Against my better judgement I went out to see the new “Halloween 2”. Granted, I didn’t think the first one was any good, and no I haven’t enjoyed any film by Rob Zombie at this point (even though my iPod is filled with his music)… but I thought “just maybe”. … [Read More]
There is no other way to put it. The summer of 2009 was probably one of most disappointing summer movie seasons I can remember in a long time. Of the 47 or so movies that came into wide release this season, I can almost count on one hand the number … [Read More]
Hey, all film is subjective and I’m sure there are more than a couple of you out there who are really excited by 1 or more of the films opening up this weekend… but for me… I can’t remember the last time there was a weekend with more than 1 … [Read More]
I’ve said a thousands times that my absolute favorite horror film of the last 10 years is EASILY “The Descent”. The film had me creeped the hell out WAY before any of the “monsters” showed up in the movie. It was a brilliant use of atmosphere and setting… the two … [Read More]

I don’t want to waste too much of my time on this post, but it at least deserves mentioning. Let me say this once. Are you all listening? MEGAN FOX IS NOT CATWOMAN. Ok? I don’t care what “The Sun” said. It’s not happening. Do you think for one solitary … [Read More]
There is a 99.999% chance you don’t know Ed Turner, or maybe even ever heard of him… but for a short time I knew him, and he was one hell of a talented and good guy. He was my 1st assistant director on my movie “The Anniversary” and has about … [Read More]
Let me explain the title of this post a little bit. Apparently the studio and director Neill Blomkamp have been talking about the possibility of doing a sequel to “District 9”. And flat out I think this is a TERRIBLE idea. For now anyway. Here’s the background for those of … [Read More]
I was flipping through some of my favorite MMA websites today and came across a comparison of “The Dean Of Mean” Keith Jardine (who can ben seen in the upcoming Gerard Butler film “Gamer”), and the viral video legend “The Techno Viking”. Obviously, when you think of the Techno Viking … [Read More]
