Scream Queens 2.01 Recap: “Becoming a Doctor Was Never the Dream”

Josh Zyber — Thu, 22 Sep 2016 14:00:15 +0000

Fox’s imperfect but fun horror spoof ‘Scream Queens’ has returned for a second season of skewering genre conventions. Even though the setting and horror theme have changed, it turns out that the show is not exactly an anthology like creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s ‘American Horror Story’. Many of last season’s characters are back...

‘Mockingbird Lane’ Recap: “Don’t Turn the Neighbors into Your Blood Slaves”

Josh Zyber — Tue, 30 Oct 2012 15:00:30 +0000

In recent weeks, NBC bombarded its programming (well, ‘Grimm’ anyway, which is one of the few shows I watch on the network at the moment) with commercials for ‘Mockingbird Lane’. What the ads failed to clarify is whether this expensive reboot of ‘The Munsters’ was meant to be a new series, a made-for-TV movie, a...

The Netflix Stream: Week of January 15th, 2012

Dick Ward — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 17:00:24 +0000

There’s not a lot of movement in the Netflix stream this week. While we gain practically nothing, we also only lose two movies worth talking about. Wouldn’t it be nice if this happened more often? It’d sure give us less reason to babysit our queues! Leaving the Stream ‘Slacker’ (1/21): I watched ‘Slacker‘ and I...

“You guys wanna go see a dead body?” Can you believe that ‘Stand by Me’ officially turned 25-years-old this week? In the summer of 1986 (August 8th to be exact), Rob Reiner’s now-classic movie about the adventures of childhood graced movie theater screens across the country.

Now Playing: ‘Piranha 3D’ Kills

Drew Taylor — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 15:00:44 +0000

I’m not sure I saw this coming. ‘Piranha 3D’ – which has been rescheduled for release several times, handed over creatively at least once (Chuck Russell, director of ‘The Mask‘ and ‘Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors,’ was attached to direct initially), and not even screened for critics in advance of its release –...
