Spider-Man 3 (2007) – Sigh… I said I was going to revisit the Sam Raimi Spider-Man films… and unfortunately that means watching this one again. I can’t believe I even own it (it came with my Playstation 3). Completist that I am however I just had to hold onto it and watch it during my … Continue reading →

Red State (2011) – Well this is sure as shit a change of pace from Mallrats, I can tell you… Really, there’s nothing unusal about a film-maker switching up styles (James Mangold seems to do it with every movie), but Kevin Smith has carved such a smart-ass niche for himself that it’s actually pretty shocking … Continue reading →

Hobo with a Shotgun (2011) – In 2007 Grindhouse aimed to bring back exploitation cinema in a big way. It did, but the movie’s less-than-stellar box office returns nixed Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s big plan to make a whole series of these types of films. Grindhouse came complete with fake trailers. One of them, … Continue reading →

Machete (2010) — SECOND REVIEW [ON BLUE-RAY] Well I’ve already reviewed this film at length so, although I may repeat many points from the original review, I have decided to write his one as an itemized list of awesome things about this movie… [many of these are SPOILERS] 1. The mere fact that this movie … Continue reading →

Grindhouse (2007) — Sweet Jesus I have been waiting for this for about three years, ever since I got out of the theater after seeing this the first (and until now only) time. Planet Terror and Death Proof have been available separately for years now but this is what Grindhouse was all about: getting the … Continue reading →

Predators (2010) — Finally! This is the first Predator sequel that actually lives up to the potential of the franchise (still not as good as the first one though). It’s definitely got flaws (Adrian Brody as a badass?) but nothing that isn’t made up for by the awesomeness of predators hunting and killing people in … Continue reading →

Planet Terror (2007) — I fucking love this movie because it just goes for broke on awesomeness. It may not actually scare anyone (although it has a spider and spiders freak me right the fuck out) but it does entertain from beginning to end. I still lament that the full theatrical Grindhouse experience is not … Continue reading →
