 Direct-To-Video Ho...  


  
Boa
Dean Cain, Elizabeth Lackey

Sony Pictures, 2002

Not that bad (a LOT better than Python)

I don't know why many people did not like this film. Its true, the snake gets very little screen time and is kept in the shadows most of the time, but the plot and the sequence of the movie were very good in my opinion. At least the snake in this movie doesn't change in size like the one in python. ...
  
  











  



  
Octopus 2: River of Fear
Michael Reilly Burke, Meredith Morton

Lions Gate, 2002

EIGHT LEGGED FREAK

OCTOPUS 2 is a sequel that isn't a sequel; it has nothing to do with the original, and nothing is ever really said that indicates how this puppy got so big...but, as a run of the mill creature feature, it has its moments. I liked the rapport between partners Walter and Nick (Frederic Lane and ...

Deadly Species
Pete Penuel, Allison Adams

Lions Gate, 2003

Classic, cheesy B movie

As only the B&W classic drive-in movies could do, or a Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie could do, this is the classic, cheesy,and fun B movie. Deadly Species is funny and dopey and almost good. It's got all the elements.....bad sound, bad music, gratutious nude scenes with pretty girls, some ...
  
  











  



  
Spiders
Lana Parrilla, Josh Green

Lions Gate, 2001

Giant spiders

+ An amusing cheap sci-fi flick
+ Giant spiders

I think Gary Jone's Spiders movie is really great!! In fact I'm a spider liker myself! It was really interesting,I like the way he designed the Funnel Web Spider,except they don't spin ORB WEBS,they spin a Burrow thats lined with web.Its real strange how that Gray guy got to the place before Marci ...
  
  











  



  
Crocodile
Mark McLachlan, Caitlin Martin

Lions Gate, 2000

this was a good movie

+ Possibly the best of the movies from these series

CROCODILE was a great horror flick. its about a group of college kids on spring break going on a boating trip on a river in louisiana. they begin the trip going along and having fun until the mess with the crocs nest and ruin the eggs and steal 1 of them. the croc is infuriated and goes after ...

Bram Stoker's The Mummy
Louis Gossett Jr., Amy Locane

Simitar Ent., 1998

Third Time's (Almost) A Charm

Faithful third film adaptation of Bram Stoker's The Jewel Of Seven Stars (following Blood From the Mummy's Tomb and The Awakening) doesn't deliver all it promises, but it delivers enough to be worth watching. Archaeologist Lloyd Bochner is attacked in his locked study, and has left very specific ...
  
  











  



  
Sasquatch
Lance Henriksen, Andrea Roth

Sony Pictures, 2003

Unscary, Bad Acting, BigFoot looks stupid, Plots bad

I think I just summed everythign up with the title. This is just a film thats not the worst you have ever seen, but dont expect it to be much, it will let you down.
  
  











  



  
Crocodile 2: Death Swamp
Heidi Lenhart, Chuck Walczak

Lions Gate, 2002

Not quite as good as its predescessor

I've seen too many movies to be able to show the range of quality difference with only five ratings, so in short - I consider this to be a "low four star rating", while I consider the previous "Crocodile" to be a "high four-star rating". In other words, while I give both of them four stars, this ...
  
  











  



  
The Day the World Ended
Nastassja Kinski, Bobby Edner

Sony Pictures, 2002

The Day the World Ended 1956

+ IT CAME FROM INNER SPACE...

After the Atomic destruction a hand full of people find them selves in a valley that escaped the initial radiation. Naturedly the mix is of innocent and not so innocent women and men. This is not just any valley it was especially picked by a survivalist that expected the big one to be dropped and ...
  
  











  



  
Spiders II: Breeding Ground
Stephanie Niznik, Greg Cromer

Lions Gate, 2002

It's really not that terrible

This movie doesn't have anything to do with the first Spiders, but that's okay with me. It's about a couple that are shipwrecked, and picked up by another ship. The husband is ill, and the ship's doctor is giving him drugs to, supposedly, cure him. He starts to suspect something odd is going on ...
  
  











  



  
Ancient Evil - Scream of the Mummy
Jeff Peterson, Trent Latta

Spartan, 2000

One of DeCoteau's Best Flicks

I bought this movie because I am a big fan of director David DeCoteau's B movies, and look forward to the somewhat silly horror he offers in all of his B movies. This movie was better than his average film though; and apart from a few mistakes in the plot about the Aztec culture, (they didn't have ...
