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

INTERVIEW: SILENT HILL CAST

As a nice change of pace from all of the loud hills we have to deal with in our everyday life, Silent Hill bodes to be quite a special little film. Based on the spooky series of games dating back to the PS1, the premise based around isolation and freaky things in the mist grew … Continue reading

HUNGRY LIKE THE BENICIO

Even though it was among the many classic creatures brutally mauled by Van Helsing, there’s still some life in one of the Universal monsters — the Wolf Man probably suffered the least embarrassment at the hands of Stephen Sommers, and the hirsute horror is now transforming into a solo feature. Benicio Del Toro will explore … Continue reading

DAILY GRABOID 3.15.06

What is this? Every single day of the week (almost), a new "Graboid", a single moment grabbed from a random movie, appears on this site for you to guess the name of the film, share with your officemates, or discuss on our message boards. Sometimes the Graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be … Continue reading

HARD BOILED AGAIN?

“Give a guy a gun, he thinks he’s Superman. Give him two and he thinks he’s God!” Those words were spoken about Chow Yun-Fat’s maverick cop Tequila in what is arguably one of the greatest modern action movies, John Woo’s mayhem masterpiece Hard Boiled. Is Chow returning to annihilate more mobsters with his trademark twin-gun … Continue reading

SLUG IT OUT

James Gunn’s Slither delivers. It’s hilarious and it’s really icky – my date to the premiere in LA last week almost threw up (which left poor Mr. Gunn a little disappointed). Slither is a complete blast, a gooey helping of horror fun. Expect plenty of coverage from CHUD.com in the coming weeks, including my exclusive … Continue reading

WELCOME BACK, KUBE

Years ago when I’d spin Ice Cube’s AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted or The Predator, I got the impression that he possessed a significant amount of what is commonly referred to as “cred”. However, since then Cube has evolved into a “playa”, with his eye strictly on “binnis”.  And since I’m relatively certain we won’t be seeing another assignment … Continue reading

EXCLUSIVE CLIP: NATURAL CITY

Wanna see how things are done in other countries? With Natural City, Korea sort of does their own variation of Blade Runner with an ambitious futuristic tale of fabricated beings who just want to live. If that involves the slaughter of any humans who get in their way, so be it. The DVD finally hits US shores … Continue reading

RIDLEY GETS PENETRATED

Terrorism: it’s still really good for business! And it seems to have drawn director Ridley Scott’s constantly oscillating attention span. Scott has apparently (momentarily) decided to focus on the spy thriller Penetration, a non-porn spy thriller that I already wrote about a couple of months ago. Scott has implied his complicity by setting his Kingdom … Continue reading

CRASH INTO BUSH

This sort of political material is really Devin’s forte, but he’s currently on "working vacation" in sunny California, so I’ll have to act as proxy pundit for the moment. Now that he’s won acclaim for his Racism for Dummies story, Crash director Paul Haggis will tackle the government and its tendency to agitate pretty much … Continue reading
