We could simply cut and paste stories from Variety, but we don’t. We’re too amazing for that. We RETYPE articles from Variety…

STATEN HAWKE

Ethan Hawke’s one of those guys who seems to have little trouble moving back and forth between big time studio pics and indies without compromising himself much for either. His low-key, laidback style makes him a pliable presence that works for a lot of material, especially ensemble films. Although he has a number of them … Continue reading

ONCE YOU GO BLACK…

It’s the latest art from Spider-Man 3, courtesy of Coming Soon. The image shows how Spider-Man got his goo back – well, probably not how it happens in the movie, since it seems that the symbiotic black suit is introduced via a meteor.This is just part of the next wave of Spidey 3 footage. This … Continue reading

EXCLUSIVE: DECOYS 2 CLIPS!

Sex and monsters. I believe it was during the filming of Alexander Nevsky that Sergei Eisenstein said that all cinema came down to sex and monsters, and Decoys: The Second Seduction certainly takes that lesson to heart. Over the course of the next few days we’ll be bringing you plenty of exclusive Decoys 2 content, … Continue reading

DENZEL IS OPEN TO DEBATE

I’ve never been a big fan of the teacher/coach-changes-his -students’-lives-magically genre of films because they usually take real life stories of genuine inspiration and apply such a saccharine sheen to them that they become nigh unrecognizable. And the framing of most of these with well-meaning whites helping unfortunate minorities has an unpleasant stench of condescension … Continue reading

PRINTS OF PERSIA

HOT WEREWOLF NAZI BITCH PICTURES

Rob Zombie’s Halloween remake has left the horror community very traumatized, but perhaps healing can come in the form of Werewolf Women of the SS, his fake trailer for Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’ Grindhouse. Obviously inspired by the CHUD Essential Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS, Zombie’s trailer stars his wife Sherri Moon-Zombie, Tom Towles … Continue reading

WILL SOMEBODY SHUT THESE CRAZY GHOSTS UP?

I missed the Asian Horror Movie train completely. I didn’t buy a ticket. I didn’t show up at the station. I didn’t even check the schedule. I can understand why the more cerebral thrills of these movies stood out amidst the lackadaisical traditional teen horror flicks coming from the US several years back.  But surely, … Continue reading

ALAS, POOR YORICK

One of my favorite current comic book series is Y: The Last Man, which is currently nearing the end of its run. The book, written by new Lost scribe Brian K Vaughan, takes place after a mysterious plague kills every single male of any species on Earth… except for goofy amateur magician Yorick Brown and … Continue reading
