Somehow, in 2017, we have finally gotten to the point where they are making great STARS WARS films. Not just good ones, or ones that meet our measured expectations, but great films. THE LAST JEDI is not a perfect film, but it is entertaining and manages to balance...
How do you make a good movie about a really bad movie? THE DISASTER ARTIST both asks, and answers that question. Drawing from the infamously awful THE ROOM, James Franco’s film somehow eschews both cruelty and romantic notions of one of the worst films of all time. To...
[GUYS. There are tons of spoilers below. Tons.] I am not the target audience for JUSTICE LEAGUE. I haven’t read the comics, nor have I enjoyed the films in the DC Universe (save WONDER WOMAN). Because of this I am willing to ignore the fact that JUSTICE LEAGUE...
Everyone has their own white whale. That seemingly unattainable dream you will pine for, and chase, but may never get. For me, attending the Blood In The Snow film fest in Toronto has been that whale. It is one of the few horror fests that features films you...

Ok horror fiends, you know the drill. Every few months some crappy horror film is trotted out to theaters in hopes of making some quick cash for the studios via a big opening weekend. This September, the offering placed upon our altar is FRIEND REQUEST. (Caution: There are...
Come on down and see FRIEND REQUEST for free on Wednesday, September 20th in Boston! I can’t say if the film is any good or not, but I can say that this us an excellent time of year for horror films. Here is the info: From the press...
Darren Aronofsky is not here to make friends. His films are not meant to be easy or digestible. But they also do not aim to be crude for the sake of crudeness either. His films show us the darkest sides of humanity and the human experience, but fail...
