ARCHENEMY Movie Review
Like an indie bastard child of Unbreakable and Hancock, Archenemy is Adam Egypt Mortimer’s (Daniel Isn’t Real) ode to the otherworldly tales of Grant Morrison and is just joyfully odd enough to be in good company with Elijah Wood’s SpectreVision company.

TRAIN TO BUSAN: PENINSULA 4K Blu-ray Review
I had the chance to check out Train to Busan: Peninsula a few months back. The film Peninsula is a truly amazing sequel. It does a nice job of world-building much like George Romero did with his zombie classics. The sequel is much like Empire Strikes Back, which is a

LET HIM GO – Diane Lane Gives a Career Defining Performance
Diane Lane is PHENOMENAL in this. She delivers such a powerful portrayal of a mother who is dealing with the loss of her son. I am not sure where she was able to channel the raw emotion for many of her scenes. Kevin Costner is Kevin Costner. He is able

A GHOST WAITS MOVIE REVIEW
Listen in as I review A Ghost Waits from director Adam Stoall and starring Macleod Andrews and Natalie Walker. The supernatural romantic comedy had its North American Premiere at Screamfest. Made on an indie (small as shit) budget, but pushed to the max of what could be done with that
