Cinema Fearité Presents ‘The Neanderthal Man’ – Fifties Sci-Fi Filmmaking At Its Badly Best

September 17, 2015 by James Jay Edwards

There’s something pleasantly simple about fifties science fiction horror films.  The early low-budget filmmakers would do things like stick a diving helmet on a gorilla suit (Robot Monster) or inject red dye into silicon jelly (The Blob), all in the name of creating memorable movie monsters.  This naiveté carried over into the mad scientist films […]

Cinema Fearité Presents ‘They Live’ – A Fond And Fighting Farewell To ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper

August 6, 2015 by James Jay Edwards

Last week, the world lost a bona-fide icon when professional wrestler/action star Roderick George Toombs, better known as “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, died of cardiac arrest at the age of 61.  Inside the ring, the fan-favorite Piper was primarily a villain in the WWF (later the WWE) and WCW, but on the screen, he was a […]

Cinema Fearité Presents A Science Fiction Classic – Run, Don’t Walk, From ‘The Blob’

July 16, 2015 by James Jay Edwards

Alien invasions are a pretty common theme of sci-fi/horror movies, and most of them have the same thing in common; they all seem to have similar looking aliens.  The typical movie alien is a bipedal humanoid with an oversized, egg-shaped head and big eyes.  Even the variations of the theme still don’t stray too far […]

Cinema Fearité Presents ‘eXistenZ’ – The Last Of David Cronenberg’s Cronenbergian Movies

February 12, 2015 by James Jay Edwards

David Cronenberg successfully transitioned from low-budget sci-fi horror to “legitimate” filmmaking with A History of Violence in 2005.  Although Cronenberg is now known as a big Hollywood moviemaker with reputable films like Eastern Promises and A Dangerous Method on his resume, horror fans will always remember the man for his early films, slimy science fiction […]
