My Thoughts:
Definitely low budget horror here. But one I enjoyed. Sure... some of the acting is pretty bad. The effects aren't too bad for the most part. Passably anyway. I think if you can find it cheap... it is worth checking out for some leave your brain at the door horror fun.

My Rating: 3.5

My Thoughts:
Oh what to say about this one. This is a TV movie that originally aired on the Sci-Fi Channel.  As such it is pretty much what you would expect... entertaining but nothing to get excited about. Just a ridiculous cheesy mess. But hey... that can be fun at times too. William Katt (The Greatest American Hero) has a small part in this movie playing a doctor. Other familiar faces in this one include Gil Gerard (Buck Rogers), Bruce Boxleitner (Babylon 5) and Walter Koenig (Star Trek). The Bone Eater... which is a demonic skeleton... looks corny but he tends to grow on you. I know I was starting to get a kick out of him... especially when he was chasing a few people on motorcycles... and he brings forth a skeleton horse. While it is corny it just seemed cool on some level at the same time... if you know what I mean. I found the way he killed to be rather weird... but hey... for a TV movie I guess you can't expect a whole lot of blood. But he uses a weapon made of bone and when he strikes someone (or even breathes his nasty breath on them)... they just disintegrate into dust. This is really not one I feel comfortable recommending... but I did enjoy it for what it is. Corny fun.

A wickedly funny motion picture complete with all the hackcitement anyone could axe for! Dennis Miller, stunning supermodel Angie Everhart and Erika Eleniak join every bodies' favorite cutup, the Cryptkeeper, in a hip frightmare of sly humor, sex appeal and go-for-the-juglar special effects.

But wisecracking private eye Rafe Guttman (Miller) is on the case, and soon he must battle not only a den of scantily clad vampiresses, but also the Reverend Jimmy Current (Chris Sarandon), a slick televangelist with an all-powerful talisman.

The thrills and chills come so fast you'll never know where this tale will beheading next.

My Thoughts:
It has been a while since I watched this one last! I have always been a big fan of the Tales from the Crypt TV Series... so was thrilled when I first heard they were making some Tales from the Crypt movies. Extra thrilled when I heard they were making a vampire movie. I don't normally care much for Dennis Miller... but I actually enjoyed him in this one. I also enjoyed Erika Eleniak in it as well. This is just a fun vampire movie... with a nice amount of eye candy for us guys.

Legendary producer/director Dan Curtis (Dark Shadows, The Night Stalker) teams up with writers Richard Matheson (I Am Legend, The Twilight Zone) and William F.

In "Julie," an aggressive college student seduces and ultimately blackmails his seemingly shy English professor. In "Millicent and Therese," two polar-opposite sisters become increasingly hell-bent on the undoing of one another. And in "Amelia," a woman falls prey to a murderous Zuni fetish doll.

My Thoughts:
This is a TV movie from back in the '70s.  Remembering back to when I was a manager of our local video store... this movie was in great demand. Unfortunately at the time I never got to see it myself as the store's copy disappeared and none of our distributors at the time could locate a new copy for us (this is back in the VHS days). So the first time I got to see this movie was when I first got it on DVD back in 2007. And I must say I enjoyed it very much!

The first story,Julie, Karen Black plays a College Professor who gets seduced and blackmailed (as the cover says).I liked how the student didn't have as much control over things as he thought he did. An enjoyable segment... but not my favorite.

The next story is Millicent and Therese where we have some sibling rivalry.  This one, while I still enjoyed it, it wasn't as good as the first one. So this one has to be my least favorite segment of the movie.

The final story, Amelia, a woman falls prey to a murderous Zuni Fetish Doll. This is my favorite segment of the entire movie. It was very well done... especially for the time. And I just couldn't help but to get a kick out of that Zuni Fetish Doll. And as much as I liked that little guy... I must say the final scene is really what clinched this segment for me.

The DVD itself While good I am a little disappointed. The audio and video is just fine on my 24in standard TV. But I have a bit of a hard time with them calling this a special edition. All there is... is 2 featurettes and a commentary track. That seems to me a little slim to be calling it a special edition. But with that all said... I really enjoyed watching this movie again.

My Thoughts:
I am watching this one for Kaley Cuoco who I know from the series Charmed (Billie) and The Big Bang Theory (Penny). I originally bought this movie (about 3 yrs. ago) because of her being in it. That and because I always like the story of Sleepy Hollow. Nick Carter played a real jerk in the movie... and he did a better then I expected job. Not a great actor... but not terrible either. I think Kaley Cuoco did a fine job as well. I have mixed feelings about the pumpkin head on the Headless Horseman... it was some pretty cool graphics for sure... but there just seemed to be something slightly off about it. The movie itself is no more then a fun... leave your brain at the door.. popcorn movie. One that I really like a lot. Probably a little more then I should. The DVD itself is fine quality wise.... just nothing really offered in the line of extras. This is now the 4th time I watched this movie since I bought it.
