With all the excitement surrounding these next two Halloween sequels, which will be the final entries in this particular timeline, there's always a question lingering in the back of my head: where do they go from there?... There's no doubt in my mind that Blumhouse will continue making sequels if all goes well, but it's always a matter of what they do and how they do it. The possibilities for a Ha...

This trailer goes out of it's way to let the viewers know "This is not a love story", and that "This is the story of love"... Noted. But when we're talking black cinema and romantic comedies or just romantically driven films overall, The Photograph is still at the top as one of the best since Love Jones. But something about the Indie feel and simplicity is what is interesting about this here. My b...

What a find... This was always one of my favorite movies growing up, and still is. The fact that this is a very metta comedy which breaks the fourth wall continuously throughout has always been one of it's strengths. Before Austin Powers, this was the role that made Mike Myers a national treasure for me, regardless of his critical bad apple films he has done. Also the Bohemian Rhapsody sequence is...

The old saying goes "There's a time and a place for everything"... But try telling that to a money hungry box office behemoth like Disney/Marvel. That's not to say that I don't thoroughly enjoy many of their films, because I do, but this is one move they're about to make that will make or break my trust with them. With the tragic death of Chadwick Boseman, Black Panther 2 still seems to be very mu...

All I have to say is "wow"... I was at a loss for words when the news first broke that Michael Keaton was not only returning to play Batman in The Flash solo film, but that he's set to be the DCEU's main Batman. Yes, it threw me off as well. So I finally figured out the words to describe both my joy and my concern. Enjoy, y'all.

Before anybody gets the wrong idea, let me just say that (if I haven't said it during every other episode at some point) this guy is my favorite writer/director and NOTLD is my favorite movie of all time... But with every director's legacy comes the growing pains of learning every film you make won't get the same response. In this case, and while not all the films are terrible at all, the "Dead" s...

One thing about me is that it's very hard to get a jump or jolt out of me when it comes to horror flicks... Even as a kid, what scared the majority of genre fans didn't phase me much at all. But there's always something or someone in a movie that keeps me up nights. It doesn't always have to be the central antagonist either, and sometimes a character that has few scenes or only one is the icing on...

As someone who isn't the biggest fan of the original Exorcist film (calm down, I think it's well made, just not epic), this is a topic that surprisingly was on the brain for a bit... So I had to talk about it in full. While the movies may vary in overall quality over the years and while a tv series came and went, Blumhouse and Morgan Creek decided to "exorcise" their right to do a direct sequel to...

So being as though I'm all about fellow creative support, especially when it's for someone I know personally, it was time to give this a spin... This guy has been a creative artist since I met him in high school, so the respect is still there. But while the respect is heavy, we shall see how heavy the crown is he keeps on top of his head. Enjoy, people.

I finally go down to finishing an entire series... This is a big thing, on the low. But it's an accomplishment nonetheless. Enjoy, people.

With the new Coming 2 America sequel coming in 2021, and being 33 years in the making, something hit me this evening... I realized I had to get out of my own thought process when it comes to decade (plus) old sequels being made, and understand that some of them actually work at times. Other times, not so much. So it's both hit or miss in this category, but risky business nonetheless. With that bei...

There's even the most hated third entries in this genre that I have lots of love for... Scream 3, Child's Play 3, Halloween III, etc. And something about every third go round is supposed to come full circle and channel back to the first, for more nostalgic purposes. But THESE? Absolutely not. These are the pick of the litter that made studios and creators head straight back to that drawing board,...

What another find this was... One of my all time favorite movies from when I was a kid and even now, and still very effective. But since it's a real OG's birthday, I had to celebrate the man Solomon aka Ernie Hudson in this movie. I could have done Ghostbusters but if I can be honest, this movie is closer to my heart as far as content and structure goes. That, and Rebecca De Mornay is a classic nu...

Six movies into this insane series, and somehow a seventh has had my complete interest since it was announced last year or so... That's a bold statement from me, considering the fact that every movie after the original has gone straight to DVD. But with an unknown director (to me anyhow) and the writer of the first film (Halloween 4's Alan B. McElroy) attached, I can only think of what they can pu...

I love me some DC news, especially since I'm always most excited to see them flourish and get their much deserved shine on screen... Being as though Wonder Woman, as a whole, has completely turned me around interest wise, I am definitely looking forward to this sequel. Gal Gadot and Kristen Wiig duking it out will always peak my interest for sure. Enjoy, y'all.

With 2021 about to bless me with a brand new and rated R version of my beloved MK, I decided to talk about something that both caught my total interest and made me a bit sad at the same time... Mortal Kombat: Devastation, the flick we could've gotten once upon a time. With how MK: Annihilation divided so many fans with it's cluttered and unexplained execution, I feel like this would've been the on...

I've been putting this one here off a lot longer than I should've... Controversial and unpopular opinion or not, what I say here sticks for as long as I shall live. And this is all coming from someone who was a borderline Halloween 1978 purist, until I noticed that the series has been doing all types of weird shit all along. But for any fans or haters tuning in, buckle up for this one. Enjoy, peop...

So over the past two days, I decided to take a few people up on their recommendations and check out the Cobra Kai Netflix series... Two seasons. And surely enough I was in no way prepared to go down memory lane the way I did, all while that lane was connected to a roller coaster of emotion and action out of this world. This is easily one of the best tv series I've ever watched. Whether it was base...

Since Cuffing Season is back in effect, it was only right... I feel like this one speaks for itself, people. It's the black culture version of Fatal Attraction, minus the bunny rabbit and the stove and such. Enjoy, folks.

Other than the most memorable scene in this movie, it's gotten by me over the years... And since that one scene sticks out and people have recommended it to me multiple times, I finally decided to give it a go. Other than The Fly, I'm not the craziest person when it comes to David Cronenberg, but that's only because his movies tend to go way off the deep end with effects. Which is fine. So I had t...

So one of the Game Of Thrones Dragons---er, "Monsters" attack in this new clip from Paul W. S. Anderson's live action adaptation... I still haven't played the game, so my hype is almost nonexistent. But my curiosity on the other hand, always gets the best of me with these oversize creature features, so why not give it a spin or two? Enjoy, people.

I always look to be proven wrong with this particular sub-genre... The whole "crazy woman/crazy man-adultery-psycho stalker" angle has been done to death, but I'm strangely drawn to it. What I didn't want to do was write off Deon Taylor as a director, so I wanted to give this a fair shot and react to it. Then there are days when I feel like these types of movies are the crazy woman coming after me...

So with the new news of the remake casting Peter Dinklage in, what appears to be, a lead role, I decided to backtrack and head on over to the OG flick... There's nothing like source material. Especially when there's a bit of childhood nostalgia involved. While I think this new remake will definitely try to water things down, this movie is remembered for being sleazy, cheesy, and brutal. Which is w...

What a find!... I've actually been looking for this one for the longest, but it's been keeping away from me. But nothing can keep me from a childhood 90s classic like this. While I absolutely love the tv show, this is the source material for me so it'll always have nostalgia in my heart for certain. Kristy Swanson has never been more of a bad ass on screen in my opinion and to have the late great...

As a fan of stuff like Wrong Turn, Hatchet and The Hills Have Eyes, I'm down with disfigured slashers running amok and cutting their way through characters on screen. It's even more of a plus if I can root for those characters to fight back and survive. But one thing I can't be, when it comes to horror movies, is tricked. I've been there before. So I'm a bit careful going into these Indie horror f...
