Review of Scary Movie (1991)

By Rob Blackwelder (857) for SPLICEDWire (872) on 01 Jan 2000

Review of Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)

By Rob Blackwelder (857) for SPLICEDWire (872) on 01 Jan 2000

Review of Eye of the Beholder (1999)

By Rob Blackwelder (857) for SPLICEDWire (872) on 01 Jan 2000

Review of She's All That (1999)

Review of You've Got Mail (1998)

By Rob Blackwelder (857) for SPLICEDWire (872) on 01 Jan 2000

Review of Michael Collins (1996)

Review of Good Will Hunting (1997)
