Sasquatch Sunset
“Hwoop!” The Zellner brothers give Bigfoot their offbeat treatment in 2024’s Sasquatch Sunset. Written and co-directed by David Zellner, the film follows the lives of four Sasquatch over the course of a year. It’s a lot like watching a ninety-minute version of Wild America without Marty Stouffer narrating the action. There is also a lotContinue reading “Sasquatch Sunset”
Jurassic Park Amber Collection: Dr. Alan Grant (2021)
“After careful consideration, I have decided not to endorse your park.” If Dr. Ian Malcolm was the rock star in the original Jurassic Park film, Dr. Alan Grant was the record producer that kept a level head when the band (or, in this case, the park) lost its way. Dr. Grant was always aware ofContinue reading “Jurassic Park Amber Collection: Dr. Alan Grant (2021)”
CyPhaCon 2024!
My Local Convention I’ve been attending CyPhaCon for many years now and it was great to return to this local event yet again. This year, CyPhaCon featured Edward James Olmos, Barry Lowin, Mela Lee, and tons of anime voice actors for fans to meet, take photos, and get autographs. I was there as a representativeContinue reading “CyPhaCon 2024!”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label Owlman
“As long as there’s a Batman…..there will be an Owlman. His true dark reflection.” While I’ve often listed Black Manta as one of the most wicked villains in the DC Universe, Owlman, Thomas Wayne, Jr., might be one of the few villains to match him. Owlman is Batman of Earth 3 (at least in thisContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label Owlman”

Lisa Frankenstein (2024)
“I have The Cure…..” Written by Diablo Cody (Juno, Jennifer’s Body), helmed by director Zelda Williams (her feature-length debut) and featuring a cast loaded with talent, 2024’s Lisa Frankenstein has a lot going for it. Unfortunately, the writing and direction just don’t click for some reason, despite the best efforts of a very enjoyable cast.Continue reading “Lisa Frankenstein (2024)”
Truth Seekers (2020)
“How can I put a Smyle on your face?” With the one-two comedic punch of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost at the helm, 2020’s Truth Seekers combines supernatural horror, science fiction, and comedy in order to create a really enjoyable series. Written by Pegg, Frost, James Serafinowicz, and Nat Saunders, the series follows the adventuresContinue reading “Truth Seekers (2020)”
Cult Classic: Killer Workout (1987)
“She was so pretty…..” Aerobics were all the rage in the 1980s. Slasher films were insanely popular as well. 1987’s Killer Workout (also known as Aerobicide) fused them together in the hopes of raking in the big bucks. The result was a ho-hum slasher flick featuring a killer with a fondness for laundry pins, endlessContinue reading “Cult Classic: Killer Workout (1987)”

This year’s event featured DJ Qualls, Kim Rhodes, Kevin Nash, Cerina Vincent, Nakia Burrise,Continue reading “Louisiana Comic Con 2024!”
