What a month! Not only did I get to extol the virtues of The Lost Boys on UHD this Halloween, but what should arrive in the mail but Tom Holland ’s equally classic 1985 vampire flick, Fright Night . T...

1989 would see the last of a trilogy of films that Halloween fans now dub The Thorn Trilogy. This would be the last Halloween film to feature the character of Jamie Lloyd (not played by Danielle Harri...

There are literally thousands of vampire films out there. In the sea of bloodsucker tales, it is truly a special occurrence when one stands above the crowd. Stepping away from any genre at all, it’s e...

Sparkly Batman got game! I am being facetious. Robert Pattiso n has long since proven himself as a more than capable actor, brave and disparate in his choices, and more than capable. Of course his ann...

As a life-long DC fan, I have felt a little bit like a diehard football fan that backs his underperforming team, no matter what. It both evokes a sense of pride and of blind foolishness, when, no matt...

In annuls of home media, there are few titles regarded as legendary as The Lord of the Rings trilogy . Not only because of Peter Jackson ’s epic adaptation, but in the sheer depth of content and effor...
