Cinemassacre's Monster Madness

Monster Maddness is something I look forward to every October. It perfectly captures that feeling of Halloween and the fall season. James Rolfe is a talented filmmaker who has a real appreciation for film. In this series, he covers horror movies from every era since the dawn of cinema. If you like horror, definitely check it out.

Excellent show from the creator of Angry Video Game Nerd. I look forward to this every October.

Highly recommend this series to anyone who enjoys reviews of horror flicks from the old to the new. James is obviously incredibly passionate about the genre, as well as incredibly knowledgeable. I loved this series during its heyday and I'm really looking forward to diving in once again!

UPDATE: Terribly sorry that James felt he'd done all he could with this series and that it had run its course, but it was a hell of a great show, and long live Monster Madness!! UPDATE UPDATE!! Oct 2019: So I was very delighted to find that it came back this year after a two year hiatus and it's just always really great to be watching these and hearing James talk about classic and more weird dark comedies and horror movies at this time of the year because the guy is just so effortlessly good at it and a genuine love of film is clearly in his blood and I hope this great of a series will carry on for a long time to come! So initially I really grew to love this series and I enjoyed it every year. All the fun of the Angry Nerd character aside, I find James Rolfe's love for horror flicks as genuine and inspiring as his love of video games. Rolfe has an excellent voice and casual attitude for this kind of narrating work and is very easy and fun to listen to, and he pitches his thoughts and synopsis on each film in an enjoyable and frequently funny way. This show has gone through a few interesting phases, there was the Universal Monsters and Godzilla ones, the 80-a-thon, which did not actually have a video for every day of October but that was fine when these guys had other better stuff in the works. I love season 8, which was really well balanced and made me want to seek out and watch Haxan, which turned out to be the only silent movie that I've loved to date. And now in the last series he and Mike Matei have done episodes where they've discussed a movie in person, which I didn't care for as it doesn't work the same without the clips and everything, and they also did two episodes that weren't about movies at all but were about what makes horror what it is, and what the best way to celebrate Halloween is for them, and I can't complain, it's all in the spirit of horror and there's always more films... And regardless to me, Cinemassacre's Monster Madness is a hugely fun annual series to watch that is informative and entertaining and I'd definitely recommend checking it out if you're a horror movie fan. A s##t-ton of ass-balls it most certainly is not!! Thank you for all the great fun content over the years James. :) 🎃

James Rolfe AKA AVGN brings to light every October a tribute to genres like horror, psycho logical and suspenseful films. By giving a light review without spoiling the plot and ending and even giving facts about the film and actors.

I love how open he is giving us his hilarious opinion on some of the films that really impacted his life even influencing his work, as well as some of us. I look forward every year to watching his list of horror movies. This year he is going through the ages of horror which starts off with the top 10 for each decade starting with the 1930s and continues on to the 21st century. My first memory as a child was watching Night of the Creeps on television back in the 80s. This movie influenced my life in ways I never thought were possible. As a horror fan I would highly recommend watching this series of videos because you will probably find something new with each episode.
