There Will Be Blood Well, I can say it, the Oscars bore witness to a screwjob, as the mediocre No Country beat out this searing indictment of one man’s soul. Daniel Day-Lewis truly does own the shit as Daniel Plainview who, over the three-hour running time, descends into a twisted human being who at the […]

There’s Something About Mary Before movie comedy dropped off the precifice in the 21st century, there was one film left to be made that redefined the term “instant classic” before even its own makers drudged into a series of mostly unfunny dreck. Bobby and Peter Farrelly had already established a style that combined gross out […]

They Live There are some films that at the time of release are enjoyed and appreciated as a fun B movie experience and makes a nice chunk of change, but in the years (and decades) to come take on a whole new meaning as an eerily prescient, timely up to the present day piece of […]

The Thing (1982) The distinctly underrated and undeniable genius of one John Carpenter is such that it’s amazing that mainstream Hollywood has seemingly chosen to turn their collective backs on the man in recent years, because despite the fact that he was a known maverick back in his day, it still doesn’t change the fact […]

Things Are Tough All Over Widely considered by diehard fans to be the “worst” of the classic Cheech And Chong comedies, this marked an interesting clash in philosophies between the duo, as Cheech wanted to prove that they could be funny without the excessive drug humor, whilst Chong felt that they should stick with what […]

Thirteenth Floor In 1999, a little movie came out called The Matrix that many say changed the face of science fiction AND action movies forever. It certainly tapped into the technological aspects of the era in which it was made, showing us a reality where computer simulations were now so realistic that it was impossible […]

This Is Spinal Tap The music industry has often been ripe for satire and no form of music has never been more gloriously or stupidly as FUN as that of heavy metal in its pure, unfiltered real life form. From the late 70s through the full decade of the 1980s, the genre represented little more […]

Thor This particular entry in the Marvel Movies Sweepstakes thankfully strives to be less like the awful Captain America movie and more at times like the Iron Man series. Some adjectives that can be used to describe it include corny, cheesy, goofy, occasionally stupid, and also pretty damn entertaining as well, possibly intended to leave […]

300 Of all the military campaigns in history, none may be more extraordinary than in 480 BC, when a small Spartan army of approximately 300 stood alone to defend their land against the massive invading forces of The Persians, eventually going down in battle but not before slaughtering untold thousands of The Persian ranks, decimating […]
