Mitchell (Ben Browder) and Landry (Beau Bridges) are both spending some time out at O’Neill’s cabin – don’t get excited, there’s no appearance by Richard Dean Anderson here (stay tuned) – for a chance to decompress. The rest of the group is supposed to be there, but… Teal’c (Christopher Judge), Carter (Amanda Tapping) and Vala…

Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010) – Eli Craig
Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk star in this horror-comedy that puts the murderous hillbilly horror trope on its ear. A group of annoying college kids, led by Allison (Katrina Bowden) and Chad (Jesse Moss) are headed up into the woods for a weekend of debauchery but are extremely creeped out when they come across a…

A Classic Horror Story (2021) – Roberto De Feo, and Paolo Strippoli
I love taking a look at foreign horror films, because all filmmakers approach the genre from their own experiences, their culture, and their influences, and what scares some people may only be entertaining to others. The Italian film, A Classic Horror Story, plays our very enjoyable, and has a couple of shifts from horror sub-genre…
The Boy Who Cried Werewolf (1973) – Nathan Juran
Have I told you how much I hate when people shoot day for night? Ugh. And it is so prevalent in the next film recommended from DK Canada’s Monsters in the Movies book as I continue exploring the werewolf chapter. Honestly, this one is pretty horrible. It’s budget is so strained that it feels more…

Monster on the Campus (1958) – Jack Arnold
Jack Arnold makes one more appearance in the Sci-Fi Chronicles book, and this time, it takes us to school, with Monster on the Campus (I personally feel they could have dropped the ‘the’, but oh well). This one is, sadly, nowhere near as fun as Creature from the Black Lagoon, or The Incredible Shrinking…
