THE GAMBLER Movie Review – Slick, Superficial, Cod-Philosophical Take on Addiction
THE GAMBLER: A slick, superficial, cod-philosophical take on gambling addiction.

Oscar Watching: BIRDMAN Taking Flight
Stiles White’s low-budget horror flick Ouija barely won the weekend box office over Nightcrawler – Dan Gilroy’s takedown of today’s entertainment press, but the real story of the weekend is Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Birdman. Following raves out of the Venice Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, and New York Film Festival,

Oscar Watching: Still Looking for the One?
Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar recently screened for select bloggers and critics. Reactions seem to be all over the place, but it could end up being the big spectacle contender – because what else is there, honestly? Guess we’re still looking for “the one to beat,” assuming that we haven’t found it

Oscar Watching: Taking a Gamble?
Rupert Wyatt’s The Gambler will have its world premiere on Nov. 10 at this year’s AFI Fest – more specifically, in the Dolby Theatre. The remake of the 1974 drama that earned James Caan a Golden Globe nomination stars Mark Wahlberg, Brie Larson, Jessica Lange, Michael Kenneth Williams, and John

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “Go to Hell” Recap
We’re almost there horror fans, and last week delivered an American Horror Story: Coven episode that in many ways felt like the one I’ve been waiting all season to see; scary, funny, gleefully wicked, and full of all sorts great supernatural twists and turns.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “Protect the Coven” Recap
I didn’t like this episode of American Horror Story: Coven as much as last week, mainly because my favorite witch Misty is still stuck in a coffin, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t fun.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “The Magical Delights of Stevie Nicks” Recap
Happy 2014, everyone! Let the horrors continue!

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “Head” Recap
Merry Christmas horror fans! The holidays aren’t exactly the prime time for witchcraft, voodoo, and decapitations, so we’ve had a bit of a break from our favorite horror show. However before it returns on January 8th, let’s make sure we’re all up-to-speed. This last episode was a game changer, and

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “The Sacred Taking” Recap
After the rather dull episode we had before break, things start to pick up again this week. We open with Queenie (rapidly becoming one of my least favorite characters on the show) walking through a bad part of town at night, where she is menaced by a homeless man. However

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “The Dead” Recap
We had a week off of American Horror Story to celebrate Thanskgiving with our loved ones, which was probably appropriate given this isn’t exactly the kind of show that brings families together. And though I’m far belated for a recap of what happened the week before that, I do my

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “The Axeman Cometh” Recap
This week doesn’t quite live up to last week’s thrilling episode, but it’s still a fun one and it lays out a lot of groundwork for some fun plot-lines down the road. We open in 1919 at the start of the Jazz Age, when a mysterious Axeman (played with a

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “Burn, Witch. Burn!” Recap
Wow, what an episode! The best of the season so far? I’d say so. We open on All-Hallows Eve, 1833 at Madame LaLaurie’s home. A young man at the party takes interest in LaLaurie’s daughter Boquita, so LaLaurie invites him to her “chamber of horrors.” In a spin on

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “Fearful Pranks Ensue” Episode Recap
Happy (belated) Halloween! What better way to celebrate than to watch another episode of American Horror Story? This week ratchets things up considerably, expanding the world of the story and also the rivalry between the two witch clans. Let’s get started. In 1961, a young black boy is lynched by

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: ASYLUM Blu-ray Review
American Horror Story: Asylum is one of the most blood curdling TV series aside from The Walking Dead. The first season was terrifying enough, but Ryan Murphy continues to amp up the scares with this second season of American Horror Story. The second season is now available on Blu-ray, and

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN “The Replacements” Episode Recap
This week’s episode was a busy one! Lots to go through, though not a heck of a lot of resolution. Let’s not waste any time! We open with Fiona grabbing a midnight drink, unable to sleep. She flashes back to the year 1971, where she talks with the lead Supreme
