Get ready, Arrow Video has released a 2K restoration of the 1984 classic, and I guarantee you will need plenty of Popcorn.Even in 1984, Stephen King's name had carte blanche with horror fans, by 1984 Carrie, The Shining, Cujo, The Dead Zone and Christine had been released, theatrically and despite ...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 10/3/2017 2:54 PM EDT It's been almost 30 years since A Fish Called Wanda was in movie theaters. Co-written, co-directed and starring John Cleese (Monty Python and the Holy Grail), the smart comedy was nominated for three Academy Awards with Kevin Kline (Dave) winning for Best Supporting Actor. Arrow Video decided the movie needed a rem... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 10/3/2017 9:00 AM EDT In 1990, James Ellroy (The Black Dahlia) wrote the third book in what became known as his L.A. Quartet, L.A. Confidential. Seven years later, a movie adaptation with the same name opened in theaters nationwide and garnered both critical acclaim and box office success. Nominated for nine academy award nominations, it ultimately lost... Read More |
 
(Leonard Buccellato) 10/2/2017 4:49 PM EDT Of all the horror movies released in 1989 (Nightmare on Elm Street 5, Halloween 5, Friday the 13th Part 8), 976-EVIL was probably the most disappointing. The pedigree of the longtime horror icon, Robert Englund, could not be disputed; he played Freddy Kruger after all and as of 1989 he did it five times. He starred in the Tobe Hooper... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 10/2/2017 3:35 PM EDT Nostalgically missing my Disney annual passes, my mind wanders back to one of my favorite rides singing Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me...but if you rode the ride as many times as I have, you would remember the first words you hear after setting sail. Dead Men Tell No Taaaaaaaaaales.It makes perfect sense that Disney would eventually use i... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/28/2017 10:20 AM EDT "I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now that'll be the end of ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/26/2017 4:51 PM EDT If you thought Seasons One and Two of the hit television show Empire where chock full, then get ready for Season Three. Available now on DVD, the eighteen episode season really packs a punch. From drama, murder, backstabbing and a new baby in the mix, the weekly nighttime soap opera seems to be hitting all the marks necessary ... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 9/25/2017 4:18 PM EDT ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Did you miss a season? Where were you? Even a Gallagher knows not to miss an episode! Get it together!Lip, after flying off the wagon, lost his college ride and went into rehab. Carl lost his Thug persona and is now has a girlfriend? V married Svetlana to keep her in the country and Kev is living the dream with 2 wives.Debs gave... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/25/2017 3:18 PM EDT A good run for a television show is about four to five seasons, so when you have one that is still going through Season Eight with renewals for another two seasons, you know it's a quality show. When that same show has been nominated every year for an Outstanding Comedy Series Emmy and has won the award five out of Eight years it speaks v... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 9/21/2017 4:09 PM EDT Tra La Laaaaaaaa!What's faster than a speeding Waistband...More powerful than boxer shorts...Able to leap tall buildings without getting a wedgie...He fights for Truth, Justice and all that is pre-shrunk and cottony...He is CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS!!Yes!
