It’s time to go back. Clocking in at a breezy 109 minutes, The Wizard of Oz is one of the finest examples of fantasy escapism that we have in film history. Let that soak in for a minute. Perhaps things would have been different had WWII not been right around the corner, but fact is fact ...
Imagine if the original Alien had been shot for 3-D? That chest-busting scene would have really leaped right off of the screen. One has to think that producer and director Charles Band, in his pre-Full Moon days, had been thinking about that ...
It’s the eyes, man! It’s all about the eyes. Béla Lugosi (and those expressive eyebrows of his) definitely created a lot of memorable characters for cinema. He was always chewing the scenery and making each scene his ow; however, in The Human Monster (also known as The Dark Eyes of London) he ...
To this day, there remains something insanely special about director Brian De Palma’s Carrie. It is based on the once-discarded novel by Stephen King, but was painstakingly adapted for the screen by Lawrence D. Cohen. Cohen got everything about King’s first novel right ...
A single tear is all it takes for this dude to land all the ladies. His name is Cry-Baby and this is his story . . . with guitars! The motorcycles! The music! The Squares! The Drapes! And all the raging hormones! It’s 1954 again in Roger Waters’ classic teenage musical, Cry-Baby. It has been ...
Being the ninth and final film in Hammer’s Dracula series, The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires definitely holds a special place in horror history. That’s not the limit of its legacy, though. Not by a longshot ...
"I got my beer, I got my sex partner, what else do I need?” Blood Lake continues to exist because we all want to be like Little Tony. Fight me if you disagree. Having a camcorder doesn’t necessarily make you a horror film director. The same can be said ...
Before Resident Evil, there was Warning Sign. Complete with an impressive synth score from Craig Safan, this thriller absolutely rocks and serves as the precursor to what would come in a lot of biohazard-themed flicks a decade AFTER its initial release ...
“God, I love the desert!” This is what is loudly proclaimed by the Sunday school teacher who is sitting squarely at the center of Murderlust. Steve Belmont (Eli Rich) is a pathetic human being. As a Sunday school teacher, he uses his post to ensnare pretty young women ...
When I was a young fool, my go-to movie was Forest Gump. I think I saw that damn film at least NINE times in the theater. I was graduating high school and leaving for college and that film just resonated with me. I was also lovesick and a complete idiot about it. This review ...
You ever wish there was more of you to go around? Feel completely wiped out at the end of the day? Willing to only stuff your face with one slice of pizza too many when you get home? If so, Sony and Columbia Pictures have the comedy for you ...
A baboon’s heart, hockey, and one hell of a sweet story. That’s what you STILL get with Untamed Heart, now making its blu-ray debut Caroline (Marisa Tomei) has too good of a heart. So say her friends. And, judging by how happy she is to ...
Mesmerizing pulp fiction. There simply is no other way to describe the powerful impact of Detour, a low budget gem from Poverty Row Pictures. Truthfully, the movie shouldn’t work as well at it does ...
Val Lewton, making 1940s B-flicks look nothing like other horror films of the 1940s, is a certifiable genius of the cinema. His ability to plunge audiences straight into nightmares is uncanny. Madness and death, there’s our recurring fear factor in ...
Still considered today to be one of Harold Lloyd’s finest films, The Kid Brother makes its debut on blu-ray thanks to the the Criterion Collection. It is, of course, one of Lloyd’s sweetest and funniest films, with more sight gags than his others, in which Lloyd plays Harold Hickory ...
