Note: This focus will be on horror/thrillers that have featured the LGBTQIA community and/or have themes as June is Pride Month. In Scream VI, they discuss that Psycho II is an underrated horror classic and I agree. I must admit when I first watched it back in 1980s, I missed a few things I caughtContinue reading “‘Psycho II’ Is An Underrated Horror Classic After 40 Years”

‘The Birdcage’ Spread The Wings Of LGBTQIA Humor To The Masses
When The Birdcage won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast, a good friend of mine and I weren’t too happy. We were both big Fargo fans and we wanted it to win, but it wasn’t even nominated in that category. We knew Fargo was going to get screwed over byContinue reading “‘The Birdcage’ Spread The Wings Of LGBTQIA Humor To The Masses”
‘Love & Death’ Delves Further Into Texas Homicide Case That Won’t Die
Hollywood is an incestuous industry. There’s always more than one TV show or movie following a certain premise. Disaster movies about volcanoes, comets and asteroids and biopics about Christopher Columbus and Steve Prefontaine have been making the roads for decades. And you can see similarities between plots that don’t look like they should be similarContinue reading “‘Love & Death’ Delves Further Into Texas Homicide Case That Won’t Die”
‘Dungeon & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ Will Steal All Your Attention
I never got into the Dungeon & Dragons role-playing game. I did watch the Saturday morning cartoon which seemed to star half the cast of Eight is Enough. But when the 2000 movie came out, I watched it one and a half times. Marlon Wayans’ role was akin to a fantasy version of Stepin FetchetContinue reading “‘Dungeon & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ Will Steal All Your Attention”
‘Muppets Mayhem’ Is One Heckuva Jam
I remember reading someone saying that when they went to go see The Muppets, the 2011 movie, they were looking around the theater only to discover more adults in the audience than kids. I noticed the same thing in 2007 when I saw The Simpsons movie on opening night. People grew up on the Muppets,Continue reading “‘Muppets Mayhem’ Is One Heckuva Jam”
Please Remember Those No Longer Here This Memorial Day
Today is Memorial Day. One of my peeves is when people say “Happy Memorial Day.” There’s nothing to be happy about people who were killing in action, or died as the result of their war wounds. And I’m talking about those who became addicted to alcohol or drugs to help with their pain. I’m alsoContinue reading “Please Remember Those No Longer Here This Memorial Day”
It’s Going To Be A Long Campaign Season (Ay, Dios Mio!)
While watching a Congressional hearing where Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) asked the Democrats to remember the “decorum” of the House of Representatives as House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), someone online commented it was started to appear like the British Parliamant. While I’m admit, we’re sliding into the United Kingdom’s mentality of “Not tooContinue reading “It’s Going To Be A Long Campaign Season (Ay, Dios Mio!)”
Long Live The Queen Of Rock
I was saddened to hear about the passing of Tina Turner this last week. She was known for her electifying on-stage performance as well as a singing voice that no one could ever duplicate. But for many other people, she was known as Aunty Entity the ruthless leader of Bartertown in the barren wasteland ofContinue reading “Long Live The Queen Of Rock”
‘Money Shot’ Blows A Good Topic
I want to make a documentary about documentary filmmakers and their desire to always focus on the bad part of the porn industry. With the exception of Inside Deep Throat and the Pornucopia series that was on HBO back in the mid-2000s, there’s often a Puritan conservative slant against the industry. Money Shot: The PornHubContinue reading “‘Money Shot’ Blows A Good Topic”
Three Cheers For ‘The Man With Two Brains’
The Mad Scientest Trope has been around since Mary Shelly penned Frankenstein. Robert Louis Stevenson also explored the trope with The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine and The Island of Dr. Moureau were classics about scientists testing the limits of how far they could go. Even CaptainContinue reading “Three Cheers For ‘The Man With Two Brains’”
