(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/14/2019 11:18 AM EDT Sylvester Stallone (Rocky) had a string of hit action movies in the 1970s and 1980s but those hits waned by the latter part of 1980s and he didn't make movies for a few years. Then in 1993, he starred in another action film called Cliffhanger. Based in the mountains of the Northwestern United States and filmed in the Italian Alps, the Renny H... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/9/2019 11:17 AM EDT It's been a while since we've been treated to a highly stylized film in the vain of film noir. During the 1990's we saw quite a bit of that genre but we seemed to have lost sight of it with all the action/superhero films of this millennia. Bad Times At the El Royale reminds us of why we loved these types of movies and what a beautifully... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 1/7/2019 11:23 PM EDT Hailing from the mind of Stephen King, Castle Rock is a town used in most of his novels, and now with the resurgence of Stephen King films, Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason took the opportunity - with the blessing of the master of horror himself- Stephen King, to create an Anthology Series entitled Castle Rock, with a cast of actors from some of ...

(Sean McCloskey) 1/2/2019 8:46 PM EDT Giving the go-ahead to a comedy with Kevin Hart (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) and Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip) set in a high school, being directed by the proven Malcolm D. Lee, had to have been one of the easiest movie studio decisions of the year. Neither actor ever really strays too far from their standard material and you generally kn... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/1/2019 10:03 PM EDT Richard Wershe Jr. (newcomer Richie Merritt) was born on July 1969 but never stood a chance at having a normal life. He lived in Detroit, Michigan with his father, who sold guns illegally, and his drug addict sister. At fourteen years old he became the youngest ever FBI informant but was abandoned when three years alter he was arrested ... Read More |
 
(Sean McCloskey) 12/28/2018 11:17 AM EDT Being a fan of the Predator series I was excited when a new one was announced and was released in theaters this fall. However, The Predator just didn't live up to my expectations. The problem is I can't exactly pinpoint exactly why. The movie wasn't bad - I was entertained but for some reason, I just didn't like it. The... Read More |
(Leonard Buccellato) 12/21/2018 4:28 PM EDT I have a Love-Hate relationship with Eli Roth.I can count the number of movies of his, which I have actually enjoyed, on 2 fingers. On the other hand, I think his enthusiasm and love for, and knowledge of, classic horror, and Genre movies, in general, is really admirable. Not to mention, he really seems like a genuinely good guy. But back to ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/18/2018 9:32 AM EDT Actor/ Director Paul Feig (Bridesmaids) is known for his quirky, offbeat comedies so it's no surprise that he decided to tackle Darcey Bell's dark comedy/thriller A Simple Favor. Outwardly, It seems like a perfect match as he infuses his personality into every thread of the movie but there is a seriousness that permeates which is some... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/17/2018 4:58 PM EDT In order to bring us the thriller Venom, Columbia Pictures, Sony, and Marvel worked in conjunction and from the previews, Venom looked like the typical alien type scary movie. I was very unsure of how it would set itself apart from all the other alien movies but Venom brings out the alien in everyone and is actually a carefully scripted cohe... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/17/2018 10:59 AM EDT Racial profiling is an issue that seems to be plaguing this country more and more in the past few years. Young, male minorities end up on the wrong side of an argument and are senselessly killed when a person in authority pulls a gun unnecessarily. We have seen numerous news reports about it happening and several films based on this typ... Read More |
