Review: Resident Evil (2002)

Really need to get back in the swing of writing my reviews... and with both spooky season and a new Resident Evil movie coming up, what better time to start than now?

Review Double Feature: Night of the Living Dead (1968) and Night of the Living Dead (1990)

It's zombie time! Another double feature, this time original vs. remake. In advance of the Spooky Picture Show's screening of the director's cut of the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead at Cinema Salem this past Saturday night, I went back and watched the 1968 original to both see how it holds up and have something to compare the remake to. Given that the original is a stone-cold classic, I think this competition is a foregone conclusion... or is it?

First, the original...

Review Double Feature: [REC] (2007) and [REC] 2 (2009)

For the first "real" horror movies of this spooky season, I decided to dig back a bit to my teenage years for a film that I'd seen hyped up but which I never got a chance to see until now... and then, its sequel, because a) the first movie turned out to be awesome, and b) the second film is about as clear-cut a "Part 2" as you can get.

So let's kick off with...
