Josh Zyber — Mon, 14 Oct 2019 12:00:47 +0000

Who says Hollywood is out of ideas? A major studio made a buddy action flick about an Uber driver this year. Take that, skeptics! I can’t wait for the GrubHub movie. New Releases (Blu-ray) Stuber – Comedian Kumail Nanjiani attempted to cash in on all the good will he earned for The Big Sick by...

If Cabin Fever and Hostel filmmaker Eli Roth can make a PG-rated children’s movie, what other unlikely director will do so next? Let’s see if we can figure that out in this week’s Roundtable. Deirdre Crimmins As much as I’d love to hear Werner Herzog narrate a series of children’s fables, or as much as...

‘Charles Manson: The Final Words’ Review: More Rambling from a Loon

Philip Brown — Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:00:56 +0000

For better or worse, the 20th Century was an age of celebrity serial killers and no one did it like Charles Manson. His death a few months ago is now followed by one last documentary, featuring the final recorded interviews he ever gave. The gross monster was a pop icon, and it only makes sense...

’31’ Review: Rob Zombie’s Posse of Insane Clowns

Philip Brown — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 19:00:03 +0000

Say what you will about Rob Zombie, the guy clearly has a vision. Within a matter of seconds, it’s immediately clear that the divisive filmmaker put his stamp all over his latest filthy creation. You’re either on board for his talky, kitschy, 1970s hillbilly funhouse of horrors routine or things get very grating very quickly....

Weekend Movies: A Light in the Darkness

Luke Hickman — Fri, 02 Sep 2016 13:00:35 +0000

Welcome to September, the month that’s usually the dullest and dreariest on the movie calendar. This year, however, each week features at least one wide release with potential. Accompanying this weekend’s generic horror movie is a worthy drama that’s vying for Oscar attention. Coming just one week after the successful debut of ‘Don’t Breathe’ is...

We welcome you back from the long weekend with good news. The dog days of August are finally over. For better or worse, we have now officially entered… the shark days of September! New Releases I don’t generally go for the deliberately crappy “mockbusters” that production house The Asylum makes for the Syfy Channel, but...

Weekend Movies: Everyone Stands Out of Tom Cruise’s Way

Luke Hickman — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 15:00:10 +0000

As Sam Jackson once said, “Hold onto your butts.” Summer starts two weeks early this year. Today we get just one wide release – an expensive visual effects-filled star vehicle. Tom Cruise fans, be sure to soak it in, because this is his only movie of 2013. Up-and-coming director Joseph Kosinski follows up ‘Tron: Legacy‘...

Weekend Roundtable: Favorite Horror Movie

Josh Zyber — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 19:00:02 +0000

It’s Friday the 13th! That can leave us with only one possible topic for this week’s Roundtable: Favorite horror movies, of course. What we’ll do at Halloween, I’m not sure yet. We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. In the meantime, let’s get on with the creepshow. We’ve got a few guest bloggers...
