“Texas Chainsaw Massacre” is basically a reskin of “Halloween Kills,” right down to the feeble attempt to connect it to the original.

“Peacemaker” season 1 is an absolute delight, packed with fun, violence and irreverence yet somehow managing to tell a heartwarming story.

You can find me in da….comic book movie? No stranger to film and television both in front of and behind the camera, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson’s G-Unit Film & Television production company has its sights set on a new comic book adaption. The media company recently optioned Christopher Priest’s comic Xerø, a short lived DC Comics series that ran from 1997-1998. Though originally a DC Comics property, the rights reverted back to Priest in 2008, which means that this new development deal will be exclusive to G-Unit and their partners Color Farm Media and newly launched Illuminous, with no involvement…

“Lucy and Desi” manages to stand out, with a compelling look into the fascinating lives of the beloved power couple.

I’m going to get my bias and skepticism out of the way so you can bypass my stance and get to the nitty gritty. I can’t think of anything worse than a corporation hellbent on global domination developing their own corporate residential communities. It’s like we’ve learned nothing from literally every single historical and fictional depiction of a business owning small towns. I don’t care how magical you still find the Matterhorn. Disney building residential communities is literally the premise of “Resident Evil,” and feels more like a real life Umbrella Corporation than a magical time of living next to…

We often forget how much work goes into making films. Even more so, we forget how many people are involved in a single project, and how many things can and usually do go wrong. Hell, anyone who’s ever done a science project with 4 people knows full well that anything that can get crossed or go wrong typically does. Now multiply that by 100s of people all working on different parts of the same project, and it’s amazing that we ever get movies at all. Ahead of Pixar’s “Lightyear” releasing this June, the often forgotten “Toy Story 2” deletion fiasco…

The midnight section of the Sundance Film Festival often sports some of the most talked about films from the event. It may not get a ton of awards at the festival’s conclusion, but viewers often have a lot to say about them, and “Fresh” is no exception. Luckily for the rest of us, the new horror film not only gets a fresh (pun intended) new trailer, but a release date on Hulu as well. The film stars Daisy Edgar Jones and Sebastian Stan (as you’ve never seen him before and that includes his run as Tommy Lee in “Pam &…

“Kimi” is tight and concise, and while it may be too much of a slow burn for some, this is a thriller with something to say.

I can’t think of anything worse than giving the dark side of Film Twitter validation. And while I’ll admit the Academy Awards are in desperate need of change (and have been for years), I’m not entirely sure this is the best method to combat Kevin Smith’s misplaced criticisms for not nominating “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” Nevertheless, the Oscars and Twitter are joining together to allow users to use the hashtag #OscarsFanFavorite to vote for their favorite film of 2021. The only criteria is that the film had to have been last year, and do not have to be nominated or…

It is with a heavy heart that one of the greats has passed away. Ivan Reitman’s career, spanning decades has given film loves countless classics, and laid the foundational work for some of the most beloved actors of our time. Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Eugene Levy, even Arnold Schwarzenegger were all recurring cast members in a countless films of Reitman’s, and he has a true vision for letting his actors shine in improve driven roles while also telling humorous and interesting stories. Let’s take a close look at some of the best films from Reitman’s extensive and robust filmography. This…
