“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.

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)”

McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Black Manta
“I’m going to kill Aquaman and destroy everything he holds dear.” One of the most vicious villains in all of DC Comics in my opinion, Black Manta came to life in the first Aquaman film and makes his triumphant return in Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom. Portrayed by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in both films, MantaContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Black Manta”

Dark Harvest (2023)
“To a violent world with me.” Loosely based upon the 2006 Norman Partridge novel of the same name, 2023’s Dark Harvest is a decent little thriller that blends stories such as The Lottery with supernatural horror like Night Of The Scarecrow and Pumpkinhead. It tells the story of a small Midwestern town wherein a sinisterContinue reading “Dark Harvest (2023)”
