I am a Midnight Madness obsessive and have bought a ten ticket pass every year since 2008 (100$ as a student back in the day! R.I.P pass). My favorite movie going memories are the ones I made waiting in line for hours with friends (rain or shine), reacting as one with...
Wolf Warrior 2 Is The Best Canon Film That Canon Never Made
I wasn't super excited about WOLF WARRIOR 2. I found the first one fairly middling, with a distinct lack of martial arts, and a waste of Scott Adkins as a villain, so I wasn't jumping for joy when I saw a sequel was on the way. The first one was a massive hit...

The Top Five: Forgotten Movie Making-Ofs
Almost none of the films in this list are great. Most are not even good. It's the story of their making that is fascinating. #5 - WILLARD: THE YEAR OF THE RAT (2003) It's obvious that director Glen Morgan was passionate about remaking the story of a boy and his rat,...
It’s time to ace ‘GHOULIES III: GHOULIES GO TO COLLEGE’
Why do I love little rubber monsters so much? Is it the fact that the monsters represent the unleashed ID of my child self? Or that the monsters reflect the beast that I feel stir inside me on a daily basis, the one that struggles to escape, the one that is the true...

A Short and Satisfying Fight with ‘The Final Master’ (REVIEW)
Lets be honest folks, it's been pretty slim pickings in the world of martial arts cinema these days. SPL 2 and Indonesia's HEADSHOT were barn burners, but they were the exception to the rule. I still get excited when I see something like 'Sammo Hung choreographed THE...
The Most Dangerous Running Man in ‘The Million Game’
A disheveled man wakes up in a hotel room. His television has his face plastered all over it. The announcer calmly announces that it's the last day of the game. The hunters will soon find the man and attempt to kill him. If the man survives, he will get a million...
Albert Pyun Is A Great Director
As a kid with dial up internet I would spend every waking out trawling cult movie review websites: BADMOVIES.ORG. ZOMBIE KEEPER. STOMP TOKYO. I discovered the work of John Woo, Sam Raimi, Peter Jackson and hundreds of other directors that blew my mind, redefined my...
ARE YOU IN THE HOUSE ALONE? A TV MOVIE COMPENDIUM 1964-1999 (REVIEW)
I've always dismissed the TV movie as pop culture filler. Sure, there are classics like THE NIGHT STALKER and DUEL, but those are the exceptions, not the rule. And beyond the allure of B-level stars slumming it on the small screen, TV movies were a product that had a...
