Longlegs Review
In the early 2000s, movie studios started using Alternate Reality Games to promote their upcoming movies. I was lucky to participate in a few of these games for The Dark Knight, The Amazing Spider-Man, and Tron Legacy. Each game consisted of a series of clues found online or at certain real-world locations. As the clues…

MaXXXine Review
Back in 2022 Ti West gave us X, which was a movie about an adult film crew filming in an old farm. One incident led to another and X was a horror movie that we did not know we needed at that time. The film was suspenseful, gory and introduced us to the character of…

Despicable Me 4
It’s been seven years since the last Despicable Me movie and during that time we had one Minion movie: Minions: The Rise of Gru in 2022. While this gap between the Despicable Me movies Despicable Me 4 feels like no time has been lost, Gru, voiced by Steve Carell, and the minions are back to…

We Got it All on UHF
I remember the first time I saw that “Weird Al” Yankovic was going to be in a movie I was excited. This guy who made parody songs was going to be in a movie and it was going to be as weird and silly as he was. UHF was not only weird but I think…

Daddio Review
One thing about me is that once I get comfortable and start talking, I might talk a little too much. When my daughter was born I used to do Lyft to make extra money and enjoyed talking to my passengers as I drove them to their destination. It was great to learn about who they…

Ghostbusters Frozen Empire Comes Home
Back in March we were able to see Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire in theaters and wrote about our thoughts here. While we did enjoy the movie we were already thinking about what the special features on the home release would be. Starting tomorrow you will not only be able to enjoy this movie in your home…

The Bikeriders Review
As a member of society, we want to belong to something. Whether it is the local gym, a parent group, or hanging out with people who share similar interests, we want to feel like we belong. This is what Johnny, played by Tom Hardy, did in The Bikeriders. He created a motorcycle club where like-minded…

Tuesday Review
In many movies, Death is portrayed as a figure in a black cloak. This figure slowly stalks those it seeks and takes them from this Earth in a way they deem fit. Director Daina O. Pusić’s version of death is a Macaw that can shrink to the size of a chapstick and grow to be…

Fresh Kills Review
There is a moment in Fresh Kills when Rose Larusso, played magnificently by Emily Bader, feels the walls are closing in on her. All of the thoughts and bad feelings about her family have come to light and she is out in the open when it happens. We feel her panic, embarrassment, and fear as…

Ultraman Rising Review
Growing up I remember watching Spectraman, Ultraman, and reruns of Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot. These shows introduced me to not only a different style of show but also Kaijus! While I would watch Godzilla movies when they were shown every now and then on Saturdays, these shows had something new every episode and…
