Con-crowd-510

The Action Flick Chick and some friends got to discussing Comic-Con dos and don’ts. This wasn’t the first time the topic has come up and won’t be the last. A couple of her blogger gal pals have posted some great guides. For example, Nerdy Bird Jill Pantozzi (@TheNerdyBird) had responded to the LA Times’ “Girls’ Guide [...]

Llama Mama | February 26, 2010

After @JLoSH (of http://www.juniorleagueofsuperheroes.com, a webseries worth watching) told our heroine on twitter that “Child’s Play gave me mucho nightmares as a child,” the Action Flick Chick then asked everyone about that.
@actionchick: A topic to sleep on: What movie gave you childhood nightmares?
Recurring theme #3 – scary clowns: Peewee’s Big Adventure, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Poltergeist, and Stephen [...]

Twitter Talk with Tweets from a Beauty Who Married a Brady: Which Celebs to Follow?

Llama Mama | December 9, 2009

Adrianne Curry on WoW

“How the hell do you have so many followers?”
On twitter as @actionchick, Action Flick Chick Katrina frequently gets asked that question in one form or another. It’s a hard one to answer, especially since the true underlying question for many who ask it is “How can I get a huge following?”
Well, it’s too late for you [...]

Action Heroine versus Horror Heroine – What’s the Diff?

Action Flick Chick | November 28, 2009

Notice that it’s horror heroine and not horror chick. A film can have a sorority’s worth of horror chicks, but only one horror chick gets to be the Final Girl, that heroine who outlasts all the rest.
Our action heroine Action Flick Chick under her codename @actionchick raised the issue in twitter.

Planet Terror (2007): Good Barbecue!

Action Flick Chick | November 12, 2009

planet_terror_box_art_2d

It’s often said that go-go dancers are like flowers, so if you’re gonna put someone named Rose McGowan in a movie about zombies, why not make her a go-go dancer, too?

Planet Terror is about a zombie outbreak caused by a release of some nasty chemicals. Penned by Robert “Spy Kids” Rodriguez, Planet Terror came out [...]

Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead (2009) – With Wrong Turn 4 Bonus Plot

Action Flick Chick | October 31, 2009

Janet_WT3

Boobs within 4 minutes, action within 4 minutes, lots of blood and guts, and all sorts of diabolical traps…now this is my kind of movie! Wrong Turn 3 has all of the aforementioned items plus creative kills, an insane plot, mediocre acting, and a complete lack of common sense amongst all of the characters…what could be more fun?

Total Recall (1990)

I just witnessed possibly the greatest tragedy I have seen in any motion picture: The woman with the three boobs was shot…and killed. Noooooooooooooooooo! I can’t believe it. Ohh, the humanity! Let’s all just take a moment of silence to remember our great friend… Triple Nipple Girl.

Gamer (2009) Anyone Want Some Tea!

Action Flick Chick | September 17, 2009

giant-cupcake

Gamer: It can induce seizures within one minute flat! That should be the real tag line for the new action/thriller movie, Gamer, because the friggin’ movie was all over the place. However, we get to see the greatest moment of the movie within the first few minutes: a real life tea bagging! Tea bagging is all over the video game world, if you’ve ever played any game with guns in it, you’ve probably tea bagged someone/been tea bagged yourself. It was only a matter of time before we saw someone get tea bagged in a movie, and I, for one, am glad to see it.

Sorority Row (2009) Spoiler Free/Galore

Action Flick Chick | September 14, 2009

sorority-row-remake-girls2

When someone says, “I just got tested, it’s cool,” you might want to rethink the activities you are about to engage in. However, when you’re in a sorority house on Sorority Row, nothing matters and all logical thinking goes out the bloody window. So take that into consideration, and if you throw logic out the window before you watch Sorority Row, it will turn out to be a really good movie.

Rob Zombie’s Halloween II 2009 (Spoilers Galore!)

Wow! You know what I think? I think it would really suck to be a Myers. It just seems like you don’t stand a chance. You are either killed really young by your younger brother/child, or stalked for years and go crazy from seeing the horrifying murders that your brother intended to be you.
