Everybody wants to be a hero, but villains have so much more fun. As Maleficent slinks back into theaters this weekend, let’s look back at some of our other favorite icons of evil from the movies.
Trick Review: Tale from a Hood
‘Tis the season for a deluge of horror films to his screens big and small. Don’t go writing them off as a whole. Plenty of the smaller ones, like the perfectly entertaining Trick, are good for some quick scares and popcorn levity....
Zombieland: Double Tap Review – Not Quite Tapped Out Yet
Ten years and sixteen days after the first Zombieland was released, we finally get to see what those crazy living humans have been up to all these years. Zombieland: Double Tap is a fun enough visit with familiar characters, thoug...
Maleficient: Mistress of Evil Review – Another Horny Fairy

The Walking Dead 10.02 Recap: “Oh, You’re Different&#
We didn’t see much of the villainous Whisperers in the The Walking Dead Season 10 premiere, save for a quick appearance at the end. The second episode takes the opposite approach and is (almost) entirely Whisperer focused.
From Silents to the Seventies: The Spoilers (1942)
A rootin’-tootin’ Western with plenty of spunk and swagger, The Spoilers caps its mix of action, humor, and romance with a signature barroom brawl. Marlene Dietrich, Randolph Scott, and John Wayne hit the jackpot in this gold rush...
