SLUG IT OUT

James Gunn’s Slither delivers. It’s hilarious and it’s really icky – my date to the premiere in LA last week almost threw up (which left poor Mr. Gunn a little disappointed). Slither is a complete blast, a gooey helping of horror fun. Expect plenty of… Continue reading →

WELCOME BACK, KUBE

Years ago when I’d spin Ice Cube’s AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted or The Predator, I got the impression that he possessed a significant amount of what is commonly referred to as “cred”. However, since then Cube has evolved into a “playa”, with his eye strictly on… Continue reading →

Terrorism: it's still really good for business! And it seems to have drawn director Ridley Scott's constantly oscillating attention span. Scott has apparently (momentarily) decided to focus on the spy thriller Penetration, a non-porn spy thriller that I… Continue reading →

This sort of political material is really Devin's forte, but he's currently on "working vacation" in sunny California, so I'll have to act as proxy pundit for the moment. Now that he's won acclaim for his Racism for Dummies story, Crash director Paul Haggis… Continue reading →

REDIRTY REDOZEN

The Dirty Dozen is one of my all-time favorite movies evar. Seeing it on local UHF stations as a kid (on what seemed like a weekly basis) served as a gateway drug to several cinematic subgenres like war movies, “tough guy” flicks and “guys on a mission”… Continue reading →

PIXAR RAT CATCHES BIRD

Now that Pixar is settled into their new (old) home at Disney, they’re firing up the hardware on new projects, but also wisely sticking with what works. Their latest rendered blockbuster Ratatouille has hooked director Brad Bird, who’s already a solid… Continue reading →
