Trigger Warning: This post contains references to sexual assault and domestic abuse. Calling Lawrence Ray a cult leader might not seem appropriate for some. He wasn’t Jim Jones nor David Koresh in the number of his followers. But that may be how he was able to fly under the radar for so many years. ForContinue reading “Documentaries Expose The Sex Cult Led By Lawrence Ray In Shocking Details”

Hey, Conservatives, Chelsea Handler’s ‘Daily Show’ Skit Was A Parody
The fact that Greg Gutfeld is what passes nowadays for conservative comedy, it should come as no surprise that many didn’t get the joke from a recent Daily Show skit by guest-host Chelsea Handler. I mean, Gutfeld looks like the type of guy who knows what decibel level to tell in a crowded room toContinue reading “Hey, Conservatives, Chelsea Handler’s ‘Daily Show’ Skit Was A Parody”
This Little ‘Piggy’ Gets Some Revenge
Piggy is one of those movies that anyone who ever was bullied growing up delights in because the bullies get their just desserts. In Carrie, when the gym teacher falls victim to the titular character’s wrath at the prom, I felt it was justifiable. She had just as much to do with the events thanContinue reading “This Little ‘Piggy’ Gets Some Revenge”
‘Caligula’ A Pornographic Biopic Of Epic Awfulness, Filth And Horror
Caligula is a horror movie. It’s a lot of things, but good is not one of them. It’s pornography and by that I mean, it’s the textbook definition. I’m not talking about all the scenes of nudity or unsimulated sexual scenes are meant to be arousing. It’s the definition of pornography as having no artisticContinue reading “‘Caligula’ A Pornographic Biopic Of Epic Awfulness, Filth And Horror”
‘Rosaline’ Retelling Of Romeo And Juliet Probably Looked Better On Paper
In 1966, Tom Stoppard wrote Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead taking two supporting characters from Hamlet and making them the protagonists. In 1990, he turned it into a movie that had some charm but seemed to waddle through its premise after the halfway mark. Did it play as a parody or was it supposed toContinue reading “‘Rosaline’ Retelling Of Romeo And Juliet Probably Looked Better On Paper”
Tubi Isn’t The Problem, It Just Raised The Red Flags Of Domestic Violence
The Super Bowl has become more popular for its commercials. Some are memorable such as Budweiser’s “What’s Up?!” commercial. Others fails miserably. Remember Mountain Dew’s awful PuppetMonkeyBaby? The ads space costs more for 60 seconds than the budget for many movies. So, if you have $10-20 million and want to get the word out allContinue reading “Tubi Isn’t The Problem, It Just Raised The Red Flags Of Domestic Violence”
The Failed Romance Between Poe And Finn In ‘The Force Awakens’
When Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens premiered during the Christmas season of 2015, most people were anticipating the next level in the saga. George Lucas had sold Lucasfilms and the properties to Disney in 2012 for over $4 billion. J.J. Abrams was the writer and director and all we knew was that theContinue reading “The Failed Romance Between Poe And Finn In ‘The Force Awakens’”
‘Simpsons’ Gave Us One Of The Best Valentine’s Show Ever
I haven’t really watched The Simpsons on a regular basis for years. I grew up on it and seeing what it is now just doesn’t interested me anymore. Like Star Wars, I guess people of different ages have their own favorites during the 30-plus years. It was about 30 years ago when during the fourthContinue reading “‘Simpsons’ Gave Us One Of The Best Valentine’s Show Ever”
He Gets Us, He Gets Us Not
The Super Bowl commercial He Gets Us sends a message that even Christians, especially the ones who were behind it, apparently don’t seem to get. One of the financial backers is the family that owns Hobby Lobby which just less than two years ago, ran a fuill-page ad calling for a Christian-run government. One commercialContinue reading “He Gets Us, He Gets Us Not”
‘Till’ Has A Great Performance That’s Overshadowed By Tired Cliches, Tropes
I’ve always been of the opinion that a subject matter shouldn’t warrant universal praise. Till has a 98 percent rating of 172 reviews on RottenTomatoes.com. On imdb.com, user reviews average 7.2. The list of awards, recognition and nominations for the movie and its lead actress Daniel Deadwyler are way too much to list. Yet, IContinue reading “‘Till’ Has A Great Performance That’s Overshadowed By Tired Cliches, Tropes”
