Some cliche somewhere said that 'a picture is worth a thousand words.' This has proven to be the case for me and especially when it comes to fan art. I have always sought out great fan art and have wanted to share it with as many people as possible. "Awesome Artwork We've Found Around The Net" is the outlet for that passion. In this column, I will showcase…

If you loved A QUIET PLACE but thought that it needed a legion of flying critters as well as a shotgun-wielding Stanley Tucci, then you're in luck, because Netflix's algorithm will soon be bringing us THE SILENCE, a horror film adapted from the novel of the same name by Tim Lebbon. The film takes place in an apocalyptic world which is under attack from terrifying creatures…
It's been quite a while since one of the creepiest and kookiest families in television history were up on the big screen. In fact, not since the 1993 release of director Barry Sonnenfeld's ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES have Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, Lurch, Thing and Granny bucked conventional norms by living their best lives as pinnacles of the morose and macabre.…

Before ending credits started to roll on director Rian Johnson's divisive STAR WARS: EPISODE VIII - THE LAST JEDI, the BRICK filmmaker introduced fans to Broom Boy, who as it turns out is force sensitive.

Everyone knows that ordering drinks at the bar can be an uphill battle. For starters, it feels as if you're always having to shout your order, hoping to break the thump and hum of whatever music is blasting overhead. Second, it often takes forever to get a bartender's attention, so patience is key. Third, watch those tabs, people. Leaving your credit card at the bar is a fine…

The finale of AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR took the concept of cinematic cliffhangers to new heights, and keeping it under wraps no doubt required some intense levels of security. The trailers have been released for the follow-up, AVENGERS: ENDGAME, and surely countless fans have tried to comb over every frame in hopes of uncovering some sort of massive detail, and even Joe Russo believes there are…

Two years ago in April 2017, the entertainment industry lost one of its biggest titans in Don Rickles, who passed away at the age of 90.

Fans of the series were likely saddened to think he wouldn’t be back for more,…
William Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” is one of his most cherished works and has been getting the screen adaptation treatment ever since screen adaptations have been in existence. While the most recent one was only a few years ago no one is balking at the latest coming from Joel Coen (NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, FARGO), especially now that it has solidified Oscar winners Denzel…
Last April AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR lived up to the expectations as one of the biggest movies ever made by demolishing the global opening weekend record with $640 million, which is $100 million more than the second-place holder (THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS). One year later and the expectations are even higher for AVENGERS: ENDGAME, and while the number that trounces over half a billion…

Everyone knows that the road to the Iron Throne is long and winding, littered with dead bodies, and probably reeks on account of everyone burying their own shit along the path. With these things in mind, among others, it stands to reason that one would become parched while venturing toward the sword-laden seat of kings ... or queens. Thankfully, the makers of Mountain Dew have got your back, as…
The 1986 Chernobyl disaster is among one of the most catastrophic nuclear accidents in human history. What started as a late-night safety test to simulate blackout power-failure, turned deadly when inherent flaws in the facility's reactor design eventually caused unfathomable and uncontrolled reactions to the core of the structure. What happened next was unlike anything those responsible…
Have you ever seen Tobe Hooper's 1979 film version of SALEM'S LOT? You know that scene in which Danny Glick (Brad Savage) comes to Mark Petrie's (Lance Kerwin) window and asks to be let in?

Gather round, kids, it's storytime! Growing up, my Mom kept an old, decrepit doll of hers named Patti Playpal in our unfinished basement closet. It was one of those child-size dolls from the early 60s that blinked and laughed when you interacted with it. I was terrified of that damned thing. In fact, my friends and I used to play a twisted game with Patti. The rules were simple: venture…

Whoa! It goes without saying that Keanu Reeves' role as Neo for the Wachowskis' philosophical sci-fi epic, THE MATRIX, is one of the defining moments of his career, but did you know that at one time BIRD BOX star Sandra Bullock was considered to arrive as The One?

I haven't read Alvin Schwartz‘s "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" since I was a kid, and although I scarcely remember the actual stories, I sure as hell remember the terrifying illustrations by Stephen Gammell. The one which freaked me out the most was the Pale Lady, and she's the subject of the latest poster for the upcoming…
Believe it or not, but Jordan Peele's upcoming re-imagining of The Twilight Zone is actually the third revival of the iconic sci-fi anthology series. While the original show will obviously be hard to top, there's certainly room for a modern-day crop of stories set in that wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination - The Twilight Zone. We're less than…
If we're to learn anything from the absurdly popular Angry Birds video-game series, it's that birds and pigs are natural enemies, so watching the two warring nations unite in the new trailer for THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE 2 is alarming and wrong. I don't like it. Although the conflict between avian and swine is alive and well in the opening moments of the trailer,…
Nearly four years after we bid farewell to Downton Abbey, the Crawley family is set to make a return, but this time, they'll be headed to the big-screen.

For many children of the ‘80s, Pat Morita’s Mr. Miyagi was more than just another film character - he was a teacher, a friendly face, and a source for positive self-discipline. He taught fans of THE KARATE KID franchise to value non-violence above all else; a lesson that bears revisiting, especially during today’s troubled times of intolerance, misguided aggression,…

Establishing one's innocence during times of stress or total embarassment is always an uphill climb.
