Proud to admit that I am a horror junkie. However, my definition of what falls under the realm of horror entertainment is fairly wide. Horror is an emotion experienced differently by individuals. These are short reviews of the movies, television series, novels, comics, albums, and any thing else which crosses my path if I feel like falls into the wide world of horror entertainment.

Midnight Movie (2008)
Starring: Rebekah Brandes
Director: Jack Messitt
Premise:
A midnight showing of an infamous cult movie from the 70's causes it maker to drop in on the audience. Too bad he escaped from a mental institution three years earlier.
My Take:
It's got all the things which makes a fine slasher movie: a memorable villain and buckets of gore. And it has a nice twist with the victims becoming part of the movie, even if there is no attempt to explain why.
The movie is good to watch, but not great.
Rating: In the middle
