This is my third time interviewing Richard Taylor, the capo of WETA. The guy doesn’t talk, he declaims. It’s always fun listening to him, not just because of his unique take on the monotone but because he still manages to get such passion across. King Kong, on DVD today, is certainly Taylor and WETA’s greatest … Continue reading

Opening this weekend, Stay Alive mixes horror films, video games and Frankie Muniz into the kind of movie they don’t screen for critics. I haven’t seen it yet, but I can tell you that the minds behind it – co-writers William Bell and Matt Petersen (Bell also directed) – are real home team guys, the … Continue reading
I kind of feel bad for Gregg Henry. The character actor is incredible in Slither – his every line is hilarious, and his delivery is impeccable. He has a fit about Mr. Pibb that left me almost in tears. But I feel bad for him because he was part of a five person press conference … Continue reading
