Annabelle (2014) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

Baron asked me to review another film from The Conjuring series so I decided on Annabelle since it’s the prequel to The Conjuring [2013] that I previously reviewed. I do enjoy the movies in this franchise so this may not be my last. Annabelle was directed by John R. Leonetti (The Silence [2019]) and had…


The Spider (1958) – By Baron Craze

In the mid-1950s the horror genre began to become influenced by science using radiation as a catalyst for gigantism namely film such as Godzilla [1954], Them! [1954], and Tarantula [1955] it is that film that heavily influenced, this movie, and American International Pictures (AIP) already having a firm hold on the teenage market, thanks to…


Camp Dread (2014) – By Baron Craze

When it comes to the subgenre of slashers flicks, I have seen plenty of them, and their quality runs the gambit from stellar to atrocious, some show true originality like Scream [1996] to the titans Friday the 13th [1980] and Halloween [1978] to the classic My Bloody Valentine [1981]; therefore, when another one is made…


The House of Seven Corpses (1973) – By Baron Craze

Sometimes in the horror genre’s history you’ll find a film that has an interesting backstory concerning its true date of release, this is one of those movies. The classification according to IMDb it was released in 1974, but in true reality it was unleashed in December 1973, which is proved by two different sources first…


Terror Trips (2021) – By Baron Craze

Terror Trips was one of a few movies that had SAG provisions and filmed during the Covid-19 pandemic, hence director and writer Jeff Seemann altered the script to allow for more exterior shots; thereby lowered the infection possibilities all for his debut feature movie. In fact, the filmmakers took the safety of both the cast…


The Conjuring (2013) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (AKA 3C)

Who knew that The Conjuring would start a movie “universe?” Well, it obviously took after this release in 2013 with director James Wan who is an iconic director with such films as Saw [2004], Dead Silence [2007], and Insidious [2010] with writer Chad Hayes (The Turning [2020]). Although, It starts with the cliché “based on…


Strait-Jacket (1964) – By Baron Craze

The ultimate Master of Gimmicks, Director Willam Castle (13 Ghosts [1960]) first paid homage to his idol Alfred Hitchcock with Homicidal [1961] with another marketing ploy that tested the audiences’ courage, however with the Strait Jacket his approach was to make a horror psychological film without his standard flair. While this film didn’t set the…


Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987) – By Baron Craze

The original Prom Night [1980] now has a curious following with two distinct camps those that following Oscar winning star Jamie Lee Curtis and the fanatics of the slasher subgenre that enjoy this slow-burn flick. However, none of that relates to a strange sequel that emerged seven years later sharing only the setting of Hamilton…


Christine (1983) – By Baron Craze

There’re two things to truly understand with this film, aside from a great story it falls squarely in the killer vehicle subgenre and at the time of the release many people especially viewers in United States had a love affair with cars. In fact, many men still give their cars a girl’s name and there’s…


Rosemary’s Baby (1968) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (AKA 3C)

I know it’s been a while since I’ve done a review, but my family had so much going on. I was asked by Baron to do a review on Rosemary’s Baby. I was surprised as it seemed like a religious horror movie (which it is to me) and I don’t delve deep into my reviews,…
