Hostage surprised the shit out of me. Not literally, as there’d have been a rift between myself and the AMC Theaters chain. The film was fun, so fun I literally took a shit in the theater. Wait. I didn’t literally shit. I figuratively shit. My brain’s ass made poops at the theater. Ah screw it, … Continue reading
Mailbagsukidoji: The Steady Leak may not be so steady these days, but your letters have been, so I must share them and answer them so that the wheels keep turning on this crazy little bitch. Feel free to ask whatever about whomever or whatever, and I’ll do my best to answer it. Letters in here … Continue reading
The glory days might have passed, but NBC’s stalwart series E.R. still has enough fans to fill a wood-paneled station wagon. And until Noah Wylie gets that call for More Myths of Fingerprints, so it shall be. Wait. You say he hung up the scrubs a month ago? Uh-oh. Consider this his last hurrah, then, … Continue reading
Mr. & Mrs. Smith just didn’t click for me – there wasn’t enough to Pitt and Jolie’s wholly superficial characters (as beautiful as they may be) to make me care if they murdered each other, reconciled their marriage or successfully shot up a department store full of faceless stormtroopers. It’s also at least 20 minutes … Continue reading
Hey, remember this thing? Well, I’m gonna try something different here in the hopes of giving the Underground a steady throbbing pulse instead of saving everything up for one lengthy money shot (besides, I’m told that readers hate scrolling). So from now on I’ll throw these up in rabbit-punch fashion, with a quick review, news … Continue reading
Werewolves are great. We don’t get enough werewolf movies, especially ones that don’t waste the talents of Julie Delpy. Wes Craven is a beloved horror creator for many, and this is his werewolf film. Better yet, this is the unrated edition of his werewolf film. Better yet, it’s free. Cursed stars Christina Ricci, Roger Dodger‘s … Continue reading
I never do this. I hate it when there’s one picture from a movie that gets out on the web and it shows diddly shit and everyone gets psyched about it. "Oooh, Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne!" ie, Christian Bale in a suit. Hate it. But here I am doing it! That’s just because the … Continue reading
Luke Wilson, brother of the Butterscotch Stallion, is in talks to star in the new Ivan Reitman movie, Super Ex. It’s about a guy who breaks up with his girlfriend only to find out that she’s a superhero, and she uses her powers against him. It’s part of the next wave of superhero films, which … Continue reading
You can’t keep a good shark down. While there was a Jaws DVD that hit shelves a couple of years ago, this is the film’s 30th anniversary, which is as good a time as any for a double dip! The good news is that the new Jaws disc seems actually worth buying. But maybe you … Continue reading
Hello, everyone! After a bit of a hiatus, this sucker’s back. I’ve gotten a few more submissions (to those who haven’t heard from me, I apologize. You will soon enough.), so thankfully it seems that the ship will stay afloat for at least a little while longer. So keep ’em coming, folks. This is your … Continue reading
