I have to admit, I really appreciate when a found footage film tackles a blisteringly NOW moment and works with it. It isn't always successful but when done well they serve as a sort of guidepost for where our culture was at that moment and I appreiate it. Even with THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT you… Continue reading THE WENDIGO – found footage review

Strange, Weird, and Wonderful – off-the-beaten-path movies you should see
I have been consuming movies since I was a wee little monster and to say I have seen some weird movies, some wild movies, and some off-beat movies is to put it mildly. I have seen some stuff. In that spirit, I thought I’d recommend some off-the-beaten-path films I have seen over the years that… Continue reading Strange, Weird, and Wonderful – off-the-beaten-path movies you should see
THE OUTWATERS – found footage review
If I have ever learned anything from found footage it's never to go on an excursion with friends. It never goes well. Like, at least don't film it. Maybe that's the key. Yeah, DO NOT FILM YOUR VACATION! That's just courting disaster. I gotta be honest with you...I can't quite tell you what THE OUTWATERS… Continue reading THE OUTWATERS – found footage review
Anticipation
As a kid, I remember waiting with bated breath for fall. I was no fan of school, that’s to be sure, but I was desperate for the start of the fall cartoons and for the fall television slate. You see, in the ‘80s the fall season was when the new cartoons would debut as well… Continue reading Anticipation

The Bottomless Dark – 8MM and HARDCORE movie reviews
Some of the fun of being a movie fan is making your own pairings that make sense for thematic reasons, or the same actors are in them, or same director, or whatever else you can think works. For me, I paired the films 8MM and HARDCORE and am shocked at how well they work together… Continue reading The Bottomless Dark – 8MM and HARDCORE movie reviews
Broken Systems
When I first started doing ‘zines with friends we were all about the DIY ethos. We were just kids, teenagers, and we didn’t have any money to put into anything, to be honest, so we cut pictures out of old magazines, printed things off of computer printers, and made copies at copy centers or on… Continue reading Broken Systems
THE FLASH – film review (ahhAHHH!)
There is something that feels…ghoulish in watching the last handful of DC movies because they are, for lack of a better term, dead films walking. They are holdovers for a previous regime and, good, bad, or mediocre, the odds are slight that they’ll have any impact on what is to come save for souring moviegoers… Continue reading THE FLASH – film review (ahhAHHH!)
