That cover reminds me of when horror movies actually had really awesome poster art that just screamed “WATCH THIS MOVIE!” Even if the movie didn’t live up to the poster, at least they were creative in making it. Thankfully, the 1978 film, The Toolbox Murders lives up to the poster art. I know that’s the … Continue reading
Well, we finally achieved it. We made it onto the radio. The B-Action Thread has been one of the major mainstays of CHUD since it was created by Chris Wood (Desslar as he was known before) in January of 2006. This was coincidentally right around the time that I joined CHUD. I love spending a … Continue reading
My last several blogs have been recommendations of movies that I really like a lot. As I type this, I’m nursing a damn sinus headache that was brought about from my allergies that are in overdrive right now. A few days ago however, I came upon an idea to start a new blog series that … Continue reading
Where do I start with this little seen Italian post apocalyptic gem? Well, I first rented it back in 2005, as one of the “Rent 3 get 1 free” rentals at the Mom And Pop shop that I rented tons of vhs tapes from. I just grabbed it because it seemed interesting, and it turned … Continue reading
MAJOR SPOILERS THROUGHOUT THIS REVIEW! 2 weeks ago, I witnessed an action spectacle that I had been anticipating for quite some time. I was not disappointed.

Reviews are already out, and reception is … Continue reading

Then there’s a movie another WWII movie with Clint Eastwood that I was introduced to in 3rd grade via … Continue reading
Last week I was taking in my daily summer evening movie viewing with my pal Rolando, and he mentioned he hadn’t seen Fast Times At Ridgemont High. I hadn’t seen my dvd of it in about 2 years, so we decided to watch it. Another thing that spurred the viewing was seeing the Family Guy … Continue reading
2 weekends ago, I went on a trip to San Antonio. It was my first trip in a while, and I just needed it. Funny that the start ended up being forced. My friend Rolando and I were supposed to leave early Saturday since my other friend, Dannis was supposed to work part of Saturday, … Continue reading
2 summers ago, Hurricane Dolly ravaged the little town I lived in. I’d never seen anything like it, and I hope I never see anything like it again. There’s still a fallen here on the property that we still haven’t cut up that fell down, because it’s so thick. All we could do was trim … Continue reading
