Run Fatboy Run

September 26, 2008 // 0 Comments

Since the incredible "Shaun Of The Dead, " Simon Pegg has become a warrant for laughs, an icon for dry British humor, but with much less talk than, say, Ricky Gervais. When I got my hands on his latest film "Run Fatboy Run" that is now [...]

Josh Hartnett is a man bearing many acting caps, be it as Jamie Lee Curtis' son in "Halloween: H20," a lovesick GI in "Pearl Harbor" or his memorable Travolta-esque Tripp Fontaine in "The Virgin Suicides." Now that most [...]

Interview With The Vampire

September 24, 2008 // 0 Comments

It is hard to believe it has been 14 years already since this movie first made it to theaters, but I vividly remember still how, when I first read Anne Rice's novel "Interview with the Vampire", I was impressed by the unique, romantic view [...]

Half Past Dead

Don Michael Paul directed his first feature film in 2002 with the forgettable Steven Seagal action film "Half Past Dead" and quickly went back to television. He is also the one responsible for writing the almost impossibly stupid script, [...]

Punk's Not Dead

September 22, 2008 // 0 Comments

A large portion of my journalism gigs to this point revolve around heavy metal and punk rock. Sad to see that what was already fought and issued a truce for in the late eighties has resurfaced though not with the same brute ugliness, happy to say. [...]

In 1977, Dario Argento directed "Suspiria, " the first film in what became known as the "Three Mothers" trilogy that continued with "Inferno" in 1980, leaving fans waiting nearly 30 years for the final chapter. That chapter [...]

The Love Guru

It's been rather quiet around Mike Myers for some time with the last Austin Powers movie already being 6 years old and Shrek not accounting for much in my book. As such I was glad to see him in a new movie when the Blu-Ray version of "The Love [...]

Steel City

September 11, 2008 // 0 Comments

A really good indie film has the capacity to tap into what's unexpectedly real in life, sometimes bringing you to haunting flashpoint such as "The River's Edge," "Blue Velvet" or last year's unexpected Academy swiper [...]

20th Century Fox Home Entertainment has been doing a great job releasing the classic Charlie Chan movies on DVD in box sets that chronicle all of the motion picture adventures of the Chinese detective from Honolulu, Hawaii. Here now is Volume 5 of the [...]

Starship Troopers 3: Marauder

September 5, 2008 // 0 Comments

Well, here we go again, they've released into the marketplace another mindless sequel to a Paul Verhoeven film. I'm lucky enough to have escaped seeing "Basic Instinct 2", "Hollow Man 2", "Total Recall 2070", [...]
