OK, OK, if you read the title I’m not spoiling anything by telling you that it’s a giant Gila monster. A small-town sheriff and a bright young... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~491611590276 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 10:58:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_491611590276?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_491488972420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - Rumors of robot-like men who can take out a regiment of trained soldiers are spreading. Can a priest-king really be controlling the minds of people telepathically to turn them into zombies? A group of military leaders think so, and they gather their... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~491488972420 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 09:42:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_491488972420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_491252977284?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - What would happen if a Russian defector being chased by his country’s enforcers bent on retrieving their stolen secrets found himself caught in a nuclear blast?

He lives up the road there at that big estate. He got himself married again. Jenni, I think her name is. Such a pretty young thing. But I tell you the death of Eric’s first wife hangs like a shadow over that place... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490439347844 Tue, 3 Nov 2009 11:24:07 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490439347844?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_490316009092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - There's a monster in these here swamps. Nobody believes me, but you will. Yes, you will. When the blood is sapped from your body by the giant leeches you will believe! The local game warden knows something's up, but the poor, unimaginative sheriff is not... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490316009092 Mon, 2 Nov 2009 10:29:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490316009092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489986428548?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - White Zombie is a pioneer of movies. I believe it was the first to ever introduce the concept of zombies, a concept more like the true voodoo legends than the Resident Evil types. It’s dark and creepy though sometimes slow... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~489986428548 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:01:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_489986428548?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489909096068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - One Body Too Many might best be described as a horror comedy. I wasn’t expecting that so as the movie began showing its lighter side I settled in for an hour of groans and boredom. I ended up enjoying the production a great deal... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~489909096068 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 15:37:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_489909096068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489650359940?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - The Invisible Ghost has nothing to do with anything invisible nor any ghosts. I suppose it could be a figurative title, some have even speculated on the supposed true meaning, but I don’t see enough thought behind any of this to suggest that the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~489650359940 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:29:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_489650359940?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_481209192068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad -   Downfall is the movie prelude to the Dead Space game (check out my review for the PS3 version). The overall story focuses on the events aboard the Ishimura, an intergalactic space ship.

Being that Resident Evil has long been my favorite game series it’s no wonder that I like Dead Space so much. It has... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~481208929924 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 10:26:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_481208929924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_476809694852?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - CSI started a phenomenon. It has been so popular that it has spawned two also popular spin-offs and practically revitalized the genre of crime drama. It is impressive in so many ways and still going admirably strong. Personally the Miami show has been my... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~476809694852 Thu, 9 Jul 2009 09:12:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_476809694852?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_476572520068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - When I think back on the most memorable Hulk episodes of years past none of the ones from season 3 come to mind. It might just be the only season with none that jump out. That didn’t stop me from getting or enjoying the season, though.

I’ve been here since the beginning playing game #1 since it first came out and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~471979757188 Thu, 28 May 2009 13:09:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_471979757188?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_471975759492?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - I haven’t been drawn in my very many anime series, but Death Note hooked me pretty quickly. Death gods with notebooks that can kill just by writing a name in them? That’s already a pretty interesting starting point. Give that notebook to a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~471975759492 Thu, 28 May 2009 12:32:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_471975759492?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_471711714948?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - Degeneration is everything I wanted out of a Resident Evil movie the first go around. OK, maybe not EVERYTHING, but it’s a lot closer than the live action movies. Don’t get me wrong, I like the live action movies, but they didn’t... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~471711714948 Tue, 26 May 2009 09:17:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_471711714948?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_466477551236?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - This fourth and final season of ALF starts off at a good pace but goes downhill quickly both as a show and as a TVD package. As I began the season I thought “wow, how did this thing get canceled after a season like this?

It sports a pretty typical plot formula just centered around the concept of an RV trip. Bob is a career-minded dad with two kids and a wife. They are mildly dysfunctional, but not to the point of the wife leaving or... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~456117816964 Tue, 30 Dec 2008 11:31:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_456117816964?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_456117358212?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - Manga Messiah is essentially the presentation of the story of Jesus in manga form. If you’re not sure what manga is, it’s pretty much a Japanese comic book (or graphic novel would probably be more accurate especially in this case).

Sci fi, super heroes, Kung Fu, lots of dark and weird things, and Bible stories. My top ten movies list includes a lot of things with Christian influence. So it’s not surprising... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~455604276868 Mon, 22 Dec 2008 16:30:59 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_455604276868?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_455086345860?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - Hasbro loves its repaints. I guess you can't blame them. Slightly retool an existing design and you've got a whole new product with little effort. Unfortunately that means that if you as a consumer are wanting the different characters you've got to buy... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~455086345860 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 11:42:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_455086345860?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_455086083716?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackiechad - Keep away from PumpkinheadUnless you're tired of livingHis enemies are mostly deadHe's mean and unforgivingEd and his son live a simple, secluded but fulfilling life.

I couldn't care less about Adam West's Batman, but Michael Keaton's - I was all about it. I was also a big fan of Jack Nicholson's Joker.
