Nope – Collector’s Edition (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

Nope was probably my most anticipated movie of summer 2022 at the theaters. Something original from one of our best director’s that’s just sort of still even getting off the ground in terms of building a catalog. If Jordan Peele has a film out, you’re there opening weekend.

I don’t know what it is with the Golden Age of slashers that amuses me so much, but its something I’ve always been fond of and never really tired of.  Even bad ones (there’s plenty) I tend to enjoy.  There were so many of these things from 1980-1984 its not even funny.  So many, that […]
