Remake alert! Wait, whoa. I was not prepared for this one. I really liked the original Wrong Turn back in 2003. It came out of nowhere and was kind of a spiritual sister to Deliverance. Plus, Eliza Dushku is awesome. Given that my expectations were so low, this new one ended up being rather enjoyable, specifically because it doesn't try to do a beat-by-beat…

We skipped week 1 since only a game or two were played by each team, but now we have enough data to have some separation. The undefeated Jazz are on top of our rankings this week.

This is the fourth movie in this series of anthologies. It starts with a SWAT team doing a drug bust in 1994 and finding horrific stuff in a warehouse. As they come across various TVs, the narrative shifts to what is playing on the TV and each one has its own frightening short story. There is one about a rat man living in the…

Nadja and her son, Elias, board a long flight from Europe to New York when the plane is hijacked for some elaborate theft or something. The mother is actually a vampire that goes full savage when she can't take her vampire-suppression medicine. Anyone she…

Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. Back with another edition of our NFL power rankings! How about them Raiders?!? First, the elephant in the room: "Chucky" Gruden resigned after the investigation into WFT's workplace culture issues (which resulted in a $10 million dollar fine and owner Daniel Snyder to step down from his day-to-day role for the…
This is a remake of the 1981 slasher of the same name, except this one is in 3D! Things come out of the screen at your face even when you don't have 3D glasses, which you shouldn't wear, because they make you look like an idiot. After a mining accident, the lone survivor, Harry Warden, wakes up from a coma and goes on a…
If you like the horror comedy genre, this one is a lot of fun. It's like Last Action Hero meets Friday the 13th with jokes and gags thrown in. Max (Taissa Farmiga) and her group of friends go to a Camp Blood movie double-feature and are magically transported inside the movie when trying to escape a theater fire. More than seeing the film from…
