Sometimes surreal horror involves a gnarly sex scene on a rotating bed. Other times it involves knifing someone in the face through a pillow while they sleep. You know what they say, though, if you die in your dreams then you die in real life. For the dude at the center of this ...

I Kill Giants now sits at the very top of my favorite films (so far) released this year. I doubt I will be forgetting it or its imaginative landscape by December when voting season rolls around. This magical movie is so much more than words could ever express. Please ...

When most people hear the word “history,” they think of a dry, boring subject full of dull facts to memorize. But that’s not the impression you get from Denial, based on the true story of a historian in the 1990s who takes on a Holocaust denier in court. Deborah Lipstadt (Rachel Wiesz) ...

Describe to me the most boring movie ever. Go ahead. I will wait. Is it 90-minutes of a man staring at paint drying on a wall? Do people pass in front of that wall trying to get him to look away? Does he? No? Okay. Whatever. Sounds pretty dull, but if there happens to be a panther ...

Decapitated chicken heads, neurotic brides, and a creepy killer who is handy at fixing cars, soaping up babes in the shower, and slitting throats. Sounds like a damn good Friday night film pairing to me. With this release from Code Red the 70’s drive-in twofer continues! ...

Stud alert! Stud alert! If you are hot, young, and hung then come on in! That’s the party call in this sex comedy that stars Lisa Hartman, Russell Todd, Lorna Luft, Wendy Schaal and Lynn-Holly Johnson. Critics might have panned this Spring Break-themed comedy, as outrageous ...

There is but one artist who could create a passionately unsettling love story between a mute woman and a freakishly real-looking merman and make it feel so entirely personal that it practically drips with relatable emotion. One artist. And he is the mighty Guillermo del Toro ...
