“It’s Just A Game” Daniel Emery Taylor (The Return of Swamp Thing) took on the duties of writing, producing, directing, and, yep, even acting in Debtor Entertainment’s It’s Just A Game. The film’s teaser trailer was recently released (on Friday the 13th of April) and being a fan of independent film, I have to admitContinue reading ““None Of This Is Real…..””

Focus On: Michael Keaton
The Ghost With The Most In this Focus On segment, I visit the wonderfully insane talent that is Michael Keaton. If you grew up in the 1980’s like me, you are well aware of the comedic excellence of Michael Keaton. You are already familiar with his string of popular comedies such as Night Shift, JohnnyContinue reading “Focus On: Michael Keaton”
Throwback Thursday: The Monster Squad!
Remember these guys??? It’s hard to believe that this film is over thirty years old. Featuring Andre Gower as Sean, leader of the Monster Squad, and Duncan Regehr as Count Dracula, leader of the monsters, this film didn’t make much noise at the movies but eventually gained a cult following (myself included). It also featuredContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: The Monster Squad!”
Not Your Daddy’s Oklahoma!
Sheol, OK I enjoy watching independent film productions. They find brilliant ways to use their limited resources to give the viewer the best possible version of their particular vision. Independent horror is particularly interesting to me because these films often push boundaries and explore dark corners of the mind that large studios won’t risk fundingContinue reading “Not Your Daddy’s Oklahoma!”
Who Knows….
What Evil Lurks In The Hearts Of Men? Having recently revisited The Rocketeer and The Phantom, two 1990’s films set in the 1930’s, it’s only natural that I also take a look at 1994’s The Shadow, an Alec Baldwin vehicle that had high hopes just like those films did but ultimately fell flat at theContinue reading “Who Knows….”

Each post will briefly introduce readers to the artist, and hopefully encourage them to seek out more of the artist’s work.Continue reading “Focus On: Alan Cumming”
Pirates, Steampunk, Wrasslin’ and More!
Lake Charles, LA Since 1957, pirates have taken over the city of Lake Charles, LA, for one of the largest festivals in the state. Originally called Contraband Days, the festival grew from a one day event into a two week festival that included speed boat races, concerts from major artists in multiple genres, a carnival,Continue reading “Pirates, Steampunk, Wrasslin’ and More!”
A Split Decision
Aboard The Cloverfield Station The Cloverfield Paradox is a paradox in more ways than one. For starters, it’s production was full of scheduling changes, story additions, ties to the Cloverfield universe supposedly shoehorned into the film, production company changes, etc. While these types of changes are par for the course in many major films, TCPContinue reading “A Split Decision”

In this post I’ll be listing a few of these conventions that will be hitting us within the next few months. I’ll also let you know ifContinue reading “Gulf South Convention Roundup!”

Orcs and Elves and Fairies, Oh My! Veteran LAPD officer Daryl Ward (Will Smith) is forced to partner up with the first Orc officer in the country, Nick Jakoby (the completely unrecognizable Joel Edgerton), and ends up taking on a Dark Elf and some bad cops in Netflix’s most expensive original film to date, Bright.Continue reading “Shining “Bright””
