SciFridays: “Maniac” (1980)

Baddie: Mommy issues, as per usual. Lesson: He told you not to go out. As you’ll recall, I tackled the remake of this film, starring one Elijah Wood, a few weeks ago. I haven’t reviewed an honest to goodness slasher movie in a while, so I thought I’d also give the original a go. I’m also usually…

Scifridays: “Self/Less” (2015)

Baddie: Cancer! Lesson: People are friends, not science experiments. Remember that time I said I was going to review shark movies all month?

Baddie – Teenagers not sleeping enough, probably. Lesson – This is the perfect 80s Horror. This month is sort of unofficially nicknamed Shameful September (I like theme months), where I’ll be watching classic horror films I, sigh, have not seen. Nightmare On Elm Street is one of them, despite going to college about twenty minutes…
