ManWithPez

Would that all parody films were created with such love and care as this one was.

What can I write about one of the funniest movies ever made?  Not much that you haven’t already heard, so I’ll keep this short.  If you haven’t seen Young Frankenstein, well, first off, what are you doing here?  Second off, do you realize you’re letting one of the best written, most brilliant pieces of film get past you?  No?  Well, get to watching it, dummy! (more…)

Aww...that's cute. It's like she hasn't seen a horror/monster movie before. You never know until you try!

Let’s face it.  I’ve watched a lot of horror films.  That being said, it’s easy to get disinterested in the genre.  Then along comes a movie you’ve never heard of and changes everything.  For me, just recently, that movie was the awesome monster flick Splinter. (more…)

We (ThatWeirdGirl and myself) have decided to carry on with the horror film reviews, even though we lost our partner Chris.  Here’s hoping we can work together in the very near future.  Also, the new list of films will be chosen by ThatWeirdGirl.  She also made us another graphic to go with it, that I think is just nifty.  So, starting again today, we will continue to film reviews.  Sorry we missed a day.  Then again, there have been several times in my life that I’ve missed a day of something.  School, work, prison…you name it.

We’re sorry to announce that it appears we will not be able to continue the Trilogy of Terror.  These things happen from time to time.  Therefore, just consider this day a bye and accept our apologies for not getting a review done today.  ThatWeirdGirl and I will begin new reviews tomorrow, with a new list composed of films chosen by ThatWeirdGirl.  FUN!

For now, though…courage.

If the price for this table dance WAS death...I'd still pay it. DAMN YOU SATANICO!!!

Oh, there’s going to be problems in my future, I think, over this review of From Dusk Till Dawn.  Why?  Well, while I admit to thinking that this was a fun movie when I was a younger man.  Now, however, the shine is off the apple.  And, opinions on this movie tend to run hot. (more…)

I'll join you in the fruit cellar, Cheryl! I promise!

One of these days, we’ll get to a movie that I haven’t reviewed before, but it won’t be today.  The Evil Dead is a brilliant, disgusting gem of a film, shot with love, ingenuity, on the cheap, and definitely on the fly. (more…)

Dear Let Me In,

I’m going to see you later today, and I just wanted to impart a small word of warning.  DO…NOT…SUCK.  Well, not suck in…I mean, sure you’re a vampire movie…YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!  I just rewatched your predecessor last night, and I agree with one of the blurbs on the back of the DVD case.  It has become one of those iconographic horror films that everyone must see.  The shoes you are trying to step in are gigantic.  Like, clownshoe gigantic without all the pies in the face or seltzer bottles.  Don’t be like M. Night, who garnered my first word of warning on this site, and now has a permanent black mark for me.  Don’t ruin Chloe Moretz for me, either, got it!   That is all.

Sincerely,

ManWithPez

If someone had just given the little shit a hug, all this could have been avoided.

I’ve previously reviewed this movie last year, but it’s such a good movie, there’s no reason not to take another brief crack at it.  Halloween was, by design, it seems, never supposed to be franchise spinning juggernaut, but that’s just what it’s become.  (more…)

Malls suck! Malls filled with zombies, doubly so.

This will be the review that loses me at least one of my six readers (sorry, Grandma).  Why?  Well, Dawn of the Dead is one of the most critically acclaimed horror films of all time.  I’m about to badmouth it. (more…)

Damn! That middle pumpkin is TERRIFYING!

Back when ManWithPez first started lo almost a year ago, I started off on a quest to write at least one horror film review for every day of October leading up to Halloween.  I accomplished that mission handily, I think.  This year, in collaboration with ThatWeirdGirl (nee’ ThatCostumeGirl) and Chris Gaskey of ChrisDude and The Dork Tower fame, we are going to…well, we’re just going to do the same thing I did last year.  Heh.  The difference is that Chris has chosen the list of films we shall review.  As we are planning to make this an annual event, next year will be ThatWeirdGirl’s turn to pick.  Some of the films, I’ve already reviewed, but I’m not skipping out on those.  All new reviews will come for the movies I’ve already reviewed, as well as links to the two other blogger’s daily reviews of the same movies.  We three are all allowed to review seperate films alone, or in conjunction with one or both other members of the team.  We’re all very excited about the possibilities.  As you can tell from my (Oh damn!  What word do I say here?  Uh…Nipples?  No, that’s wrong.  PANTS!  Shit!  That’s even worse…uh…uh…) writing.  You can expect dissent, as ThatWeirdGirl has already pointed out on her Livejournal blog.  I think that’s the most exciting part for me.  I’m representing Wordpress, Chris is coming in with Tumblr, and ThatWeirdGirl is using Livejournal as her platform.  Anyways, we hope you like what we’re about to do.  Expect a few kinks in the beginning.  We don’t really know what we’re doing.
