They Cloned Tyrone is a return to form for Netflix. It’s a sci-fi comedy with an outrageously absurd plot that works so well. This is what The Blackening should have been. It’s a movie that gives us characters so colorful that the actors have so much fun playing them. And when you’re casting John Boyega,Continue reading “‘They Cloned Tyrone’ Funky Freaky Fun”

The Strange Case of Gypsy-Rose Blanchard
The Gypsy Rose Blanchard case is one of the most strangest ever. Was she a cold-blooded murderer or was she just a person who didn’t see any way else out. She only had a second-grade education at the time her then-boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn fatally stabbed her mother, Dee Dee.

‘Straw Dogs’ Has A Better Bite Over Its Original’s Meager Bark
Filmmaker Jean-Luc Goddard once said, “The way to criticize a film is to make another film.” In 1971, when Sam Peckinpah’s Straw Dogs was released during the Christmas holiday season, it shocked audiences and divided them. Based on the novel The Siege at Trencher’s Farm, it starred Dustin Hoffman as a meager intelligent mathematician whoContinue reading “‘Straw Dogs’ Has A Better Bite Over Its Original’s Meager Bark”
‘Ted’ Works Best As Sitcom Parody But Still Feels A Bit Overstuffed
There was a joke on a Family Guy episode in which they did some Seth MacFarlane self-parody with the line is “Yeah, he watched TV in the 80s. We get it.” When Family Guy burst on the scene in 1999 after the Super Bowl, it reflected a growing change in movies and TV that decadeContinue reading “‘Ted’ Works Best As Sitcom Parody But Still Feels A Bit Overstuffed”
‘Tetris’ Still Scores Despite Over-Layered Storyline

It was a simple game and it was developed by a Russian using parenthesis on his home computer. So, how did something that lookedContinue reading “‘Tetris’ Still Scores Despite Over-Layered Storyline”
Oscars Have A History Of Not Nominating “Sure Things”
I remember less than 30 years ago, they were discussing how they would find five actresses to nominate for the Best Lead Actress category. In the last few years, they’ve had too many, it’s hard to limit. Last year, I though Mia Goth should’ve been nominated for Pearl and Aubrey Plaza should’ve been nominated forContinue reading “Oscars Have A History Of Not Nominating “Sure Things””
‘Still’ Is Fox’s Moving Retrospect
Every decade seems to have the handful of actors who pretty much owned the time. Jack Nicholson, along with Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro and Faye Dunaway were the actors of the 1970s. The 1990s had Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington. In the 1980s, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone were competing for the actionContinue reading “‘Still’ Is Fox’s Moving Retrospect”
Soar High “Flyboy”
In the annals of classic horror actors, you might not expect people to know the name David Emge. He only appeared in about five movies and hasn’t appeared in a movie since 1992 Hellmaster. But it was his role as one of the leads in the horror-satire classic Dawn of the Dead released in 1978Continue reading “Soar High “Flyboy””
