Dylan Dog: Dead of Night (2011) – Dead on Arrival?

Posted on May 2, 2011 by Action Flick Chick

…sucks as an action film! Don’t get confused by its label of ‘action comedy horror’ film, because it ain’t action, and it’s not all that much of a comedy horror. It’s mostly a paint-by-the-numbers detective story. Dylan Dog (Brandon Routh) is a private investigator of sorts who is well known to the undead creatures of New Orleans. When Elizabeth’s (Anita Briem) father is killed by a werewolf, she calls on Dylan Dog and his assistant Marcus (Sam Hun… Continue reading →

Jennifer’s Body (2009): The Not-So-Pretty Side of Megan Fox

I did find some of it amusing, though, particularly the open harshness of Jennifer.

Like when the teacher was talking about how tragic it was that so-and-… Continue reading →
