Arnold Schwarzenegger. Love his joyfully entertaining movies, think he's a talentless slug, consider him a legend of action movie cinema or hate him for his personal life turmoil and politics-the man deserved better then to have his return to the silver screen shelved till the January dead hours and then have it turn in a loss. Especially when it's not half bad. … more
Be warned: some folks sense of humor can be tiringly maudlin. And, as anyone can tell humor, humor is indeed a difficult concept. It’s certainly one that doesn’t always translate (or transmit) well from person to person: what one person finds funny, another finds depressing. Such is life, and such is the case with STRUCK BY LIGHTNING, GLEE’s Chris … more
Auteurs get a bad rap, and that isn’t because they lack the ability to provide a cohesive product that can also make a buck. More likely, it’s due to the fact that audiences avoid even investing time and effort into understanding not every film’s message is going to be grasped and understood in the first fifteen (or so) minutes. As our attention spans have … more
A good friend and I have a running debate about the nature of horror films that centers around why so many scripts involve protagonists and/or victims of a high school age. My friend contends consistently that youth of that ripe, young age haven’t quite been spoiled (or is that soiled?) by the cynicism of adulthood, and, as such, ghosts and spirits are drawn to them. … more
Don't be mislead by the Headline, oh and this review WILL contain spoilers, so if you haven't seen the movie yet I suggest you finish off this paragraph then go see it. Again this review contains spoilers so if you haven't seen the movie yet STOP READING, although the Headline itself is a big giveaway,. Anyways on to the review. … more
When I first heard that Wong Kar-Wai was going to do a film about Bruce Lee's teacher, I immediately thought that his movie would be like "Wyatt Earp" to "Tombstone"... that his The Grandmaster would be like "Wyatt Earp" to Wilson Yip's "Ip Man". Wong takes his film into an artsy approach that had become his signature. Having … more
There are good aspects to video production becoming so affordable, and, of course, there are bad aspects. One might say “many bad aspects,” but I’ll just leave it at “bad.” One of the downsides is that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can – with a reasonable commitment of resources – throw together a film, take it on the independent or festival … more
This movie was written by newcomer Delondra Williams and Keith Allan who wrote and directed The Asylum's 11/11/11, not sure why I felt the need to let you know that. Any way this is a good enough zombie flick especially for The Asylum. I would say if you are a zombie movie fanatic then check this out. To anyone else, you can probably skip it if you didn't like the previous zombie flick from this director … more
RISE OF THE ZOMBIES I have to say that I really do love The Asylum; I can't help it I am a sucker for these no/low budget movies they churn out. That of course includes the mock busters they constantly produce. In fact I watch more of these kinds of movies than the ones with actual budgets and hit theaters. This film … more

FM_ALEX posted a Quick Tip about Sinister.
Tuesday
This is one of the best horror movie I have seen in a while, especially from here in America. I have really been enjoying foreign horror films more so the past couple of years but this one is very very good. Written by first timer C. Robert Cargill and director Scott Derrickson this movie has everything you could want from a horror flick. The best thing though in my opinion is the atmosphere of this … more
SINISTER Supernatural/ghost/demon stories seem to always strike a chord with me for some reason. That whole things are there but you can't see them/things go bump in the night thing just gets me. I have always loved things like "Unsolved Mysteries" and "A Haunting" for just that reason. So when these … more
STEPHEN KING'S DESPERATION "Desperation" is one of my favorite King novels out there, in fact I remember the day I bought it. It was in 1996 when I was living in Laredo Texas, I got it with his other novel under the name Richard Bachman, "The Regulators". I had to get both because they … more
J.J. Abrams made quite a splash when he released 2009’s “Star Trek”. I suppose it was the right approach to revitalize the franchise, by creating a re-boot that gave him all the needed loop holes to do such things. His first “Star Trek“ flick left the ‘space opera‘ feeling and instead went for something that feels more like an action-adventure which was arguably … more
The trailer looked great, a troubled woman, a man who can help her and he's in trouble too-wait a minute....Noomi Rapace.....Niels Arden Oplev? The Girl With the Dragon … more
