A fascinating discussion about the, well, history of horror films. From monster movies to psychological thrillers. Vampires to werewolves to masked murderers. Behind the scenes details and analysis of the trends and paradigm shifts that have occurred. Very well done!

A little long (basically a day’s commitment), but well worth it for any horror movie buff who enjoys watching the special features. An in depth look behind the hockey mask, and a how-to for beginning special effects artists.

Well, that was disturbing… spent most of these episodes going “why the hell would you do that?!?” Like playing with a Ouija board in a graveyard, some of the things they did on set of these films was just asking for something sinister to occur. So many classic films with skeletons in their closet, no pun intended.

Really makes me want to watch Galaxy Quest… mission accomplished. After hearing the hype for months following “honest trailers,” I was excited to finally find this on Amazon Prime. So many behind the scenes insights. Another one of those happy accidents that went on to become a cult classic. Beautiful, heartfelt tribute to Sir Alan Rickman. Wonderful overall documentary of the story of a legendary film that’s hard to categorize, beyond awesome.

More snow than a Michigan snow storm…
The classic f**king tale of Tony f**king Montana! Say hello to this f**king legendary film with some of the best f**king cinematography and acting in a gangster movie this side of the f**king Godfather trilogy. Al Pacino and company f**king shine as a perfect cast to bring this based on true events story to f**king life. If you have three f**king hours to spare, this is a great f**king way to spend it if you don’t mind a little blood and a few f**king profanities sprinkled in. The acting by Pacino in Tony’s finale is something to f**king behold. Many a master classes in the art of f**king acting. F**king great soundtrack, too.
