I’m officially embargoing the DCEU–like the Sony movies, beyond Spider-Man in the MCU, that is. I might rent them but I won’t pay to see them in theaters–because in the case of the former I’m tired of the randomness of the movies they’re producing. And I’m not even a huge fan but when there’s talk […]
I’m surprised by the trailer for Joseph Kelly’s Clown Motel because it’s really, really good! It has a very Rob Zombie/House Of 1000 Corpses feel to it and I think it will be a really engaging feature.
This trailer brings me such joy. It’s so weird, so odd that it’s really, really good. That being said, I expect the movie to be something we’ve already seen before, with pokémon (should I capitalize the ‘p’ in ‘pokémon?’ I wouldn’t capitalize the ‘d’ in ‘dog’ unless it were either the name of a dog […]
I have to admit that I was initially a bit lukewarm about Jordan Peele’s reboot of The Twilight Zone. And that’s less a commentary of Peele’s skills as a writer (I assume he’ll be writing some of the episodes) more than Rod Serling was so iconic that I’m not at all comfortable with the idea […]
Anyone who’s seen Netflix’s The Haunting of Hill House–despite it being only loosely based upon Shirley Jackson’s novel–likely recognize it as brilliant. Which is why news of a sequel isn’t a surprise, though what is is that instead of tackling another version Jackson’s novel Flanagan is basing the sequel, The Haunting Of Bly Manor on […]
It’s been estimated that Marvel Studios’ Captain Marvel will bow somewhere in the ballpark $100 million. By way of comparison–because let’s be honest: You knew it was coming–DC Films’ Wonder Woman had a $105 million debut, so all signs point to Captain Marvel surpassing it. It’s worth mentioning that Captain Marvel is likely to be […]
The original Children Of The Corn (1984) is a pretty good movie, though the sequels got progressively bad, till we reached Children Of The Corn: Urban Harvest, which is absolutely terrible (See it! It’s fascinatingly bad!) This new version, directed by John Culager, looks decent, though as I mentioned in my review of the trailer, […]
I want to mock the people that got all into a tizzy over the lack of the Genie (Will Smith) in the last teaser trailer for their upcoming live-action Aladdin. Then again, I’m because I try not to be too blatant a hypocrite because while I may not particularly care about live action versions of […]
Shaft is back! Richard Roundtree introduced the character to moviegoers in 1971 in an eponymously titled movie directed by Gordon Parks and written by Ernest Tidyman and John D.F. Black. It spawned two sequels, Shaft’s Big Score in 1972 (also directed by Parks) and Shaft in Africa, this time directed by John Guillermin, in 1973. […]
When I heard that there was talk to reboot the Child’s Play movies I was a bit disappointed because, under the leadership of original writer Don Mancini, it’s been a really interesting series of movies. I think the original is pretty good, though the sequels don’t quite hit the target. That being said–particularly in the […]
