Sleepaway Camp (1983) – 5.12.2020 I have this movie on DVD as part of the “Survival Kit” including the first two sequels. My kit has the American Red Cross logo on the front that was eventually recalled. From 1983, this film still has that early 80’s aesthetics, a bit rough around the edges. It starts […]… Continue reading Movie Review: Sleepaway Camp (1983) — The Horror Desk

Friday the 13th: Part 3 – 4.14.2020 I have seen this entry several times and have it on disc. It used to be my favorite Friday film because I liked the characters, the actors and such. At this point I think my favorite sequel would have to be Part 2. In Part 3, for the […]… Continue reading Movie Review: Friday the 13th Part 3D — The Horror Desk

Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) – 5.2.2020 I have the 30th anniversary DVD of this film and decided to buy the 40th anniversary Blu Ray for better picture quality. Although this is a grainy movie and rightfully so, I could still see the difference in sharpness and color between the two versions. I think this […]… Continue reading Movie Review: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) — The Horror Desk

Night of the Comet (1984) – 5.5.2020 I first saw this movie when I was a kid one day after school. I came home and my mom was watching it already so I missed what happened before the comet appeared. I loved the movie right away, though. Night of the Comet came out at the […]… Continue reading Movie Review: Night of the Comet (1984) — The Horror Desk

The Stepfather (1987) – 5.22.2020 I had never seen this movie before. I saw that there are a few sequels and I have seen the 2009 remake. I remember liking the remake, it was chilling. The original is probably more of a thriller rather than straight horror and I probably should have known this prior […]… Continue reading Series Review: The Stepfather — The Horror Desk

Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994) – 6.9.2020 It’s hard to believe that this sequel came out only 3 years after Freddy’s Dead, which looks dated, has an awful story and characters. New Nightmare is opposite of Freddy’s Dead in every way, in my opinion. Wes Craven returned to write and direct a truly unique and […]… Continue reading Movie Review: Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994) — The Horror Desk

Graduation Day (1981) – 5.7.2020 This is my first viewing of this film. Going into it I didn’t really know what it was about but given the release year my expectations weren’t high. As much as I enjoy teen slashers and the 80’s there are some poorly produced films that don’t deserve the recognition they […]… Continue reading Movie Review: Graduation Day (1981) — The Horror Desk

I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) – 7.4.2020 I saw this in the movie theater when it came out and I cannot believe that was in 1997. I was in the middle of high school and after Scream came out there were a few “copycat” movies that followed, this being the biggest. Yet […]… Continue reading Movie Review: I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) — The Horror Desk

One read of the title. One look at the poster featuring the baby with a plexiglass skull cap. One watch of the trailer. . . . I’m spider-sensing pure exploitation attitude of the ’80s home video variety: here comes the neon-wireframed VHS tape spinning on another Prism Video production (You Tube). I’ve just got Doc […]… Continue reading Baby Frankenstein (2020) — B&S About Movies

For more information on the band please visit their official website, Facebook, YouTube, or Spotify.… Continue reading First Jason’s New Music Video “Kill For Mother” — INDIE HORROR REVIEW
