Cornered Movie Review

This is a review of the movie Cornered. Steve Guttenberg was a mainstay of movies in the  1980s. Constantly surfacing, he managed to move from comedies and into drama. Imagine my surprise when he showed up in a horror movie! Cornered tells the story of a convenience store owner, employees and customers as they deal with a serial killer. The rub is the killer is  targeting convenience stores. Through a weekly poker game, the horror movie is set in motion with an expected, but an surprising elemental ending.

Hampton Inn Peoria, IL Winners Way Review

This is a review of the Hampton Inn located on Winners Way in Peoria, IL.

We spent time last fall in Peoria, IL and enjoyed ourselves. Our overnight was spent at the Hampton Inn on Winners Way, which as you might guess, is located next door to a casino.

I am unsure the eras of building Hampton Inns, but this one is probably 10 years old or so. You can always tell a Hampton Inn of the era due to the following:

  1. Pool is at the end.
  2. Breakfast area is in lobby without a wall or anything.

Creature Movie Review

This is a review of the movie Creature.

Creature is a horror film that starts out with a bang and ends with a fizzle. The ride along the way is engaging and fun, though.

The Layout

A group of young adults led by an ex-Navy Seal decide to spend some time in the Louisiana back country. On the way there they hear a tale of Lockjaw from a convenience store owner. Lockjaw is a half man half alligator.

The movie is a horror story with some action thrown in, as one by one the people are killed by Lockjaw. Toss in some local incest and inbreeding and you got a complete movie.
