God bless the Japanese. Already ahead of the HD game in 1992, the Japanese film crew responsible for recording Bob Dylan’s 30 th Anniversary Concert Celebration used an early form of High-Definition t...

It’s hilarious to me to hear about people and critics turning their backs on a film they once heralded as a post-modern Bush-era classic. That’s exactly what is happening to Zach Braff’s Garden State...

Proving that he’s not going down without a fight, 61-year-old Liam Neeson returns for another early year no-brainer action flick (something like six films in as many years) in Non-Stop . This time he’...

Inspired by the post-apocalyptic weirdness of A Boy and His Dog , Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time: The Complete Third Season arrives on shelves just in time for Spring Break. This 26-episode release...

When it comes to documentaries, it is my belief that a non-fiction film must have a living and breathing environment that it adheres to. Muscle Shoals , a film by Greg 'Freddy' Camalier, is all about...

Exploding with the energy and styling of a 1930’s film noir flick, Russell Mulcahy’s The Shadow is an adaptation that should have been a lot bigger than it actually was upon its release in 1994. Criti...

Demonic Toys , written by David S. Goyer, is interesting in that your standard police procedural gets gutted by the horrors of children’s toys coming to life. Produced by Charles Band, the man respons...

For the past decade or so, Kevin S. Tenney’s Night of the Demons has been gaining momentum in the respect department. It launched 2 sequels and worthless reboot starring Edward Furlong but never seeme...

Paul W.S. Anderson knows how to make a surface-level video game. That’s about all I can give him credit for with his new disaster-themed offering, Pompeii . It has the single-minded energy and all the...

Grateful Dead. Janis Joplin. The Band. Buddy Guy. What do they all have in common? Well, other than being fantastic rock bands, artists, and live performers, they once upon a time in 1970 shared the s...

There’s a joke somewhere here about the 1980’s, effective entertainment, and Canada, I just can’t seem to put it together just yet. And even if someone else does it for me, Kevin Tenney’s fear-inducin...

“Give me your money or I’ll bust you up.” It is this line that forever alters the decision-making of an architect driven to murder. Morbidity goes mad in director Michael Winner’s Death Wish , a reven...

“Because I use my right hand, should I never use my left? This is the question Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde asks viewers and then, with nihilistic precision, explores with dusky shadows and fantastic effec...
