While it certainly isn’t high art and, at times, as awful as you expect it to be from the wrong-headed trailers, Texas Chainsaw 3D – being billed as the direct sequel to Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original (and the only in a long line of sequels to claim as such) – isn’t, much ...
With a rat-a-tat throwback style that echoes the gangster films of yesteryear and a fedora-wearing swagger that suggests dark alleys and women with dangerous curves, director Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland, 30 Minutes or Less) brings audiences back to the ...
This movie – no, this phenomenon – will change your life. Permanently. Tommy Wiseau’s The Room, having already earned freakish line-quoting followers in Los Angeles and New York through its communal (and sold out) midnight showings, is now High Definition ...
While far from perfect, Brian Cunningham and Matt Niehoff’s Overtime isn’t the total loss that it easily could have been. You’ve got a low-budget film starring former WWE superstar Al Snow and a cast of other unknowns battling an alien-virus that turns people into ...
House at the End of the Street (otherwise known as 101 Generic Minutes) is a bad career location for Jennifer Lawrence. She’s too talented of an actress to get caught up in a supposed suburban horror film that is neither scary nor any good. A haunted house ...
If you missed the lackluster Stolen in its initial 14 day theatrical run, well, I don’t blame you. Easy to watch when the brain is switched off, the film is largely a sloppy affair that can’t decide on a silly or sadistic tone. While not a complete loss thanks to the scenery chewed by everyone BUT...
I’m not trying to be funny here, but how many of you heard about The Jazz Singer before you actually saw it? It turns out the revolution was televised (in a roundabout manner of speaking). Moving pictures were meant to have sound and, in 1927, the technology ...
Quite simply, Two-Lane Blacktop is the purest road movie to ever exist. Revisiting Monte Hellman’s classic is not unlike listening to remastered Jimi Hendrix on 180 gram vinyl; a mood-altering earnest trip through the countercultural consciousness complete ...
The family tree gets a bit uprooted in the fantastic Hannah and Her Sisters. Set between two family thanksgivings, this 1986 offering from writer/director Woody Allen is rich in storytelling flow – as the characters take turn narrating the events – and ...
Don’t call it a comeback. He’s been here for years. Yeah, I said it. I couldn’t think of a better opener than quoting a little LL Cool J for you all. And, listen, it’s deserved. Arnold Schwarzenegger, last seen firing blanks in The Expendables 2, returns for another ...
With inspired gonzo guffaws and slapdash guerrilla filmmaking stylings, Sleepers is the funniest Woody Allen film to appear before his artistic vision made him a household name. Allen, a longtime fan of silent clowns like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, throws ...
Sweat. Dust. Violence. And beer. These are the outback facts of life in Ted Kotcheff’s hard-hitting Wake in Fright. An Australian film long thought lost due to the ravages of time, Wake in Fright stands proudly alongside Mad Max and Picnic at Hanging Rock as high ....
Ready for something new from Jason Statham? Something like a romantic comedy? Look elsewhere. This is meat and potatoes Statham. The protagonist of a series of thrillers by the author Donald Westlake, writing under the pseudonym Richard Stark ...
“Gross,” my wife said to me while studying the artwork on Olive Films Blu-ray release of Paramount’s Ticks, a low-budget creature feature from 1993. It was followed by, “what the hell is wrong with you?” Ticks, to be sure, is my cup of malt-o-meal comfort ...
Bursting with the same joy captured inside Domenico Modugno’s recording of Volare, To Rome with Love continues Woody Allen’s successful European vacation. The comedy is just shy of the usual laughter and a definite step down from his most successful film ...
