Movie Review

Joe Carnahan delivers a balls to the wall action thriller with COPSHOP. The film stars Gerard Butler, Frank Grillo, Alexis Louder (the star of the film) and a slew of other character actors. My favorite of which is Toby Huss as the rival hitman. He’s over the top and I

Kino Lorber has released on of my favorite horror/thriller film. The 1973 film has come to 4K. I can’t think of a better ensemble cast in a horror film like Invasion of the Body Snatchers While watching the film in 4K and I was blown away by the sound. Yes,

Wes Craven’s movies have left an indelible mark on the horror genre. Scream is one of the best ways to ease yourself into the horror genre. It was one of the films that brought me back into the horror family. Horror is subjective, but Scream has some horrific kill scenes. Writer,

I’m in love with Squid Game, and was a big fan of Escape Room. One would think that I would enjoy Tournament of Champions. They would be wrong. The concept of the two survivors coming back in the sequel and get involved in the game again. The concept has a

Detention is in select theaters and online now from Dekanalog. Detention is directed and co-written by John Hsu and stars Gingle Wang, Fu Meng-po, Tseng Ching-hua, Cecilia Choi, and Hung Chang Chu.  I went into Detention completely lit blind. I hadn’t seen the trailer or read the synopsis. The color

I remember watching The Silence of the Lambs with my parents when it was initially released. This may seem odd, but then again I watched and enjoyed Jodie Foster in another “heavy“ film, The Accused. I decided to ask my wife if she remembered seeing this in theaters. She could

I remember watching Misery in theaters. It’s one of the first times that I could feel the pain of the main character, expertly played by James Caan. Misery may be Caan’s best movie, but Kathy Bates is the star of the show. This is a career defining role. I also

Paramount Presents continues to release some great films from the Paramount vault. Breakdown is my favorite film to be released as of yet. Kurt Russell is fantastic as the lead in this taut thriller. I remember first seeing this film in theaters. My friends and I loved it. I’m a

I watched F9 today and am sad to report it was my least favorite film in the franchise. If you thought the franchise jumped the shark in the last movie, then be prepared. Four words, Pontiac Fiero in space. There is one action scene during the final act that is

Kino Lorber continues to release awesome Blu-rays with some great special features. Masquerade is no exception. Meg Tilly and Rob Lowe star in this thriller set in the world of socialites and sailing boats. Money is not the main concern of most of the characters. Everyone can relate to love,

Sexy Furby is by far the most unique film that I’ve seen in a long time.  Sexy Furby had its world premiere at the 25th Annual Fantasia International Film Fest. This short is a comedy with a slight mix of horror. Many times I found my eyes building out of

I’m not surprised by how much I enjoyed Pig. I had to watch this so much that when my screener link did not work I bought the movie digitally. Pig is written and directed Michael Sarnoski by and stars Nicolas Cage, Alex Wolff, and Alan Arkin. Set in the Pacific

I have to say that I was never a fan of the GI JOE films. I’ve yet to watch Snake Eyes. These films arrive on 4K4K this week. The second film looks great, but they are very skimpy on special features. I’m sad to say that Rise of Cobra does

Scream Factory has done it again. The Dead Zone is a must-own for fans of Cronenberg, King, and of course Christopher Walken. I remember watching this when I was younger and being terrified. Mainly because of the ice skating portion. A man wakes up from a coma, only to realize

Almost Famous is available tomorrow in a 4K Steelbook which is a thing of beauty. I’ve been a fan of steelbook releases lately. There’s just something satisfying about the sound of the case clicking and the sturdiness of the case. Almost Famous has a nice matte finish with beautiful artwork

I went into this movie relatively blind, aside from the fact that I had a sense it would be about wax. Unfortunately, I was very unimpressed with the film itself. I felt that the first portion of the film was excruciatingly long, and without reason. If there is a major
