It goes without saying that Kevin Costner knows his way around a western - both in front of, and behind the camera. In fact, it’s difficult to propose any other living actor as closely connected to the genre. Dances With Wolves, Wyatt Earp, Open Range, and TV’s “Yellowstone,” just to ...
1990’s Misery is one of the finest book to screen King adaptations of all time, in my humble opinion. While this new dearth of King adaptions continues unabated with varying degrees of success or abject failure (*cough: The Stand), no one has (as yet) touched it, or even broached remaking it ...
Whether it’s Shelley Winters literally sponge-bathing her sons with motherly attention in Roger Corman’s Bloody Mama, or Jackie Weaver’s “Smurf” gleefully reminding her sons of all the bad things they’ve done in 2010’s Animal Kingdom, there’s just something ghoulishly alluring about ...
It is a dark night. The sky is pregnant with distant stars. A lone fire lights the desert canyon wall. Two Native Americans sit next to it. There is chanting. Soon, spirits are inhaled. If the opening to Poltergeist II: The Other Side throws you for a loop, know that you aren’t alone. It's trying something ...
Back in the eighties, DC Comics were facing a bit of a sales slump. In a move to reinvigorate their roster of well-trodden characters and titles, they engaged the services of writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Perez to create a paradigm shifting story that reset a lot of convoluted ...
“I have no tolerance for the unexplained.” — Detective Ralph Anderson Stephen King went down a detective-well several years go, releasing what has become known as the Bill Hodges Trilogy. And what a spectacularly entertaining well it proved to be! From the novel Mr. Mercedes onward ...
“Whoa. Free toy inside! Free toy inside!” Do I have your attention Cult of UHF? Because the blu-ray you want and need has just been released. "Weird Al" Yankovic, the reigning king of pop song parody, once took on Hollywood ...
“Can you still do the things with your eyes? You’re not crazy if you can still do the thing with your eyes.” I will NEVER forget the first time I saw Philip Kaufman’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I wouldn’t go outside in the rain for weeks afterwards thanks to the opening ...
Dude. Talk about a blast from the past. Duuuuude. Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is already a comedy classic from the latter part of the 1980s. Had it failed to connect with audiences, there would be no Beavis & Butthead. There would be no Wayne’s World. While we might be in an arguably better ...
In a world where the search for identity is as paramount as it is elusive, The Bikeriders emerges as a profound and timely exploration of this quest. Written and directed by Jeff Nichols (Mud, Take Shelter), the film provides an intimate and uncompromising look at the rise and fall of ...
Sasquatch Sunset is probably going to divide a lot of audiences. Myself? Well, I honestly don’t know what to make of it. This is a movie about sasquatches . . . which don’t exist. Or do they? That’s hardly the point as one Bigfoot family gets their story of survival told ...
Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino burst onto the scene in 2017 with his controversial, yet transcendent tale of first love, Call Me By Your Name, before following it up with his audacious remake of Dario Argento’s Suspiria and another story of forbidden love, Bones and All. Love ...
Round one! Operating like a mad take on a game of Mortal Kombat (and just as kinetic), Boy Kills World is a violent thrill ride as a man named “Boy” gets his revenge on the woman who murdered his family. Be warned as this action flick is not for the weak of heart. Nor is it for ...
The Ghostbusters are back! This time, though, they are being directed by Monster House’s Gil Kenan in a script he co-wrote with Jason Reitman, who directed the previous film in the franchise. The new Ghostbusters film feels like it belongs in the canon without being overly nostalgic ...
In a thrilling nod to the daredevils and nameless faces behind the scenes of moviemaking, The Fall Guy, directed by former stuntman himself David Leitch, is a totally ridiculous, yet always fun, action/comedy force that showcases the often overlooked world of stunt people. And it appropriately ...
