The movie begins with Jake Huard (Franco) waking up after being knocked down during a boxing match. After returning to his feet and beating his opponent, he returns to the home he shares with his distant father (Goodman), who is also his employer at a naval shipyard, building vessels for the Navy. It is revealed that his mother has died an unspecified time ago, and his father doubts his ability to be anything.

The next day, Jake is visited by LCDR Burton (Wahlberg), who reveals that his application to the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland has been recently accepted. At a bar where Huard and his friends are celebrating Huard’s acceptance, his friends introduce him to a young woman named Ali (Brewster), who they claim is a prostitute hired as a going-away present for Jake. Huard’s attempts to seduce Ali are unsuccessful, and his farewell with his father leaves him frustrated.

On his first day at the Academy, Huard discovers that one of his instructors is Ali, a Midshipman 2nd Class (an upperclassman). She and her fellow instructor, Whitaker, begin hazing Huard’s class of plebes, and it is revealed that Jake in particular is behind academically. Their company commanding officer, Midshipman Lieutenant (1st Class) Cole (Gibson), is revealed to be an enlisted Marine, and announces his intent to run out any midshipman he feels will not become a worthy officer. Jake’s roommates include Nance (Shannon) (nicknamed Twins because he is too overweight to complete the obstacle course), Loo (Fan), and Estrada (Calderon), who is being singled out by Whitaker because of his race….More>>

Saw 3D

In a flashback sequence following the first Saw film, Dr. Lawrence Gordon (Cary Elwes) crawls from the bathroom to find help. Along the way, he reaches a hot pipe and uses it to cauterize the wound on his leg. The next scene cuts to a crowd of people gathering around a storefront window in an urban shopping area where they watch two men, Ryan (Jon Cor) and Brad (Sebastian Pigott), tied to a worktable. There is a buzz saw in front of them, and their mutual lover, Dina (Anne Lee Greene), is suspended above. They decide to save themselves and allow her to lower onto the buzz saw, killing her.

After witnessing Mark Hoffman (Costas Mandylor) surviving the end of Saw VI, Jill Tuck (Betsy Russell) goes to Matt Gibson (Chad Donella) of Police internal affairs and exposes Hoffman in exchange for police protection and immunity. Hoffman, meanwhile, continues his work, killing four racist skinheads in a trap in an abandoned junkyard’s garage and abducting Bobby Dagen (Sean Patrick Flanery), a self-help guru who achieved fame and fortune by falsely claiming to have survived a Jigsaw trap. As the police investigate the junkyard and search for Dagen, Hoffman sends Gibson videos offering to stop the games if they turn Jill over to him…..More>>

Child's Play

Leave a comment

While being chased by Detective Mike Norris (Chris Sarandon), Charles Lee Ray, a serial killer known as “The Lakeshore Strangler” (Brad Dourif), is shot and mortally wounded. Before dying, Charles takes cover inside a toy store, finding boxes of talking “Good Guy” dolls and then uses a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into one of the dolls. The store is then struck by lightning and it burns to the ground.

Later that morning, 6-year-old Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent) tells his widowed mother Karen Barclay (Catherine Hicks) that he wants a Good Guy doll for his birthday. Unable to afford the full price, Karen buys a stolen doll from a street peddler: the same doll Charles Lee Ray transferred his soul into…..More>>

Child's Play 2

Leave a comment

Two years after the events of Child’s Play, Andy Barclay (now eight years old) is placed in a foster home after his mother Karen is taken to undergo psychiatric evaluation for supporting her son’s story about a killer doll. Meanwhile, Detective Mike Norris has been threatened into dismissal from the police department. Bad publicity about Play Pals, Inc. (the company behind the “Good Guy” toy line) is all over the newspapers regarding Chucky. The company has the original doll reconstructed for analysis, and a worker is electrocuted during this process. Chucky is brought back to life due to the accident and manages to find Andy at his foster home.

Chucky disposes of the foster home’s Tommy doll (that completely resembles him) and takes its place, then sneaks into Andy’s bedroom and ties him up in order to begin transferring his soul into his body. Before he can complete the spell, Andy’s foster sister Kyle suddenly sneaks through his bedroom window. Confused, Kyle tries to help untie Andy, but their foster parents Phil and Joanne unexpectedly arrive and accuse her of tying Andy up, despite his pleas that the doll is alive….More>>

Child's Play 3: Look Who's Stalking

Leave a comment

Eight years after the events in Child’s Play 2 the Play Pals Inc. toy factory is dusted, swept, and reopened for business. The workers create a new Good Guy doll from Chucky’s (voiced by Brad Dourif) plastic remains; however, serial killer Charles Lee Ray’s soul still inhabits the remains and Chucky is revived. Play Pals Inc. re-releases its old “Good Guy” toy line, believing that their bad publicity should have abated after so many years. CEO Chris Sullivan takes Chucky into his office, where Chucky tortures him to death with dangerous toys before using a computer in the room to relocate Andy Barclay.

