By Melissa Antoinette Garza In the past, I’ve shied away from reviewing ROSEMARY’S BABY (1968) despite it being one of my favorite films. As a woman and a human being, Roman Polanski is not my favorite person. Rather than getting on an unpleasant soapbox, I’ll simply note that sometimes very […]

Amityville Horror and Amityville Horror 2: The Possession – Horror Movie Reviews

The Sentinel (1977) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza “Blind….but then what does he look at?” THE SENTINEL (1977) is one of the most frightening and fulfilling films of all time. It is on my list of favorites and on my list of movies I won’t watch alone. The characters play the parts so naturally […]
