In his remake of Cape Fear, Martin Scorsese had Juliette Lewis figuratively shoot fire from her loins. In Raw, Eddie Murphy talked about it. But only the Hungarians have the genital fortitude to show you a guy actually shooting fire from his dick, and it's… Continue reading
The remake trend continues ever onward, and like The Blob (remade!) it devours all things in its path, even Nicolas Roeg’s very weird 1970s David Bowie movie The Man Who Fell to Earth. Based on a novel, the story was actually retold a couple of years back in… Continue reading
It’s a big comeback for Sylvester Stallone. His Rocky VI (to be called, classily, Rocky Balboa) is about to start shooting. And once he’s done with that he’s moving on to – believe it or not – Rambo IV. The plot for Rambo IV is pure George Takei. In it, John… Continue reading
There are some days when the movie news just makes me so happy that I could get up, dance and sing. That’s the Bollywood in me – and it’s soon going to be the Bollywood in Oh Daesu. You thought that only the USA made ill-advised remakes of recent foreign… Continue reading

Welcome to week two of Thor’s Creature Comics Feature, the second in a three-part series which looks down the (recent) annals of Thor's reviewing history to remind you of some of the best, the worst, and those inbetween comics which ever so conveniently fit… Continue reading
I don’t know that I can ever truly forgive Nicolas Cage. I remember when this Coppola Clansman was so into his art and craft that he ate a live cockroach for a very, very shitty horror film. Then he began taking roles in obnoxious action films halfway through… Continue reading
The first Fantastic Four movie, which ended up being way more fun than I ever expected, especially after suffering through as much of Taxi as I could tolerate, was originally slotted for a July 4th release date to take advantage of its title's numericality… Continue reading
I sort of felt bad for Verbinski at this junket. The man took a short time away from the back-to-back productions of Pirates 2 and 3, which I keep hearing is totally chaotic (they don't really have a script for 3 apparently), to promote The Weather Man here… Continue reading
