We've got 2001's Josie and the Pussycats starring Rachel Leigh Cook, Rosario Dawson, and Tara Reid as the rockin' trio just waiting for their big break while playing huge gigs like the local bowling alley. Along for the ride, and playing their nastiness to the hilt, are Parker Posey and Alan Cummi...

We're 8 days into this new year, and we still can't wrap our heads around that it's 2023. But, here we are. Last week, we dropped 1991's Mortal Thoughts to kick off our Moore, Moore, Moore!!! theme, and the consensus is we picked a movie a lot of people hadn't seen yet. That's as exciting as anything when we turn people onto something they hadn't seen before. #2 will drop on Patreon via Early Acce...

Incredibly loyal to the source material by filmmakers that grew up with the comics. And the love they give to it is PERFECT. Along with Urban , Olivia Thirlby and Lena Headley complete the main cast bringi...
