By the time The X-Files got to its fourth season, it had become a hit show with its own fan base called “X-Philes.” This is something considering a lot of people had predicted it would be canceled by the halfway point of the first season. One of the smartest moves the Fox Network did wasContinue reading “When ‘The X-Files’ Got Banned”

‘No One Will Save’ A Disappointing Alien Invasion Thriller
A movie like No One Will Save You has a lot of potential and attempts to take a different route but in the end, literally, it fails to deliver. Much of the movie lacks dialogue with a few lines from the protagonist, Brynn (Kaitlyn Dever) and some other dialogue spoken by people in the background.Continue reading “‘No One Will Save’ A Disappointing Alien Invasion Thriller”
This Is Isreal’s War, Not Ours
Let me start by saying, I find it horrible to hear of the attacks by the terrorist organization Hamas against the people of Isreal. I can’t begin to think what the people there are going through of their family elsewhere who have to watch in horror. A young woman I follow on social media wasContinue reading “This Is Isreal’s War, Not Ours”
Please Help If You Can, This Family Really Needs Any And All Help
I know many of you are spread out throughout the world. I appreciate you all being subscribers and I hope you share my posts when you can. Earlier this month, I heard some sad news.

‘Zombie Town’ Is Brainless
Zombie Town tries to have its cake and eat it too. It’s a horror comedy that isn’t too funny nor is it too scary. It tries to be for kids but thinks if it throws in just enough potty humor, adults will like it too. Neither works. Even worse, the movie boasts the talents ofContinue reading “‘Zombie Town’ Is Brainless”
What People Get Wrong About ‘Demolition Man’ As It Turns 30
By the early 1990s, Sylvester Stallone’s career had hit the skids. Following a string of less than stellar action movies like Rambo III, Lock-Up and the problematic Tango & Cash, he had moved over into comedy with the farcical Oscar and the terrible Stop or My Mom Will Shoot! So, when he returned to formContinue reading “What People Get Wrong About ‘Demolition Man’ As It Turns 30”
‘Only Murders’ Continues To Slay Them Despite Somewhat Uneven Season 3
I’ve had this theory that most series that become big surprises during their initial season, usually start to show their cracks by the third season. Mainly, it’s because everyone anticipates the second season to be gangbusters and it usually is. This leaves some fatigue afterwards. Look at the third season of Friends and how someContinue reading “‘Only Murders’ Continues To Slay Them Despite Somewhat Uneven Season 3”
‘The Meg 2’ Lacks Much Bite
The first Meg movie had some excitement to it. I saw it on a very rainy fall day and it’s the type of movie you throw on when it’s soaking wet rain and too cold to really get out. As Jonas Taylor, Jason Statham plays the stereotypical burnt out merchant for hire who suffers aContinue reading “‘The Meg 2’ Lacks Much Bite”
‘Arachnophobia’ Spins A Web Of Chills, Thrills And Funny Feels
What is it about spiders that scare some of us? Is it those eight hairy legs or the way they have fangs that you can see on some species? Or it could be the way they wrap their prey up in their webs to suck their blood. Even in Charlotte’s Web, there was something sinisterContinue reading “‘Arachnophobia’ Spins A Web Of Chills, Thrills And Funny Feels”
Did ‘Taxi Driver’ Foretell The Future Or Just Spotlight A Silent Beast?
Paul Schrader, who wrote the script for Taxi Driver, said after the movie was released in 1976, he was approached by a random stranger who he had never seen before. Somehow this man found out who he was and that he had written the movie. Schrader said the man was hostile wanting to know howContinue reading “Did ‘Taxi Driver’ Foretell The Future Or Just Spotlight A Silent Beast?”
