“Happy Death Day”, the 2017 film from Christopher Landon, takes the premise of “Groundhog Day” and applies it to the slasher film genre, unfortunately, to mixed at best results.

You never know when the creepy skeletons in your mind’s closet are going to come out and make a night’s sleep a disturbing experience.

Like a lot of kids that grew up in the suburbs in the 1980s, “The Goonies” spoke to a sense of wonder and adventure that could be right around the corner in your backyard.

Like other great horror movies, Jaws is all about fear.

“Dazed and Confused” inspired my love of film and made me want to go into screenwriting, a life that’s been deferred but a life I ponder revisiting from time to time.
