Anyone know of any plugins to display an excerpt and thumbnail image for every single post in a category?

I want to be able to mark a posts category as "Reviews" category...Then when user goes to "Reviews" Category page, I would it to automatically display every single post excerpt/thumbnail that fails under "reviews" category.

I do not want this in the widget area, but the main content area.

    doesn't a category page already do that?

    No..I believe there is a shortcode for excerpt, but not for a thumbnail..
    Some themes do have it built in though, just not mine.

    Ideally your theme should that code already in there....

    Here is a plugin i found which promise to do the same as you needed.
    WordPress › Gecka Terms Thumbnails « WordPress Plugins

    Note: I have not used this plugin as if i were to do i would have custom thumbnail
    code right into the category.php file of the theme... but if you are not sure
    about editing theme's php files, i think above plugin will get the job done.
