Freaky

How often do you see on the internet a film categorized as Horror/Comedy? It's a rare event indeed as one would not normally think of those two film genres together. Some might argue that the Scream franchise has some hints of comedy in them but not enough to label them as such. Interestingly, Happy Death Day is listed as Horror/Mystery... Read More

Come Away

So many childhood fairytales began in some semblance of reality. The basis for these stories were real people – both good and evil- and how other imaginations of those individuals evolved into beloved bedtime stories. But what if the character weren't just based on real people but real people became characters? This... Read More

In the last thirty years, advances in technology have enhanced the lives of most of the world's population in various ways.

Honest Thief

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 10/14/2020 10:23 AM EST
There is a saying that starts, "the love of a good woman…", which makes one wonder what is it that love could do. Could it heal a sick person? Could it turn someone evil? Or perhaps it could make someone change their illegal ways and want to become a better person. The thought is a noble one, but could it really happen?... Read More

The War With Grandpa

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 10/12/2020 6:08 PM EST
With the ever-growing population and advancements in medicine, people tend to live longer than they did in the past. This has created the need for more and more nursing homes and assisted living facilities, which seem to spring up constantly (especially where I live in South Florida). It is rarer these days to find multiple generations ... Read More

Tenet

(Nathan M Rose) 8/31/2020 7:52 AM EST
Director Christopher Nolan (Inception) has always wanted to make a James Bond-type spy thriller. We saw him toy with the idea in The Dark Knight Rises, and finally this year, a year riddled with issues, Tenet, Nolan's take on a James Bond story, comes to the theaters during a crazy time in the world.Tenet is a very hard film to define (which is why...

Irresistible

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 6/22/2020 5:02 PM EST
The political climate in the United States has been more volatile than I have ever seen before. Potential candidates are spending millions and millions of dollars to win any election they can and it honestly seems to be getting out of control as the country becomes more divided. But where does that leave the small-town folks who just wa... Read More

It seems that there have been a few really enjoyable horror films around these days. You know the ones, they keep you guessing and at one or two points you get that scare that lifts you out of your chair and makes your heart beat faster. True horror aficionados live for these exquisite ‘Levitation Scenes' and will stay through some pretty... Read More

7500

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 6/17/2020 8:22 AM EST
Long before September 11, 2001, there had been airplanes hijacked all over the world. However, after the events that occurred on that fateful day, the world, especially the United States, have become much more cautious about security screenings. Those planes that were taken over on United States soil were a wakeup call that we are livin... Read More
