The creatures, ghouls, ghosts, vampires, things that make you go bump in the night will make you scream! Yes that's the answer, it's fun to get scared, which almost gives you a sense of accomplishment, especially when you've conquered the haunted houses. Ever go to a haunted house? Friends are all freaked out, and you come out on top. The real reason is because deep down inside, you're scared stra...

Barbour), Brain Lee Franklin (Davis Knight), Kerry Cahill (Mary/ Yeoman Farmer). Opening sequence: A major part of reviewing a film like this is getting the facts, historical scenes right. Why?

Must have something to work with, because if the facts are twisted, then the movie will hurt in the box office. Films with so much facts make it to a four or five star mega hit, but in the case of this film, the box office was a different story.  Remember everything is all opinion, and t...

I review what i want reviewed, good, bad, the ugly, because sometimes you'll find some really good movies at the bottom. With that being said, this movie i found, and i recorded, only to find that it has two other movies as well. Sharktopus vs Pteracuda, Sharktopus vs Whalewolf, and the start of it all, Sharktopus.

There is so much i could rant about in this film, and in this review i'll bring up some points, not all, but points that make sense, ...
