Phantom Of The Opera 1925 Perhaps the rarest of all talents in the history of Hollywood was none other than Lon Chaney, a guy who not only was widely considered THE greatest actor of the silent era in terms of the emotional pantomime which is required of the silent acting artform (in many minds better […]
Phantom Of The Opera 2004 Has there EVER been a more often filmed story than this one? Originally based on Gaston LeRoux’s 1910 novel which in itself was a fictional “explanation” of a rumored “ghost” whom in real life was said to have haunted the Paris Opera House in the late 1800s and was even […]
Phantom Of The Opera ’89 Coming off his incredible success playing Freddy Krueger in The Nightmare On Elm Street films, it was natural for Robert Englund to want to branch out into playing other roles with the most obvious choices of course being roles in other horror films.

This film is not nearly as bad as people say and is actually an improvement over the occasional slowness of Dead Man’s Chest. Yes, it […]
Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl As a film phenomenom, pirate movies were originally popular back in the 30s and 40s, with classic oldschool swashbucklers like Errol Flynn and Tyrone Power making the genre completely their own, and then it would see a brief revival in the late 70s and early […]
Plan 9 From Outer Space Bad movies can best be described as an acquired taste, productions that are so awful in nearly every aspect (acting, writing, directing, etc.) that they achieve a kind of beyond enjoyable, surrealistic effect.
