The Curator of Schlock #222: 13 Cameras
The Curator of Schlock #222 by Jeff Shuster 13 Cameras This is a gross one, folks. No Friday the 13th movies this Friday the 13th. I thought about going with the 2009 remake, but 2009 isn’t 2010 and I am committed to digging for schlock from this decade no matter what the cost. We could have had another Friday… Continue reading

The Curator of Schlock #216: Blair Witch
The Curator of Schlock #216 by Jeff Shuster Blair Witch That Blair Witch will tear you a new one. I don’t care if some of you didn’t think my Last Witch Hunter review was thorough enough.
