What’s in a name? Is a good movie with a bad name still a good movie? It is, and while I Like Killing Flies has about the worst name since The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Crazy Mixed Up Zombies, it’s still a very good, very… Continue reading
I'm not a very big fan of Infernal Affairs. Shoot me. Please don't. To me it was an above average flick that was made beloved more for the fact that it was as polished as a Hollywood picture but it wasn't made in Hollywood than because it's some latter day… Continue reading
Scarlett Johansson is not lacking attention or press coverage. In fact, she’s reached a point where there’s as much talk about her talent as her hotness. Don’t get me wrong, her looks definitely merit the magazine covers and commercial endorsements, but her… Continue reading
Last week I sat down in Vegas with Brett Ratner as he was doing a cameo on X3 writer Zak Penn’s new improv poker comedy, The Grand. I ended up talking with Ratner for well over an hour, and the conversation is funny, fascinating and revealing. You have to… Continue reading
I love the Mayans. Love them to death. Thankfully they don't know me or sill roam the Earth or else they'd have me sliced and diced and on my way into the sacrifice dumpster faster than you can say "Cortes was a prick". I also love the really crazy things… Continue reading

After what seems like a decade in the making, Brian DePalma's hard-boiled thriller The Black Dahlia is finally making its way to theaters. Let's hope the lengthy delay is not an indication of the film's quality (maybe you saw DePalma's Mission to Mars or… Continue reading
Once again we’ve been sent a clip from G4’s Filter featuring Yours Truly. I wish they would send over a clip with Nick in it, but I just have what they send. I do have all the CHUD appearances on Filter on my TiVo, and if I can ever figure out how to get them… Continue reading
***WARNING***Good day. Since so much of our site's content is lost in other designs, hampered by ad code messing with the pages, or surrounded by gas and low on evil, I'm going to start reprinting them for new eyes. You'll see classic Smilin' Jack Ruby, stuff… Continue reading
Latino Review has scored some pictures from the set of Michael Bay’s Transformers (and for those of you who read that I would be doing a set visit in our first Sewer Chewer newsletter – it got cancelled for logistical reasons. Hopefully it’s being… Continue reading
