If you've never seen a cannibal movie and somehow stumble into Eli Roth's THE GREEN INFERNO then I'm positive that you're going to be shocked, outraged and there's a good bet whatever you bought at the food stand is going to end up on your clothes.
With that said, if you've seen CANNIBAL...
Ok, on December 9th I sold some One Touch test strips on Ebay. The buyer contacted me on the 10th asking where her package was and I told her I just shipped it that day, via Priority and she'd have it in 2-3 days. I told her if it didn't arrive to let me know. Well, I heard nothing from her...
So, I was having a random conversation with a couple people today and was shocked to hear one guy (35+ years old) and one girl (25ish) say that they had never been to a movie alone in their life. Both appear to be casual movie fans but said they never go alone because they feel as if they get...
Michael Douglas.
Robert DeNiro.
Morgan Freeman.
Kevin Kline.
Four great, loveable actors who you really want to see do "good" work but sadly more often than not they deliver disappointing films. It's so sad to see actors you've watched for decades get to the later parts of their careers and...
I'm not a die-hard fan of the JACKASS television show or the three movies. I enjoyed each of the three movies but thought they got a little boring as they went along or at least they ran out of steam after a while. That's certainly not the case with this film, which is without question one of...
My title of this being the greatest horror film is obviously a joke but YOU'RE NEXT is yet the latest horror movie to be talked up as if it's a masterpiece but it turned out to be incredibly bland. As a die-hard horror fan I will admit that this has been a pretty good year for the genre but I...
If there was every a director, a writer, a role and an actress that were born to be together then you're going to find it here in Woody Allen's latest. I'll admit that I'm a major fan of the director and that I loved MIDNIGHT IN PARIS and really thought TO ROME WITH LOVE deserved more...
Anyone else crazy enough to drop $7 to watch this thing???
Paul Schrader and Bret Easton Ellis are so damn talented that it's just shocking to see their name of this film, which is really beyond bad. I'd say it's the greatest WTF movie I've ever seen because there wasn't a single second where...
This Sundance favorite seemed to get a wider release over the weekend and I caught a matinee on Friday. I'm not going to call this a great movie as I think there's a bit too much hype around it but it's certainly worth watching and still extremely good.
I wasn't overly familiar with the...
As I walked out of the theater this beautiful, fine morning I had a burning desire to find director Roland Emmerich and kick him in a certain area. In fact, I had a desire to kick him there for 132-minutes, which is what it felt like to watch this horrid piece of crap that really proves to me...
I love zombie movies and I enjoy Brad Pitt but I decided to take in the latest from Coppola first (will do WWZ tom).
The movie wasn't great but it's certainly very good and will be of entertainment to those wanting to break free of the monster movies being released each week. I think what I...

Man, talk about beating a dead horse day after day after day. THE HANGOVER II was a pretty big disappointment since the filmmakers just got lazy and re-did the first film in a new location but it looks like the work of Chaplin compared to PART III. There were about ten people in my screening...
I watched Rob Zombie's latest earlier in the week. I'm not a major fan of the director. I think he's has a terrific vision for the screen but he's just not talented enough to actually make it worth. This film here deals with a DJ (Sheri Moon Zombie; not a porn actress) who gets a record from...
I've seen about three dozen or so movies at the theater this year and the most boring thing are seeing the same trailers over and over again. For some reason I didn't see a single trailer for THE BIG WEDDING. I'm not sure what the marketing campaign was for this thing but when you've got four...
I know when you say PG-13 horror film all sorts of fans goes crazy but like THE POSSESSION this here turned out to be pretty effective. The movie managed to have a dark atmosphere and some very creepy moments but I think it's greatest thing was the lead performance by Jessica Chastain and the...
Just got back from a 10pm showing and was the only one there. I hope this just means this theater needs to advertise these early screenings and doesn't mean people are going to stay away from this. I saw the trailer with quite a few crowds and it seems a lot of people were laughing at seeing an...
Is Thurday at 10pm the new opening date for movies? Either way, I wasn't planning on checking this out but the movie I went to see got bumped for the new releases so I decided to go with this thing. If you're expecting L.A. CONFIDENTIAL or some sort of Oscar-worthy film then you're going to be...
OK, I'm not the biggest fan of this series but I must admit that I was really won over by this film. It's a direct sequel to the first film (ala HALLOWEEN: H20) and it really has me excited on what's going to come next. I'm hoping I wasn't the only one who checked this one out (although I was...
The horrible year for horror continues.
I wasn't a fan of the original but this sequel is incredibly cheap. There's really nothing new here as this is basically a rip of the first one. Pretty much the only difference is that this here takes place at a water park. The CGI fish are pretty bad...
Track the Films You Watch (2011) Ok, another year is among us but I guess it's best to start off (for the first time) with a warning of issues on the front page. I got several PMs last year from people having various issues with the front page so hopefully this won't happen this year...
Saw 3D (2010) Kevin Greutert The seventh and apparently final entry in the series has a group of Jigsaw survivors standing behind one (Sean Patrick Flanery) who has written a book about battling your odds. The only catch is that he's really not a survivor of Jigsaw but soon he's...
There was a pretty big crowd for an early Friday matinee but it seems like everyone walked out disappointed. I'm not sure if Paramount plans to turn this series into something we get a new entry in every few years but hopefully future entries will be better. Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)...
My Soul to Take (2010) Wes Craven Wes Craven's return to the horror genre hits with a major thud and turns out to be his most disappointing film since VAMPIRE IN BROOKLYN. The story is a pretty interesting one as a serial killer murders his pregnant wife as well as six other people but...
I guess I shouldn't be shocked that there wasn't already a thread on this one. Only a total of five people showed up at the first screening today and the theater manager said only two showed up for the midnight screening so I'd say this here isn't going to be a hit. Piranha 3D (2010) ...
My 7-month old joined day care this week, which means I can go to the movies on my days off (Friday) so I decided to check this thing out as I thought the trailers made it look great. Blah. A real disappointment. Jonah Hex (2010) Jimmy Hayward After seeing his family murdered...
