This is a movie about ghosts. It’s a movie about not saving lives. It’s also a beautiful film about the preservation of life . . . even when it becomes a question of exactly whose life you are saving. It is also an underrated and often neglected film which just happens to be directed by the one and only Martin ...

Lee Isaac Chung's Twisters, the semi-sequel to 1996’s flying-cow spectacle, Twister, is an adrenaline-pumping, big-screen thrill ride that combines the beauty of meteorological science with the chaos of nature. But at its core, Twisters is a story about people. In fact, Chung has succeeded ...

John Locke from Lost, Admiral Pressman from Star Trek, the benevolent pacifist Alex McSween from Young Guns. All fascinating characters, all uniquely different and all masterfully rendered real through the gifts of Terry O’Quinn. Before all these characters became known to me, the actor—apparently ...

“You underestimate the power of faith.” With 2021’s Dune, Denis Villeneuve set a very high bar for himself. Delivering the perfect amount of exposition that managed to feel epic yet extremely personal but never overwhelming, the first installment that introduced audiences ...

It seems that Russel Crowe is leaning into the whole satanic menace subgenre of horror films of late. Last year, the actor was hamming it up with a fake italian accent in the ridiculous (but fun!!!) The Pope’s Exorcism and now, while it’s much more of a sober affair (until it isn’t), he stars ...

When Bad Boys, the first installment of the Bad Boys franchise first hit theaters back in 1995, the popularity of the buddy-cop genre was raging with such hits as Die Hard With a Vengeance, Point Break, and The Last Boy Scout tearing up the box office. Even so, Will Smith and ...

Oh, there is nothing that can bring a smile to my face quicker than a Stephen King story sent for review. Whether his books or film/TV adaptations, more often that not it means I’m going to enjoy myself. I am one of his ‘constant readers’ and have devoured most of his adaptations, whether assigned ...

“It doesn’t even feel like they’re trying to make a good movie.” —Gene Siskel 1996 The name Chris Farley always brings a smile to my face and sting in my heart. He was a bright, shining star, the life of the party, the consummate buffoon. I loved what he did. Graduating from SNL to movie star with fellow alum ...

The 90s was the decade where filmmakers embraced the burgeoning new tool of CGI, after films like Jurassic Park and Independence Day showed the scope of what was now possible to get on screen. It seems an everyday thing now, much like a toaster; one can achieve some damn realistic ...

Sequelitus has been an affliction that Hollywood has been marred with since the 80s, only now outshone by remake-itus. There are very few hit films since the 80s that haven’t been given, or forced, a follow-up. Sometimes this has born some tasty fruit indeed, even franchises of enjoyable new ...

Long before zombies were running in 24 Days Later, there was Demons, a cheesy, neon-lit spectacle of Video Nasty delight as coke-fueled punks find themselves outnumbered by a whole lot of quick-moving lime green spewing demons who are just aching for a damn good time as Billy Idol plays ...

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 ...
