Kate Beckinsale is back and more of a gorgeous badass than ever before! In Underworld: Awakening, she reprises her role as Selene, a vampire with a cold gaze and enough cold-blooded ruthlessness to keep an entire meat freezer cool. In this fourth installment of the Underworld series, the humans have discovered that vampires and Lycans [...]

I know there are a lot of die hard original Conan fans out there, but I am not one of them. I love watching Arnold Schwarzenegger in an action film just as much as the next person, but I wouldn’t classify Conan the Barbarian (1982) as a true ACTION film. I have no nostalgia connected [...]

You know a movie is weird when the reel gets messed up and starts playing upside down and backwards, but everyone thinks it’s just part of the film! That’s exactly what happened at ActionFest during the first screening of Hobo with a Shotgun. Think about that!
What once started out as a fake trailer for Quentin [...]

First off, I love the original Scream trilogy, especially the first one. So there is a part of me that is glad to see that there’s possibly another trilogy on the way even though there is absolutely NO NEED to have another film. The original Scream trilogy wrapped up so perfectly! But they did it [...]

After the showing of Super at SXSW, writer/director James Gunn, and stars Ellen Page and Rainn Wilson stuck around for a Q & A with the audience. With the first question, we got to see Wilson go on a rant. A word of advice: If you ever talk/interview Rainn Wilson, don’t ask him what superpower [...]

This year’s SXSW Film Festival brought forth a dark, action comedy by the name of Super. This film has a fantastic cast and was written by James Gunn, the writer of my favorite zombie flick, Dawn of the Dead (2004). The cast and writer alone had me Jonesing to see this film so it was [...]

After watching Drive Angry 3D, I’ve come to realize that Nicolas Cage’s character, Milton, is really a metaphor for Nicolas Cage. It doesn’t matter what you do to kill Milton, he just keeps coming. It doesn’t matter how hard his film bombs or what critics say about it, Cage will keep making funny and ridiculous, [...]
