GETS BETTER BY THE VIEWING I want to start this deep dive review with the fact that I saw this movie twice within 3 days. I told two buddies I’d see it with them and ended up seeing it separately with each and even knowing what to expect the second time it still was tough... Continue Reading →
SIPPIN’ CINEMA SERIES – TAKE 5 – STRANGE DARLING: SERIAL KILLER FILM THAT ACTUALLY KEPT ME GUESSING
I went into this film basically blind, and stumbling upon a gem like this one doesn’t happen often when going in blind! I knew Kyle Gallner was in it and it was about a serial killer. But that’s it. Thought we were getting a pretty basic formula. Kyle Gallner chasing a girl or others throughout... Continue Reading →
SINNERS: Mainstream Stars Make A Vampire Horror Movie Cool Again
INITIAL THOUGHTS Wow this film fucking BANGED. A mainstream vampire horror film that focused on black culture and impact of music in the rural south? Whoever heard this idea from Ryan and also knew it would stick and be a home run deserves all the praise in the world along with him. I know this... Continue Reading →
THE ACCOUNTANT 2: Take The Good From The First and File That Return On #2
BERNTHAL - AFFLECK BROMANCE RUNS THE FILM Exactly as the header of this states, The Accountant 2 takes the relationship of Christian and Brax and makes it primarily the focal point and the train tracks the entire film runs on. Feels like a common trope to have characters with stark differences that get along for... Continue Reading →
WEAPONS: Zach Cregger’s Upcoming Magnum Opus
Zach Cregger has a lot to live up to following how wildly popular Barbarian was among the horror community. A film that took your perception of what it was going to be, flipped it on its head, and gave us a crazy concept with a fucked up dark twist to grasp onto starring Justin Long.... Continue Reading →
SIPPIN’ CINEMA SERIES – TAKE 4 – JUROR #2: HOULT TAKES CONTROL OF THE ROOM IN EASTWOOD IN COURT DRAMA
Nicholas Hoult gets my attention in almost everything he does. The Menu, Renfield, The Great, and many more add to his resume that is quickly growing and showing him as a force in cinema. Not to mention his exciting big role coming up as Hutter in Nosferatu. He really shows off his acting chops in... Continue Reading →
THE WILD ROBOT: This Legitimately Could Be Dreamworks Best Animation Film (SPOILERS)
“ANIMATION IS A MEDIUM, NOT A GENRE” Guillermo del Toro put it extremely well when saying “Animation is a medium, not a genre.” It feels like animation can transcend genres and find new ways to tell stories. The Wild Robot does exactly that. This is a fucking masterpiece of a film. This is a story... Continue Reading →
Terrifier 3: More Blood, More Kills, More Art, More Lore, More Everything
ART IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER If you were expecting a sequel, while set during Christmas, that ramps up everything we love about the Terrifier franchise to a 15/10, then you got it! There are a plethora of kills that will make you turn over in your seat or cover your eyes. So many... Continue Reading →
31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN: A QUIET PLACE DAY ONE
THE STEP DOWN FOR THE FRANCHISE I hate to express this but I did not like this movie as much as I wanted to. Did I enjoy the human relationship between Eric and Sammy? Of course, and I think that’s all the movie went out to accomplish was show the growth and connection of a... Continue Reading →
31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN: THE PURGE: ANARCHY
WHAT THE PURGE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALL ALONG I always am excited to revisit, in my opinion, what the purge should have been about all along. Plenty of violence. Inner city setting rather than a home invasion. Crazy costumes and freaks out. And enough political undertones to keep you interested in the fact there is... Continue Reading →
