Gutterballs is Canuxploitation at its filthiest. And I mean that in a good way. I mean, not many horror films can advertise death by a maniac with a bowling bag for a mask as he smothers teengagers performing 69 on each other with their own private parts. Choke on this! But this film can and ...

I’m just going to cut to the chase with this review. Bloodshot is NOT a bad movie.

Wilson’s background in ...

If a white van ever rolls up to your local neighborhood hospital and the drivers, wearing all sorts of fowl-themed masks, start throwing out wounded people you probably should keep to your own business . . . or, if you are feeling creative, grab your phone, point it at the action, and hit record. ...

The new comedy starring Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson called The Hustle is an almost identical remake of the 1988 classic comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels which starred Michael Caine and Steve Martin - itself a remake of Marlon Brando’s Bedtime Story. I say “almost” because ...

The first horror icon of cinema has returned! Or is The Golem, thanks to its design and its use of white magic, the first cinematic superhero? I guess it comes down to your interpretation of the events in this legendary silent film. But there is NO arguing of its influence. From The Incredible Hulk ...
