Shadow on the Wall *** (1950, Ann Sothern, Zachary Scott, Gigi Perreau, Nancy Davis) – Classic Movie Review 8967
Director Pat [Patrick] Jackson’s 1950 MGM black and white B-movie psychological thriller Shadow on the Wall is an involved and involving, if predictable, melodramatic psychodrama, distinguished with an early score by André Previn and smartly […]

Poltergeist *** (2015, Sam Rockwell, Rosemarie DeWitt, Kennedi Clements, Jared Harris) – Movie Review
Director Gil Kenan reboots, reimagines and brings up to date Steven Spielberg’s 1982 classic tale about a family whose new suburban home is invaded by angry spirits. It’s a sign of the times that in […]
Mimic 2 **½ (2001, Alix Koromzay, Bruno Campos, Will Estes) – Classic Movie Review 2004
Formulaic but quite creepy and atmospheric 2001 direct-to-DVD sequel to the 1997 chiller hit with none of the original stars. A New York police detective named Det. Klaski (Bruno Campos) suspects that a high school […]
