Here is everything CHUD has to offer starting with the newest content, going all the way back to our humble beginnings.

PHOTO OF FLUX

Dear CHUD readers, this could well be one of the last times I update this site (stop cheering). This weekend I am flying to Berlin (the one in Germany) to visit the set of the feature film adaptation of Aeon Flux. I fear flying like a worm fears the early bird, and this will be … Continue reading

SMOKE UP FOR A SEQUEL

If you want to see a Harold and Kumar 2: Harold and Kumar Go to Amsterdam (where else?), you better buy the DVD. That’s going to be the deciding factor on a sequel, says director Danny Leiner. "That is the plan. The writers were hired to write that sequel. And I think it’s going to … Continue reading

HOORAY FOR AARON ECKHART

I count myself as a strident Aaron Eckhart partisan, and I wince when I look back at some of the roles he has taken in recent years. Suspect Zero alone is enough to give you the stigmata. In fact, a look at his CV (how British of me!) reveals that the guy hasn’t been in … Continue reading

LEAST LIKELY MOVIE TIE-IN EVER!

This gives me hope. Now I can resume praying by might nightstand for a line of Barfly action figures as well as the action playset for The Accused. There is a toy line coming for Walter Hill’s 1979 cult classic The Warriors. I’m not just doing this news item as an opportunity to crack silly … Continue reading

THE MAN IN THE RUBBER MASK

Today’s edition of Entertainment Weekly will premiere a shot of Dr. Doom from the upcoming Fantastic Four film. This isn’t a publicity shot but an actual picture of the character as he appears in the film. I hate to pile onto this film – the last time I heard buzz this bad the killer bees … Continue reading

INTERVIEW: NICOLAS CAGE

Nicolas Cage has not done traditional press rounds in at least the five years I’ve been a journalist. He’s always pleasant on the red carpet, answering a question or two if he makes it to your spot on the line, but no roundtable interviews. Only for Sonny, the film he directed, did he do three … Continue reading

REVIEW: NATIONAL TREASURE

A sloppy mix of legend and half researched fact, yet another teaming between Nic Cage and Jerry Bruckheimer, a movie full of slow motion and blaring “excitement” music, National Treasure is exactly the sort of film I hate. But somehow, instead of finding myself gnawing at my ankle as the movie went on I was … Continue reading

BAYWATCH FEVER?

I don’t even know how to respond to the news that Cabin Fever filmmaker Eli Roth is co-producing the Baywatch movie. I mean, I know enough about the film business (I think) to realize that not every producer on a project is actually doing much of anything behind the scenes, but from an interview with … Continue reading

V FOR VERY SOON TO FILM

How much does it suck that Alan Moore’s seminal graphic novel from twenty years ago, V for Vendetta, seems more relevant to us in America now then ever before? The story of an England that is under serious repression and the lone man who dresses up in a funny costume to battle the Thatcher-ite forces … Continue reading

SAY HALO, SAY GOODBYE

It’s a game beloved by CHUD honcho Nick Nunziata, the Atlanta contingent and a kazillion other gamers, but not me, who got bored halfway through the single-player game, have no interest in fighting others on 1/4th of my television, and feel first-person shooters are meant to be played with a mouse and keyboard instead of … Continue reading
