Cinema Fearité Presents ‘Prey’ – An Odd Little Alien Invasion Movie
An alien invasion movie can come in any shape or size. Sometimes, the aliens are friendly, like in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial or Arrival. Sometimes, they’re horrifying, as in Xtro or The Dark.

As a rock and roll comedy, Shock Treatment is an incredible film. When its connection to The Rocky Horror Picture Show is considered, it’s a wonder that the movie is not a household word.
Cinema Fearité Presents ‘Piranha’ – Roger Corman’s Homage To ‘Jaws’
In 1975, the movie world was changed by Steven Spielberg’s summer blockbuster Jaws. And almost immediately, schlock filmmakers started imitating it, hoping some of the success would rub off.

Although that movie may be the best example of a modern horror movie going mainstream for the Academy Awards, it certainly isn’t the only one, and we’re not talking about The Shape of Water. Four short years before The Silence of the Lambs brought home the Big Five, Fatal Attraction earned a slew of Oscar nominations of its own.
