Apparently Steven Soderbergh and filmmakers were so caught off guard (as were we) by the surprising success of 2012’s Magic Mike, that they failed to incorporate a natural segue that leads into a second chapter. But that’s never stopped Hollywood from plowing forth ...
Arming itself with a new interpretation for the popular saying “crash and burn”, Robot Jox continues to garner new fans with each passing year. This post-apocalyptic science fiction film featuring gigantic battling robots for territorial claim is the crème de la crème when it comes to influence ...
The scariest thing about The Gallows isn’t exactly because of what happens in it. It’s the realization (occurring afterwards) that, had a producer truly given two shits about the film and not just the money-grubbing hustle from the 23-and-under crowd this weekend, there once ...
Italian horror filmmakers have a long and fascinating history of taking a successful Hollywood idea and running with it until at least 10 films, all with different titles, have beaten its singular uniqueness into the ground. I can’t say that I blame them as boobs and gore will always ...
Arnold Schwarzenegger. Zombies. I know what you are thinking and, trust me, I went there as well when I first heard about Maggie. Schwarzenegger, sans shirt, throwing zombies off his hulked out frame while screaming something about running to a tank or a chopper or an underground ...
They say it’s not the size, it’s how you use it. Ant-Man, with its emphasis on all things microscopic, is proof of the truth in that saying. With its smallest hero, Marvel Studios has done the biggest thing. I’m just going to go ahead and make one thing clear: Ant-Man is ...

Directed by Mario Brava (Planet of Vampires), Black Sabbath remains an influential horror film. It is, after all, where Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Bill Ward, and Ozzy Osbourne (who all marveled at the fact that people actually paid money only to leave theaters that ...
If you’ve ever seen the 1990 post-apocalyptic Hardware, you probably recognized the sheer genius of its writer and director Richard Stanley. Additionally, if you’ve ever seen his follow-up, the supernatural horror film Dust Devil, then you are well aware that his unique vision ...
2012’s criminally underrated Jack Reacher featured the debut of the Christopher McQuarrie/Tom Cruise filmmaking team. Though that film was more of a laid back and gritty homage to the classic car-chase films of the ‘70s like Bullitt and The French Connection, McQuarrie and ...
I think it might just be time to pass Ash’s 12 gauge, double barrel Remington shotgun along to the next auteurs of horror. Yes, Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead is that impressive of a debut from an entirely new crew of makeup effects and wicked stunts. Hand over the Boomstick, ...
While uneven to a fault, Guy Ritchie’s spin on The Man From U.N.C.L.E., originally an American television series broadcast on NBC from 1964-1968, is easily the best thing Warner Bros has put out this summer. Maybe that’s not saying much this year but, once the ...
Fuck the great outdoors, man. I’m staying inside forever. Cub, the debut feature of Flemish filmmaker Jonas Govaerts, is as violent and as desperate as an overnight Cub Scout camping trip should NEVER get. Throw out any preconceptions you might have about boy scouts ...
Occurring in an alternative world in which magic was once fact in British history, this seven-part mini-series from the BBC recounts the story of how real magic made its glorious return into the world thanks to two competitive magicians in the early 1800s. Stylish and slick and operating ...
