“Pain Don’t Hurt.”
I’m already behind on my westerns . . . fail . . . but I’ll have to continue ignoring them for just a little bit longer because Road House popped up on TV the other day, and I’d somehow gone … Continue reading

“I Am The Eater of Worlds . . . And of Children!”
Stephen King adaptations are, historically, not awesome. For every Stand by Me or The Shawshank Redemption, there is a Needful Things – or a Dreamcatcher – or a Children of the Corn – or a Lawnmower Man – or a Maximum Overdrive – or a Tommyknockers – or, hell, even a Haven. Which, hey, could be good, … Continue reading

“The Murderer is Right in This Room, Sitting at This Table. You May Serve the Fish.”
I love writing my excessively wordy reviews, but sometimes they are a bit draining because — unfortunately — I’m not a particularly fast writer, and 3,000 words of snarky analysis actually does take me a while. So I think I … Continue reading
“PUNISH!”
Sometimes, I regret not having grown up in the 1950′s and 60′s when impressionable young children could ride their bicycles down to the local theater and see a double feature of cheap grindhouse and bad monster movies. (Everything I know about … Continue reading
“Mind Your Business! I Shall Be Eaten by Whomever I Please!”
So I made this horror movie challenge for myself at the beginning of the year, and I can already tell you that I’m going to fail it. Abysmally. We’ll talk about punishment come December, but for now, let’s get to … Continue reading
“Copy, Dispatch. Send . . . More . . . Paramedics.”
As many of my friends could tell you, I’m a bit of a zombie enthusiast. Yet, sadly, I developed my love for zombies late in life (like, in my late teens/early twenties) and am thus still catching up on many … Continue reading
“Well, Here, Lads. You’ve Discovered a Species Hitherto Unknown to Science, Quite Possibly Non-Terrestial in Origin, and You Kicked It’s Fuckin’ Head In.”
Taking a brief break from superhero movies—I realize the last six films I’ve reviewed have been The Incredible Hulk, The Avengers, and Batman through Batman & Robin—I thought I might try something a little bit different. I don’t know if it’s my favorite alien … Continue reading
“Well, I Can Respect Your Opinion. Sadly, I’m Not Good at Rejection. I’m Afraid You’ll Have to Die.”
The worst thing about not being a professional movie critic is that it doesn’t matter how much time you spend working a review—you could write your little heart and soul out, bleed yourself dry, and you’re still not getting paid. … Continue reading

“I’M Batman!”
Well, Tim Burton had a vision of Gotham, and it was dark and gothic. Joel Schumacher, on the other hand? He saw it as a bit more colorful than that.
