This is the fifth installment of this series. In this film they start off the story of where the original film takes
off. The apes are in control of the planet & the humans are the slaves. When the apes explore the uncharted
burnt out city, they discover there are still humans alive there. The humans fear the apes will come after them
, so they decide to attack first. The gorillas go straight into battle with them & try to take control of all the
apes & kill off the humans. Battle then breaks out with the gorillas & the rest of the apes. This film was just
as good as the rest of the films in this series. If you like them you'll like this one as well!!!

DAY OF THE DEAD 2: CONTAGIUM (R) ANCHOR BAY (2005)
Starring: Laurie Baranyay, Steve Colosi, John Freedom, Julian Thomas, Jackeline Olivier & more.
This film is supposed to take place after the original
DAY OF THE DEAD movie. This film takes place in a
mental hospital. When some of the patients are out on a clean up leave, one of them finds a canister that he
takes back to the hospital. Once there, one of the patients opens it & releases a virus that the patients all
breath in. It starts turning them into flesh eating zombies & they start attacking everyone they can get a bite
scenes were OK though. This film was not writing or had anything to do with George A Ramero. It's very
sad that this film is attached to his classics, because it does the series no justice!!! Be warned!!!

farm house, but not until one of them takes some hostages in a mother & daughter. He ties them up & keeps
them in the house. He goes to the barn to look for his partners & finds a killer who attacks him. The new
killer goes after all the others & eventually kills them, except for the mother who fights back. She goes all
out on a rampage & saves herself & her daughter. This sounded better than it was. There was poor
storyline, poor acting  & poor special effects, the few that there were. This is a very bad horror film, if you
can call it a horror film!!!

is a classic 80's horror film & the first of the woman's horror movement. The film was writing & directed all
by woman. A teenage girl's parents are going away for the weekend & she decides to have some friends over
for a slumber party. There happens to be a serial killer on the loose who decides to crash the party. Some of
the girls boyfriends show up before the serial killer starts his killing spree. He uses an electric drill as his
weapon of choice. He attacks the men & women & drills them full of holes. Side film was very slow moving
& had some really bad acting & special effects weren't that great as well. There was a few good gory parts &
a few nude scenes. This is not the greatest horror film, but it is a classic 80's horror film!
SPECIES 3 (R) MGM (2004)
Starring: Robin Dunne, Robert Knepper, Sunny Mabry, Amelia Cooke, John Paul Pitoc & more.
This is the 3rd installment in the
SPECIES series of films. In this one a scientist steals the body of Eve
,who was gunned down in the last film. He wants the body for the unborn child inside her. He gets the baby
find a mate to help her species live on. The doctor stole her eggs so this wont happen, because they might
wipe out all of the human race. This film series just keeps going down hill with each new sequel. The story
was a little bit slow & the acting was a bit lame as well. The only good things was the lead actress that
played Sara. She was decent as well as the other female aliens that shows up later on in the film. If you like
the other films you'll probably enjoy this one.

TALES FROM THE CRAPPER (R) TROMA ENTERTAINMENT (2004)

DOOM (R) UNIVERSAL PICTURES (2005)
Starring: The Rock, Karl Urban, Rosamund Pike, Dexter Fletcher, Ben Daniels & more.
This film is based on the popular video game of the same name. The movie is about a group of soldiers sent
to a planet to rescue any survivors left from an attack. The thing is they don't know what they were
attacked by. Once on the planet they find out, very quickly. Some alien race attacks their victims & plants
their seeds into them & uses them as a host. They transform the humans into the walking dead. The soldiers
have to fight their way through them to get to the survivors. I liked when they did the first person shooter
type scenes a lot, which is how the game was played. There was a lot of cool special effects & make up
FX's as well. This is a decent action / sci-fi film, that was much better than I thought it would be.

SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE 2 (R) NEW CONCORDE HOME ENT. (1987)
Starring: Crystal Bernard, Kimberly McArthur, Patrick Lowe, Juliette Cumming, Heidi Kozack & more.
This movie follows the young girl who lived across the street in the first film. She is now all grown up & has
a band with some other girls in her school. They go to stay at the one girls fathers new condo for the
weekend & practice, party & more. The one girl keeps having nightmares of a killer with a drill on the end of
a guitar. Her dreams eventually come true & the killer starts attacking, mutilating & killing all of her friends.
The acting was really bad, as well as the story & special effects. The killer was really lame & looked like a
bad cross between Elvis & Andrew Dice Clay. This one added in some comedy with the horror, but it
wasn't funny at all. The original was a little better than this sequel. You get to see Crystal Bernard (of
WINGS) in one of first roles!!!
