The latest entertainment news and reviews in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, movies and more…
Just in time for the holidays, it seems I have been bombarded with horror films lately. Funny how that works, right? I have to admit, the films I’ve seen have been campy, tense and interesting. So now that I’m stumbling upon Never Let Go, Alexandre Aja’s newest entry into scary stuff, where does the film […]
Question the evil when NEVER LET GO arrives on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack and DVD on December 3 from Lionsgate®. Executive produced by and starring Academy Award® winner Halle Berry (Actress in a Leading Role, 2001 – Monster’s Ball) and directed by Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes), this psychologically complex film arrives at home just […]
Crawl has all the makings of a B-grade disaster thriller – ominous weather, a main character who doesn’t listen to authority, impending death. It’s all there in a neat little package. This is a package perfectly wrapped for the audience that doesn’t need deep insight, backstory or terribly emotional acting. This may all sound like a […]
Producer Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) and director Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes) deliver “a suspenseful thrill ride” (Jim Vejvoda, IGN) in CRAWL, coming to Digital September 24, 2019 and on Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand October 15 from Paramount Home Entertainment.
There’s no shortage of lessor known film fare this week, though not all the movie news is good. But frankly scouring the smaller cinema is a lot like gambling – even though the house has the advantage there’s always hope for that rare big payday. (Aka gems and duds will get reviewed!) Going from high […]
From what I can tell, Horns is going to be like Jennifer’s Body. It carries that same tone and vibe, but what I’m really getting at is the fact that you’re really going to love it or you’re going to absolutely hate it. I really can’t see anyone stuck in the dead middle here. However, […]
Here’s one that I have heard mixed things about, but the trailer makes it looks so wonderful that I kind of still want to give it that old college try if you know what I mean. Of course I’m talking about the odd Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe, horror film Horns, which will be making its […]

Following the special screenings and Q&As for The Mist and the double-dose of Guillermo del Toro features, I was then able to catch a screening of the horror remake Maniac at the Hero Complex Film Festival in LA. Maniac is a remake of an 80s horror feature of the same name and features the same […]
I have never seen the original 1978 Piranha film, but much to my surprise, my wife has. She has seen it many times as she told me. I don’t know. It must be a cultural thing. So anyway, I guess that’s why she was so anxious to check this one out in the theater many […]
Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the “Blu” water. LOL. The re-imagining of the classic Piranha movie was one I did not think I would enjoy, but after all the positive critic buzz I just had to check it out. Sure enough, I LOVED every minute of it! I […]
There was a time when this film was threatened with the possibility of not being released, only to later be threatened with having a release, but not a 3D release. Fortunately enough, the powers at be made it possible for this film to be release as intended, thus preserving its artistic integrity. Anyway, there is […]