Andy (Justin Whalin) is now 16 years old, and has been sent to military school, having failed to cope in several foster homes. Colonel Cochran (Dakin Matthews), head of the military school, begrudgingly agrees to let Andy in, but advises him to grow up and forget the killer doll fantasies. What happened to Andy’s foster sister Kyle is never explained….More>>

Bride of Chucky

Leave a comment

One month after the events of Child’s Play 3, Tiffany Ray (Jennifer Tilly), a former lover and accomplice of serial killer Charles Lee Ray (voice of Brad Dourif), acquires Chucky’s remains after bribing and later murdering a police officer who removed the dismembered “Good Guy” doll parts from an evidence locker. Believing Ray’s soul to be inhabiting the doll, Tiffany crudely stitches Chucky back together and reenacts the voodoo ritual which instilled Ray inside the doll a decade ago. Though her chants initially fail to produce results, Chucky unexpectedly springs to life and smothers Tiffany’s goth admirer, Damien (Alexis Arquette), as Tiffany looks on with excitement. while Tiffany is watching TV while taking a bath, Chucky, after being locked in a playpen by Tiffany, gets out and kills her by pushing the TV into the bath, then using the same voodoo spell, transfers Tiffany’s soul into a female doll. Chucky, who is still intent on becoming human again, lays out a plan to retrieve the body-switching amulet (The Heart of Damballa) Ray was wearing on the night he was killed…More>>

Seed of Chucky

Leave a comment

The film is set sixteen years after the events of Child’s Play, fourteen years after the events of Child’s Play 2, and six years after the events of both Child’s Play 3 and Bride of Chucky.

The movie opens with Glen, the apparent “son” of Chucky and Tiffany; born at the expense of his estranged mother Tiffany dying immediately after he was born (this is shown at the end of “Bride of Chucky“) and living a life of embarrassment and abuse as a ventriloquist’s dummy who shortly said he found him long ago in the cemetery of where Glen’s mother died. Desperate to know his parents (after seeing behind the scenes footage of the Child’s Play movie-within-a-movie on TV), Glen escapes and tracks them down to Hollywood.

Upon tracking down his parents, who are now dummies in one of Jennifer Tilly‘s films, Glen uses a voodoo amulet (the “Heart of Damballa” from the previous film) to bring them back to life. Shortly afterward, when Chucky finds out that Glen is his child, he faints while Tiffany hugs her son. Shortly after this, Tiffany and Chucky have a dispute over whether Glen is a girl or a boy. Chucky decides to label him as a boy regardless. Tiffany disagrees, labels him as a girl, and calls him “Glenda”. This may be a throwback to the Ed Wood so bad it’s good movie “Glen or Glenda?“….More>>

Porky's

Leave a comment

The main plot concerns the efforts of a group of Florida high school students in 1954 intent on losing their virginity. The group consists of bad boy Tommy Turner, socially-awkward Edward “Pee Wee” Morris, star athlete Anthony “Meat” Tuperello, proud redneck Mickey Jarvis, Billy McCarthy (who acts as the voice of reason for the group), and bigot Tim Cavanaugh. They (minus Billy) travel to Porky’s bar located outside of town on the basis of a rumor that if one pays the owner Porky, one can hire a prostitute. Initially reluctant, Porky takes the kids’ money and promises them “a night to remember” and then humiliates them by dumping them in the swamp. When the group seeks revenge, the sheriff, who turns out to be Porky’s brother, arrives to drive them away, but not before Porky’s minions extort the rest of their money and cause them more embarrassment. After this incident, the group becomes hellbent on exacting revenge on Porky and his brother, eventually succeeding in sinking his strip club in the swamp. After the group makes it across the county line (where Porky’s brother is out of jurisdiction), they meet Porky and his brother with one of the local police officers, who happens to be Mickey’s brother, and the high school band. After Mickey’s brother damages Porky’s car, he says that none of the previous events will be spoken to the authorities. Because the boys were not allowed in Porky’s strip club in the first place, Porky and his brother have no choice but to agree. The film ends with the group getting their revenge and Pee Wee finally losing his virginity.

Porky's II: The Next Day

Leave a comment

The gang from Angel Beach High School are at it again. After they dealt with Porky, they are ready for a new challenge: The High School Drama Club is getting ready to stage a Shakespeare festival. Unfortunately, a religious leader named Reverend Bubba Flavel wants to halt the production because he and his group “The Righteous Flock” think that Shakespeare is indecent. The gang also has to deal with a double crossing politician, and the Ku Klux Klan, who object to a redskin (Runningfox’s Seminole character) playing Romeo. The sex crazed teens really know how to get even, and play pranks on each other and their foes.

Porky's Revenge!

The sex-crazed teenagers of Angel Beach High School are back for the third and final time. They continue to be harassed by the gym teacher, Beulah Balbricker, who catches them watching porn in the school library. During the semi-final basketball game, the cheerleaders promise them an orgy if they win. The boys are highly motivated at this point and win the game. After the game, the boys are led to one of the girls homes, and everyone strips down to their underwear and jumps in a swimming pool. In the pool, the girls throw their underwear out of the pool. The guys do likewise, and swim toward the girls. Soon, but too late, they realize the girls are clothed after all and wind up parading nude before the clothed girls and a movie camera. A few minutes later, the parents return home and the boys are forced to flee….More>>
