There’s something I keep hearing people say about Superbad that gives me pause; they compliment the movie on its soundtrack, which they say keeps it from being dated. Some people say it’s part of the movie’s attempt to be timeless. In fact, I seem to come across a lot of people talking about movies being … Continue reading
If you were watching the MTV Video Music Awards just now… I’m sorry. Thankfully, one of my good friends was sacrificing his brain cells for reasons he’ll explain later (I’m the high-minded sort, watchin’ some Indians/Angels baseball), and was good enough to pass along the news that loyal CHUD reader Shia LaBeouf says the title … Continue reading

The Orphanage has been a big hit on the festival circuit (well, with everyone except our own Russ Fischer, who gave it a 5 out of 10 in his review right here), so it was only a matter of time before this Spanish ghost story got picked up for an English language remake. The Orphanage … Continue reading
Naomi Klein’s book No Logo is required reading for anyone who wants to understand the corporate driven world in which we live (and serve as serfs). Her new book looks promising and disturbing; Shock Doctrine explores how Milton Friedman’s concepts of economic shock therapy – using natural and manmade catastrophes and society’s stunned response to … Continue reading
Obsessed With Film seems to be the only site getting solid information about the Justice League movie, even if it isn’t the kind of earth shattering casting news that makes up the bread and butter of scoop-driven websites. Last week they were the first with the fact that casting agents had been hired for the … Continue reading

You can’t go home again. I thought Dario Argento learned that in 1980 after making the laughably bad Inferno, ostensibly a sequel to his landmark Suspiria. But he’s back again with the third part in this so-called trilogy. Taken as a whole, the three films bear little relation to one another. Inferno and Mother of … Continue reading
