I can’t believe it’s been 30 years now. Wow! I feel old. Yep! It’s been 30 years since the theatrical release of The Crow. The movie is a very memorable one to me. So much so that it magically brought me out of writing retirement for the temporary time being. The Crow is also a […]
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.

Today’s selection is a great example of how to take a former piece of theater and make it cinematic. […]
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 […]
