Pulp Fiction Labeled by many as the Greatest Movie Of The 90s (it’s not, even by Tarantino’s standards) and as one of the Greatest Movies Of All Time that quickly took its place among respectable best film lists almost immediately. But a closer look indicates that the film (while still great) gets its classic status […]
Pumpkinhead Released in 1988 and garnering quite a bit of attention as the directorial debut of movie FX Legend Stan Winston, this is a horror / monster movie that seems to spin off of old folk tales as its inspiration, and it does succeed in a couple of aspects, namely in its atmosphere and the […]
Punisher (2004) Comic book movies sometimes have a weird line to walk, as even though comics themselves are a limited, one dimensional art form, when a movie adaptation is made of one, more often than not studios pay far too much heed to the vocal minority of comic book fans who practically masturbate to their […]
