Not to be confused with the other 1998 film of the same name, Jack Frost (1997) is a black comedy b-movie, slasher where a crazed serial killer gets genetically fused with snow in a freak acid accident. He comes back from the dead, still homicidal as before his demise, as a crazed killer snowman!
Could this movie be a part of your Christmas tradition for years to come?
According to the Goosebumps Fanwiki, R. L. Stine took inspiration from Stephen Kings’s Thinner when writing Chicken Chicken. Will it compare? Surely not?! Let’s scratch a little deeper…
In our last review, Frankenturkey (1994) it was concluded that the book was a bit of a bore. With Thanksgiving just gone, and in the spirit of fairness, I thought it would be a good idea to review Frankenturkey 2. I liked the idea of the previous book, but its execution (much of that like Frankenturkey in the first book) was poor – but will this demonic turkey redeem itself in the sequel?
With Thanksgiving not long away, I thought I would read and review Betsy Haynes’ Frankenturkey. This was the 4th book in the Bone Chillers series, which was one of the many YA horror series that jumped on the Goosebumps bandwagon. Not long ago I reviewed R. L. Stine’s Attack of the Jack-O’-Lanterns, another holiday horror aimed at a YA audience released in 1996, which got me curious in this book.
In the 2000s there was a trend for movie studios to cash in on successful horror franchises from the previous decade. Alone in the Dark was Lionsgate’s hat in the ring, following Sony Pictures Releasing’s Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Apocalypse movies, and Artisan Entertainment’s House of the Dead. Sounds like a cash grab right? You’re not wrong!
When I found out about Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, and how the idea came about I was intrigued. I was even more intrigued when it was described as “a throwback to the gory glory days of 90s horror cinema”, so of course I had to watch this film!
