Monster Shack Movie Reviews

Highlander 2 (1991) Thanks to Karl for suffering through Highlander 2 for us. It really was only a matter of time before this movie would be posted on the Shack, but I sure as hell didn’t want to be the one to have to watch it!

Escape From Galaxy 3 (1981) Yes, it’s the follow up to “Star Crash”…only without the sophisticated plot and great special effects. Yeah, it’s that bad! Still not convinced? Check out this sample:

Thanks to Sean for sneaking in a quick review before the new year…the Monster Shack never sleeps! (mwu-ha-ha-ha)

R.O.T.O.R. (1988) Sorry for the long wait since the last review. If anybody is still out there…I humbly present R.O.T.O.R. as a peace offering. Still not sure you want to go on? Let the trailer whet your appetite

After a very, very busy summer and fall, I’m happy to say winter has set in. In fact it’s snowing right now. But you don’t care about the weather do you? All you care about is crappy movies and I have a ton of them to get through this winter, so hang in there. New [...]

First, let me just shout: “Beware SPOILERS, all ye who enter here…” OK, I managed to sneak out to the movies last Friday and see the new “The Thing” with some friends and, boy, I really, really wanted to like the movie more than I did, but I just couldn’t. Why not?: 1) No character [...]

I know it’s been a while, but I’ve been really busy. Sorry for the lack of activity. Real life…what are you gonna do? Anyway, I can give you a couple tidbits in the mean time: The CDC actually has instructions for surviving a zombie apocalypse. No, seriously, it does. I thought that was pretty cool. [...]

*** Comment button fixed *** Yep, the rumors may be true after all: A “prequel” to John Carpenters “The Thing”. I’ve heard rumors about it but I never dared to get my hopes up. It doesn’t look like any huge-named stars in the cast, so it might actually be a good. Feeling cautiously optimistic.

Is it just me or does he always seem to look the same? Somebody suspected he was a cyborg. I have good memories of being a wee lad and listening to my dad’s album “Let’s Get Small”…I didn’t understand much of it (ah…youth), but still laughed my ass off at certain bits. (Embezzling cat, King [...]

Thanks for the smiles…

Thanks to Stephan Taubman for another great graphic! Click on the link below for the full sized picture. Huzzah! By the way: This graphic has been added to the Crocosaurus review, so please leave any comments there.

Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus (2009) Get ready to rumble!!!

Waterworld (1995) Karl braves the muddy waters of the well-known goofy film “Waterworld”…So dive right in. Ha ha. Boy I’m funny. Thanks Karl! (Is this movie really nearly 20 years old! Ack! I’m getting old!)

Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus (2010) Thanks to Sean for suffering through this cheesy Netflix sludge and actually remembering enough to write a review; you have nerves of steel, my friend.

The Beast with a Million Eyes (1955) An alien crashes to Earth and takes over a couple of animals and some unfortunately humans. Let the horror begin! Sort of… Thanks to Randy for this fun guest review.

Birdemic (2008) Truly, one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. It’s so bad that I can’t believe it wasn’t made this way on purpose. Then again, you’d think that people had better things to do with their time, like, oh, I don’t know, writing reviews of bad movies. Bonus YouTube clip for those who [...]

Yup, it looks like Yvette Vickers body was found in her Hollywood apartment. She had been dead for at least a year and was found in a nice warm room with the space heater still on…you can visualize that if you want to…but I’d rather remember her as she was in the “Attack of the [...]

Behemoth (2011) Thanks to Sean for this guest review. Yes, Behemoth! Something about some backpackers, a mountain, a rubber monster, and well, it’s a bunch of made-for-TV cheese for you to enjoy.

Unknown World (1951) I now submit for your perusal a short review of a short, somewhat dreary film: Unknown World. It’s about some folks that bore down into the Earth to find a cool place for humans to hide in case the world gets blown up in an atomic war. Oh, and they find some [...]

Barbarian Queen 2: The Empress Strikes Back (1992) Lucky you: I found an old review that fell between the cracks when I moved to the new website format…Aren’t you happy now? Enjoy this Corman production if you can.
