Bloody Muscle Bodybuilder in Hell is one wild ride through independent trash cinema. It is ugly and brutal, plunging sharpened knives deep into the necks of its audience from the very beginning and begging us to look away. We don’t, though. Gorehounds never do, which is why watching the main ...

As if we needed something else to confirm Viola Davis’ place in the shrine of truly remarkable actresses, along comes The Woman King, an elaborately choreographed historical epic in which she towers over nearly every aspect of the film’s production ...

Since Marvel, DC, Godzilla, Conjuring, Spider-Man, and others have their own cinematic universes these days, it should be no surprise that even the Screenlife genre of filmmaking is now gaining its own universe of sorts. It’s where all of a film’s events are shown on the screen of a computer ...

“Orson Welles had a perception of everything in the film, including the music. He knew. He truly understood film scoring. …Touch of Evil was one of the best things I’ve ever done.” - Henry Mancini And it shows, too. From Mancini’s score to ...

Rude and crude, The Necro Files have been opened! Ready to do the Devil’s work? Wild Eye Releasing and Visual Vengeance are as The Necro Files, a satanic shot on video nudie-fest from 1997, gets its blu-ray debut. I mean, sure, these films are horrible looking and full of horrible content, but what blu-ray do you know rewards viewers with their very own condom? That’s right. This is probably the only one with that surprise inside ...

When a film, not particularly well-liked at the time by critics, goes on to earn back four times its budget, there had to be something to it. Road House is the go-to for many Gen-Xers (myself included) for a bit of dumb fun. It’s ridiculous, set-your-brain-to-neutral, action fare; the kind made for (and seemingly ...

Writer/director Neil Marshall doesn’t always get the respect he so admirably deserves. It seems that Hollywood has put all their eggs in Neill Blomkamp’s basket. Marshall, who has yet to fail my expectations, continues to deliver behind the scenes in Game of Thrones but to truly appreciate ...

There is nothing more alluring to me for a night at the movies than a good old-fashioned man versus beast tale. My favourite film has always been Spielberg’s Jaws and forever will be. Even the most ill-advised and derivative of this sub-genre usually end up an easy watch for me. So long ...

Those troubled by the increasingly predominant role technology has begun to play in the rearing of today’s children should probably stay far, far away from M3GAN. On the other hand, those who want a front row seat to witness how those perceived dangers might actually play themselves ...

Famed writer/director/producer Roger Corman is not one to let a trend pass without notice and monetary capitalization. Still looking to mine the Star Wars vein of golden riches and fortune and glory in 2980, he mounted his most expensive production and put together a creative team (which included ...

Back in the early nineties, Kevin Costner was at the zenith of his cinematic reach. With the likes of Bull Durham, The Untouchables and his Oscar-winning Dances with Wolves under his belt already, the man could (and did) write his own ticket. In these happy times, a star with that pedigree ...

We’re in the money! We’re in the money! Well, not everyone, but that doesn’t mean the star-studded comic song-and-dance spectacle of following the exploits of chorus girls Polly, Carol, and Trixie around New York City while they scratch about trying to land parts in the next BIG Broadway ...

The light through the darkness remains thanks to the art and fantasy of Heavy Metal. If you think Elon Musk’s idea to put a car in space was original, you better sit yourself down and watch the crazy opening of this animated gem. It’s 1981 all over again, thanks to remastering and restoration here ...
