June 1, 2006 // 0 Comments

Once in a great while a movie comes along that almost literally blows you away. Nothing could have prepared me for "Running Scared." Wayne Kramer's latest film is a hard-hitting, visceral, over-the-top extravaganza of blood and bullets that [...]

Mel Brooks' 1974 comedy "Blazing Saddles" is generally ranked as one of the funniest films ever made and is number 6 on AFI's list of 100 best comedies. While "Blazing Saddles" is certainly a funny film and great comedy, to [...]
