‘Cobra’ Has Bite To Slithering Story

From his start as a struggling actor in Roger Corman-produced cheap exploitation movies to an Oscar winning movie in a matter of a few years is the type of Cinderella story that most actors dream of.   Yet, the problem with Sylvester Stallone has always been his inflated ego. Many times in his career spanning back to the late 1960s when he appeared as extrasContinue reading “‘Cobra’ Has Bite To Slithering Story”

‘Nobody 2’ Not Just Electric Boogaloo

When Nobody was released four years ago, it seemed to be a breath of fresh air people needed after a year of the Covid-19 pandemic. It was just a silly action thriller starring Bob Odenkirk as Hutch Mansell a former government assassin turned everyday man trying to live a “normal life” in the suburbs.   Yet the humdrum monotony has put a strainContinue reading “‘Nobody 2’ Not Just Electric Boogaloo”

‘The Hateful Eight’ 10 Years Later

Quentin Tarantino has been making a lot of news lately with what some could consider “Yelling at the clouds” moments. His lasted “Get off my lawn!” rants have been directed toward actor Paul Dano. I’ll admit, he does kind of suck in a lot of roles. Some actors just can’t hack it in versatile roles. HeContinue reading “‘The Hateful Eight’ 10 Years Later”

Udo Kier Sunk His Teeth, Making Bones Into Andy Warhol’s Horror Flicks

Sydney Sweeney Not Playing Into Their Reindeer Games And Good For Her

I’m trying to change up the content on my blog but there are a few things recently that have pissed me off.   First off is how people are trying to make Sydney Sweeney out to be a white supremacist just because people think there’s more meaning to an American Eagle advertisement she did earlier this year. It’s a play on how “genes” andContinue reading “Sydney Sweeney Not Playing Into Their Reindeer Games And Good For Her”

‘Good Boy’ Is A Good Movie

A movie like Good Boy asks you to put yourself in the mind of a dog. And that might be why so many people haven’t and won’t like the movie.   The buzz around the movie is that it’s told from the perspective of Indy, a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. When the movie begins, Indy is just resting in an apartment with his humanContinue reading “‘Good Boy’ Is A Good Movie”

‘The Naked Gun’ Hits The Target

Parody movies haven’t been too popular for well over a decade. And you can thank the horrible filmmaking duo of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer for that. When Scary Movie became a big hit during the summer of 2000, they had the clout as the co-writers of a hit movie.  Except there was one problem. They were co-writers in credit only. According to Marlon Wayans, who co-starredContinue reading “‘The Naked Gun’ Hits The Target”

‘Wild At Heart’ A Love Story Set On A Hellish Journey Into Darkness

When Diane Ladd was approached by David Lynch to play Marietta, an antagonistic character in the 1990 movie Wild at Heart, she said Lynch wanted her to be a hot momma. Ladd was in her mid-50s at the time and women that age and at that time weren’t considered “hot.”   Yet, it became one of the three roles LaddContinue reading “‘Wild At Heart’ A Love Story Set On A Hellish Journey Into Darkness”

‘Halloween’ Thorne Trilogy Is More Of A Trick Than A Treat

I had heard about the Halloween movies but never really got into them until Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers came out. We watched it at my aunt and cousins house who themselves might have lived in a haunted house out in the country. The end of a young Danielle Harris as Jamie LloydContinue reading “‘Halloween’ Thorne Trilogy Is More Of A Trick Than A Treat”

You Will Like ‘John Candy: I Like Me’

John Candy would’ve been 75 this Halloween if he hadn’t passed away in 1994 at 43. In death, Candy achieved that type of stardom and legacy that most actors and celebrities want but rarely achieve when they’re alive. During the last few years he was alive, Candy appeared in a lot of movies, either inContinue reading “You Will Like ‘John Candy: I Like Me’”
