983, he wrote SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES and that movie was terrible despite the fact that a carnival is the ideal setting for a horror movie. Seven years after that flick, perhaps Bradbury wanted to […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Veldt (1989) – TV SHOW REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Ray Bradbury liked futuristic stuff, but I guess that makes sense. He was considered a sci-fi writer and a great deal of sci-fi stuff takes place in the future, but this was the 1980’s version of the future. I grew up in the 1980s and loved it […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: THE FRUIT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BOWL (1988) – EPISODE HORROR REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I get the sneaking suspicion that Ray Bradbury dealt with a lot of assholes in his rise to fame. After watching so many of his stories, there is a common theme. If the lead is a writer, which many of them are, they deal with somebody either […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: THE MAN UPSTAIRS (1989) – HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee What if you had a vampire living upstairs from you? What if that vampire did absolutely nothing wrong and was just on vacation? This tale really is about vampire hate and how it drove one troubled boy to commit murder. This Ray Bradbury Theater episode “THE MAN […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: THE COFFIN (1988) – TV EPISODE HORROR REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The 1980s was a big time for robots. There was a genuine fascination with them that led to many toy manufactures to create radio-controlled robots for the consumer. I remember wanting one, but my fat cousin got one instead. I never trusted him alone with that robot […]
Insidious Chapter 3 (2015) – Horror New Release – Movie Review – Still in Theaters
By Melissa Antoinette Garza The original Insidious is a modern classic. It was unique, scary and hit a chord with traditional horror fans. The sequel was a big disappointment with the only saving grace being Lin Shaye. I didn’t know what to expect as the previews for the third […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: GOTCHA (1988) – TV EPISODE HORROR REVIEW
By Geno McGahee In like a lamb and out like a lion. The episode “GOTCHA” of the Ray Bradbury Theater begins very mellow, but it begins to slowly turn up the suspense leading to a very creepy ending. John (Saul Rubinek) goes to a costume party dressed like Oliver Hardy […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Lake (1989) – HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Lakes can be creepy and that is the setting for the 1989 Ray Bradbury Theater episode titled “THE LAKE.” Everyone has known somebody that has drowned at a lake and it is especially tragic when it’s a child. In this episode, we visit the death of […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Dwarf (1989) – HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Setting a horror-based story at a carnival is gold, usually. The setting alone can be unsettling. The clowns, the lights and the unusual cast of characters make them an ideal location to tell a scary story. The 1989 episode of the Ray Bradbury Theater, “DWARF,” surrounds such […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Skeleton (1988) – Eugene Levy HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee “I finally found a doctor that understands.” — Bert Harris (Eugene Levy) I’ve always been a fan of Eugene Levy. He has had a great career where he’s done a lot of great work and some work that was merely a paycheck. Whatever the case, he always […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime (1988) – Donald Pleasence HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee “If she’s alive, she wasn’t murdered. So you can’t execute me.” – George Wills (Donald Pleasence) As a huge horror fan, the name Donald Pleasence is something to praise. He has been in many films, but the one that matters to most is his recurring role in […]
