Sequels: Part I

I saw an enormous ad for National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets the other day, and it got me pretty fired up. TGOGS and I left the Wonder Twins behind when the original Natty Treas hit the theaters and we loved it. Kind of. I mean it was way too long, but totally awesome none [...]

Behind the Mask

I know Halloween is over, but there is one more horror movie I need to talk about before I move on.
The lovely Sherpa and I returned to the ATX this weekend to kick it somewhat old skool with TGOGS and Obidiah. TGOGS suggested that we check out Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon. [...]

Shhh. The Doll Lady is Everywhere.

Halloween is finally here. I love it, but it saddens me, as I now have to let the spoookiness go until next year. However, I do have one day left for terror, and I am going to use it.
Myself, the lovely Sherpa, and our House Guest from the West Coast (HGWC) have spent the last [...]

Spooooky! (‘07)

Last week, I highlighted some of the worst Halloween movies that the SciFi channel had to offer. Last year, in a post cleverly titled Spooooky!, I tried to highlight some horror movies that I feel the people need to see. Not the classics, but ones that have, for some unknown reason, been missed by far [...]

Time to Get Spooooky

With Halloween quickly approaching, I want to put together at least a few posts celebrating my favorite holiday of the year (take that Birth/Resurrection of Jesus!). Sorry. That was uncalled for. Especially when effing Flag Day is really the bain of my existence.
Anyway, to get things started, I have returned to the familiar stomping grounds [...]

Name that Movie: Is it…Naked Demon Summoning Circle?

Last week, I was flipping through the channels (finally got cable!) and testing myself as I am wont to do. The test is to see how quickly I can name the movie that is showing. My goal is always to get it before I hear a line of dialogue, and as my former roommates can [...]

Rage Goes On: CTC Defends/Trashes Halloween

The Halloween debate continues here at GIK. BTS and myself have weighed in, and now CTC (a relative newcomer to the world of Grieco) lays forth his treatise:
Here is an interesting little fact that I don’t know if you are aware:
I saw Halloween 2 before I saw the original, so to me, Carpenter’s
version was a [...]

BTS Coins Phrase, Reviews Halloween

BTS has returned from a viewing of the new Halloween and has posted a comment on the picture, my review, and “WTEG.” Here is BTS’ take on the situation (CTC, where is yours, sir? Where is yours?):
I just saw Halloween. First let me say that I really like Zombie’s other films. The Devil’s Rejects is [...]

Rage Not Stopped: Zombie Butchers Halloween

Spoiler Alert: This is a rare occurrence for GIK. I am going to review a movie that just came out that many of you might actually want to see, so if you don’t want to know plot details of the new version of Halloween, please stop reading. However, if you would like to hear about [...]

The Twilight Tron

The lovely Sherpa stumbled upon a bold piece on the Sleuth network last night. I was surprised, because I thought Sleuth just ran reruns of “Colombo,” “Magnum P.I.,” and “Miami Vice” over and over again, which of course is totally awesome. However, on this All Hallows’ Eve, they busted out with some “horror.” And thank [...]
