Dark Crimes

Allison Rose | Jul 30, 2018

Because there is little elaboration as to why things are the way they are in Dark Crimes, viewers are often left perplexed.

Overboard has been updated for these times with many Hispanic characters and the roles are reversed with the man being the homemaker.

The Equalizer

Allison Rose | Jul 26, 2018

The 2160p upscaled 4K video is excellent and certainly worth the price. Details are sharp and black tones are deep and true. The tanker explosion towards the end of the film is amazing compared to the regular Blu-ray.

The Quick and the Dead

Allison Rose | Jul 25, 2018

The Quick and the Dead is an interesting viewing experience if for no other reason than to see some good performances from a talented group of actors. The video and audio quality are excellent but can’t quite make up for the slow pace throughout.

Beyond Re-Animator

Leonard Buccellato | Jul 24, 2018

Dagon

Leonard Buccellato | Jul 24, 2018

All in all, Dagon is a fun, if flawed, release. However, if you are a Stuart Gordon/ Brian Yuzna fan, you should pick this up as it contains all the gore and camp one has come to expect of the pair. "Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!"

Isle of Dogs

Allison Rose | Jul 17, 2018

Anderson has a way of telling a story that is unique and intriguing. While there isn’t really much that is new about corruption and oppression (whether it be human or canine) Anderson’s tale keeps you interesting and engaged throughout.
