From the director of Beyond the Black Rainbow, comes a wild cinematic journey of love and vengeance. On the surface, it is pretty thin on plot, but what makes the film shine is an incredible aesthetic where every frame is like a painted canvas. The attention to detail is pretty rare these days, or at least the uncompromising vision along with the attention to detail.…
This kinda came out of nowhere and intrigued me, because the premise, tone, and cast sounded fresh. Danny McBride plays a deranged homeowner who is in financial dire straits after the crash of the housing market in 2008. After an unfortunate turn of events, he takes real estate agent Rosemarie DeWitt hostage and things get worse from there. It's a very dark comedy with…
Dont Watch it.
In some ways, this is like The Hangover with ladies. Scarlett Johansson plays the main lady, Jess, who is being thrown a massive bachelorette party in Miami with 4 college friends. Things go a little off the rails when a male stripper is accidentally killed in front of the girls. Sometimes, these kinds of raunchy comedies can be a lot of fun. Other times, the…
This is the third in the Purge movie series, which depicts a horrific "future" America where an annual holiday known as The Purge is used to "cleanse" the people for the rest of the year. Basically, on Purge day, all laws are suspended for 12 hours and people just go around killing each other. Funny thing is, no one mentions anything about insider trading or tax…
Told through found footage, this horror movie shows a Maryland seaside community's deadly July 4th outbreak of a mutant parasite in the water supply. The host of the footage is a fresh-faced news reporter (Kether Donahue) who witnessed the events firsthand and managed to survive without being infected. The gore is definitely top-notch, but the "story" is rather lacking. It's literally just a series…
This new feature film adaptation of Stephen King's 1986 novel of the same name takes a much different approach than the 1990 TV mini-series. The dark and gritty tone make it one of the creepiest movies of the last several years. If you are unfamiliar with the story by now, there is something wrong with you. Basically, a group of kids band together in…
Everything you thought you knew about shark movies should just be thrown out the damn window. Billed as a 3-D movie (the awful blue and red kind), Jaws 3 goes to great lengths to point stuff at the screen. The main character Mike Brody is played by Dennis Quaid. He and his younger bro character, Sean, are the only link back to the other…
