Horror Movies
Carpenter, Hooper serve up a good supply of ‘Body Bags’ (1993)
‘Memoirs of an Invisible Man’ (1992) shouldn’t get lost in Carpenter’s catalog
Frightening Friday (Movie review): This mainstream effort contains the director’s visual style and logistical insight into the monstrous SF condition.
‘Prince of Darkness’ (1987) is Carpenter’s thoughtful take on religious horror
Frightening Friday (Movie review): The director crafts a gritty urban take on “The Thing’s” claustrophobia with a vibrant cast of researchers.
King, Carpenter team up for killer car flick ‘Christine’ (1983)
Stephen King flashback (Movie review): The horror legends join forces for the only time, in an imperfect but memorable way.
‘Someone’s Watching Me!’ is even more 1978 than ‘Halloween’
Frightening Friday (Movie review): Carpenter efficiently packages Seventies paranoia as a prime-time vehicle for Lauren Hutton.
We’re all wearing Milk-Bone underwear in ‘Good Boy’ (2025)
Movie review: The 73-minute horror film gives a dog’s view of life, and perhaps monsters.
‘The Mummy Returns’ (2001) … but maybe it shouldn’t have
Frightening Friday (Movie review): The appeal of Fraser and Weisz is still there, but this time it’s not enough.
‘Dracula: Dead and Loving It’ (1995) takes Brooks back to Transylvania
Mel Brooks Monday (Movie review): And also back to basics, as the director/co-writer sets aside industry references and simply spoofs Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”
‘Mummy’ (1999) puts impressive wrap on 20th century Universal Monster flicks
Frightening Friday (Movie review): And it’s debatable whether anything from the new century has matched Stephen Sommers’ film.
‘From Dusk Till Dawn’ (1996) is a really good half of a movie
Frightening Friday (Movie review): Rodriguez and Tarantino have fun making a grindhouse-style movie. It’s almost at the film’s expense.
