The werewolf sub-genre of horror is quite possibly one of the more frequently explored and quite possibly the one that tends to entice rather easily. Some can take it in a new direction, some can have impressive make-up work and some can be notable if just for a moment in the film. The Wolf of […]

About one year ago we were getting to revisit the world of Vince Gilligan’s Breaking Bad in the more present tense or “post-Breaking Bad” once more with El Camino. We’ve currently been living in the pre-Breaking Bad world with the phenomenal Better Call Saul the last five years or so, but now its time to […]

Schlocky filmmaking is seriously my cup of tea. That should come as no surprise, considering I host and produce my podcast Cult Cinema Cavalcade. Funny enough, I’ve yet to tackle the filmmaker who is the subject of this documentary even though I have many planned on the docket. Larry Cohen is one of the best […]

Twin Peaks was a true cult sensation. The short lived show is probably the biggest such television program since the original Star Trek. It only had life for 2 seasons and almost 30 episodes. Fandom never died on the show, it delivered a film prequel by Lynch himself and was one of the few televisions […]

I did not see this coming, but London Has Fallen proves to be the movie that shows what nuance Michael Bay can bring to his films by comparison. This generic and borderline offensive sequel to 2013’s Olympus Has Fallen is downright schlocky in the way it proposes to back up its $100 million budget with […]

When Scream Factory announced they were releasing Supernova many moons ago, I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the distributor’s most celebrated announcement of all time. The film came out back in 2000, wasn’t liked at all and bombed at the box office pretty hard. Director Walter Hill allowed it to have some sort of historical significance […]

Isn’t it funny to think that Alex Proyas’ 2004 sci-fi action-thriller I, Robot is already ten years old? It doesn’t seem that long. The CG effects don’t look aged. The actors, save for a young Shia LaBeouf, don’t look like they’ve aged all that much, either. The story hasn’t aged, as is evidenced by the […]

Supernova turns 15 years old next year. After blowing out that 15th candle on its cake, it’ll be able to, like most of us probably, give it another look. This film was a pretty massive failure at the box office, too. Also of note, its the first film to use the “Thomas Lee” pseudonym instead […]

Stop the press! I don’t care if it’s only a brief moment…word has it that Ashley Judd makes an appearance in Olympus Has Fallen and that’s good enough for me! It warms my heart that she’s actually in a movie that’s critically reviewed as being okay because God I swear she has made more bad […]

It is funny how some movies strike me differently than others, despite their similarities. Olympus Has Fallen has all the jingoism, xenophobia, and silliness to match awful films like Red Dawn or Red Tails. It is also cheap and ugly enough at times to match an awful film like A Good Day To Die Hard. […]
