Cocaine Bear (2023)
Bear Scat Cocaine Bear should have been an outrageous, silly comedy film. It should have accepted the fact that it is a film loosely based upon an already insane true story and expanded that insanity to the Nth degree. It should have been full of practical effects that had audiences roll their eyes with joy.Continue reading “Cocaine Bear (2023)”
Thirtieth Anniversary Triple Threat!
“Alright, alright, alright!” Everybody loves a good movie. This year, 2023, marks the thirtieth anniversary of three of my favorite films. Those three films are Jurassic Park, Dazed And Confused, and Tombstone. Jurassic Park is arguably my favorite film of all time. Dazed And Confused is my favorite coming-of-age film. I consider Tombstone to beContinue reading “Thirtieth Anniversary Triple Threat!”
Throwback Thursday: Edge Of The Axe (1988)
“Where are you, Gerald?“ I have to admit that 1988’s Edge Of The Axe never hit my radar until a few days ago. I was completely unaware that the film even existed until it was recommended to me on Tubi. I was intrigued by the look of the slasher in the film and was familiarContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Edge Of The Axe (1988)”
Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)
“My name’s not Kerri Tate.” With a litany of disappointing and/or critically panned sequels following Halloween II (1981), the Halloween franchise was pretty much dead in the mid-1990s. Hoping to possibly resurrect the franchise and also to cash in on the resurgence of the slasher film thanks to the success of Scream (1996), Halloween H20:Continue reading “Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)”
Scream VI (2023)
It’s okay, Sid. This review is spoiler free! Scream VI sliced and diced its way into theaters last week and I was fortunate enough to see it on Friday with my daughter. She’s a massive Scream franchise fan and was looking forward to the latest installment in the series as was I. We saw anContinue reading “Scream VI (2023)”
M3GAN: Unrated (2023)
“She’s More Than Just A Toy….She’s A Part Of The Family.” With Blumhouse and Atomic Monster producing, Gerard Johnstone directing, and Akela Cooper and James Wan penning the tale, M3GAN had a solid foundation for its vision of AI horror. The original PG-13 version of the film was premiered in December of 2022 in LosContinue reading “M3GAN: Unrated (2023)”

Throwback Thursday: Legend (1985)
“What is light without dark?” Ridley Scott has directed some of the biggest feature films of all time including Alien, Gladiator, The Martian, Blade Runner, and Thelma & Louise. Most of his films have been financially successful, including those that failed to impress critics. One of the few films that Scott directed (and developed theContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Legend (1985)”
Cult Classic: Troll (1986)
“That’s my job, kiddo.” June Lockhart and Noah Hathaway team up to battle the evil Torok in 1986’s Troll. Opinions on the film range from it being one of the worst films ever made to being a cult classic. It’s a cult classic in my opinion, and there are plenty of reasons to watch it.Continue reading “Cult Classic: Troll (1986)”
