Drive Thru Review

A few minutes into Drive-Thru , the 2007 horror-comedy effort by directors Brendan Cowles and Shane Kuhn, I said to myself (or possibly I said it out loud), “Aww yeah! Looks like Avril and the Pussycats versus a Killer Klown from Outer Space! Let the Unholy Rumble commence!” It could have been goofy fun. Too […]

Top Ten Screen Satans

Yay for the good guys. Wheeeee! Well that was fun. Happy endings are good sometimes but mostly I like ‘em dark. As a horror fan, I find particular joy in the pain and suffering of others…on screen. And some of my favorite roles have been those of Old Scratch. Face it, he is just more […]
