(John Delia) 10/6/2012 6:14 PM EDT With Halloween quickly approaching horror flicks take center stage at the movie theater. But, most fright films this time of the year are not for kids. Disney's Frankenweenie however pulls out all the stops and bolts into movie houses around the nation providing some family fun and its rated PG for most everyone. Direct from ... Read More |
(John Delia) 10/5/2012 10:10 AM EDT If you are looking for a fun film with a lot of liveliness, then look to Pitch Perfect for your entertainment this weekend. It's not just a comedy, but a creative musical that aims at a younger crowd yet reaches all adult levels with snappy wit, involving storyline and high energy performances. The story centers on Beca (Anna Kendrick) a... Read More |
 
(Paul Kates) 10/5/2012 9:09 AM EDT Liam Neeson first appeared as former CIA operative Bryan Mills in 2008's Taken, in which Mills's daughter was kidnapped by an Albanian sex-trafficking gang while holidaying in Paris. Naturally enough, the overprotective father went to Europe, kicked butt, and rescued his only child. Now 2012 brings the imaginatively titledTaken 2 to our s... Read More |
 
(John Delia) 10/5/2012 9:08 AM EDT Whether you are a horror fan or just like a mystery with a lot of gruesome characters American Horror Story: The Complete First Season has been released on Blu-ray and DVD and it's a creepy feast. Unlike most other TV series, the show completes the story at the end of the season so it's all in 12 episodes in a 3-disc set. Nomina... Read More |
(John Delia) 10/3/2012 4:48 PM EDT Films about teens are scarce in 2012 so other than Hunger Games that came out in March the pickings have been thin for that genre. With the teen movie Perks of Being a Wallflower opening in a very slow month mostly devoted to horror flicks, hopefully it won't be overlooked as its pretty darn good. Able to touch a finger to the pulse of what m... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 10/3/2012 3:25 PM EDT In today's economy, it's tough for seniors to survive, let alone thrive with what little funds they receive from their retirement.

In Fox Searchlight&#... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 10/1/2012 9:05 AM EDT On October 2nd 2012 Disney will finally release "Cinderella" on Blu-ray. Yes, Cinderella's night at the ball will now be seen in the clarity it deserves.

(Roger Longenbach) 9/29/2012 10:22 PM EDT If there is one genre that Hollywood has tried over and over again, with some success and countless failures, it is the comic-book hero. But unlike others, The Avengers is not just about one comic-book hero, but several. Because of this, the movie is also unlike the others. This probably explains its' wild success, leading it ...

(Sean Ferguson) 9/29/2012 9:36 PM EDT A father's love for his daughter knows no bounds, even if you're Dracula. Parents will tell you that wanting to protect their children from the outside world never truly goes away, but what happens when your Immortal? In "Hotel Transylvania", Dracula (Adam Sandler) wants to protect his little girl Mavis (Selena Gomez) from the horror... Read More |
(Chris Rebholz) 9/28/2012 8:46 AM EDT With Clive Barker's last few films falling on deaf ears and empty seats, writer/director Victor Salva ("Rite of Passage," "Powder," Clownhouse") stepped up to attempt to fill the gap.
