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

FEAST ON THIS

At this point in my career I have had many uncomfortable celebrity moments, but perhaps none so uncomfortable as a bathroom encounter with John Gulager at the Slither premiere afterparty. Even though I was a raving drunk lunatic whose aim may have been off, Gulager was quite nice to me, and expressed nothing but hope … Continue reading

CRYPT-O-GRAM! #3

For Crypto-O-Gram #3 I have created a different kind of puzzle that I call “Sliders.” To solve this puzzle create an Excel table of 10 rows and 10 columns (“J”). Highlight column #5 (“E”). For each row I’ve thought of a one-word film title. For each film I’ve come up with a two-word clue. I’ve … Continue reading

PAUL GIAMATTI IS ALSO A DICK?

Once in a while there’s a concept so exceptional that everyone wants to incorporate it into a feature film, so you’ll see Deep Impact vs. Armageddon, or Volcano vs. Dante’s Peak.

The CHUD Thinker is a puzzle, rebus, pictogram, visual … Continue reading

WWE superstar John Cena has left behind the world of sweaty soap operas and homoerotic faux-violence for this rather ridiculous-looking bullet-riddled endeavor, in which he portrays an … Continue reading

SNAKE ON A SPACE PLANE?

So Bloody Disgusting’s scoop last week about George Clooney being in the Pet Sematary remake didn’t quite pan out, but let’s not hold it against them. Especially when they bring us a story as interesting – and sort of basically plausible – as this one: John Carpenter and Kurt Russell may be reteaming for a … Continue reading

GEORGE ROMERO IS TURNING JAPANESE

George A Romero has found his next project, and while it’s about the dead, it’s not about the Dead. The movie is called Solitary Isle, and it’s based on a short story by Suzuki Koji, the guy who wrote the original stories for The Ring and Dark Water. Solitary Isle, according to a review of … Continue reading
