(Nathan M Rose) 10/7/2015 1:20 PM EDT It seems, these days, zombies have replaced vampires as the most popular monster in pop culture. Zombie films, video games, and television shows have saturated our society so much it's easy to dismiss most of them. But then sometimes, just sometimes, a show like iZombie comes along and makes you revisit the entire genre.iZombie, which is based ... Read More |
 
(Bonnie Greenberg) 10/6/2015 3:18 PM EDT After being a fan of the original Magic Mike movie, I couldn't imagine where they would go with the story line for Magic Mike XXL. I'm a huge fan of Channing Tatum and I think he's an amazing actor (It doesn't hurt that he is totally gorgeous and a rockin' dancer). This movie did have a slow start for me, but got be...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 10/5/2015 11:14 AM EDT "Let's do the time warp again". The Rocky Horror Picture Show turns 40 this year, and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment is putting out a special edition Blu-ray to celebrate. Fans of Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry; Charlie's Angels), Brad (Barry Bostwick; Spin City) and Jane (Susan Sarandon; Bull Durham) will want to own this... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 10/5/2015 10:15 AM EDT I wanted to give Jane the Virgin points for originality, until I found out it was based on a Telanovela called Juana La Virgen. As interesting and unique as the premise is, in a world full of superheroes and zombies, I just couldn't help but find it to be a little dumb. Garnering critical acclaim and a Golden Globe for the show'... Read More |

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/29/2015 1:31 PM EDT Has the reign of Modern Family ended? Is the fairy tale over? For five years, the show has won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, but ,this year, they were upset by a different show. So the question remains… Has Modern Family lost its edge?As Season 7 is just beginning, I was able to take a look back at the fatef... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 9/29/2015 10:46 AM EDT Director Kevin Smith once said that the golden age of independent films has left us, and what we are left with is just big studio films created by a committee. Most days, I hold to these truths. However, once in a while, a film comes along that throws caution to the wind and surprises you.Cop Car, written and directed by Jon Watts (director of the ...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/28/2015 11:38 AM EDT I'm not sure why studios think it's a good idea to take every successful TV show and make it into a feature film. I understand they feel it will be an easy moneymaker with a "built in audience", but too many times they come into it with a half-cocked script that doesn't do the show justice. While Entourage: The Movi... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 9/28/2015 10:40 AM EDT This Cookie Doesn't Crumble!On January 7, 2015, Fox's smash hit, "Empire", burst onto the scene and, if your giving any credit for its success, just ask the woman in charge! She'll tell ya "Don't forget to thank your Cookie on this historic occasion." And a year later that occasion happens to be the release of Se... Read More |

The Green Arrow and his friends are back to battle the forces that would do harm to the city he is sworn to protect.Aside from the "villain" of week motif that usually plaques these type of shows, this seasons main "badie" is a...
