When I was watching the trailer for The Cursed it felt really ambiguous, a lowkey Victorian era horror by the looks of it. Then it came out and after seeing some people speaking about it and the poster art, I realized instead it was a werewolf curse movie. I'm not sure why this is the case, but all the classic monsters - your vampires, werewolves, mummies - they don't get a lot of good movies anymore.
Thankfully, The Cursed is…
Well who would have thought I’d be here in a freak snow storm watching Morbius. I mean, I knew. It was inevitable. The hot dumpster fire that people have made this film out to be, there is no possible way it could live up to it. It's not that I've been afraid of checking it out, more so disinterested.
I seek out bad horror movies, these are things I do to myself. By that standard, this isn’t that terrible. Sure,…
Full Moon isn't exactly known for riveting story telling. The same could be said about the past two movies in this series. Bloodlust is the third installment in Radu's never ending journey of dying over and over again while being a whinny baby who hates his family. Honestly, he's a character you keep coming back for if you like the snotty brat villain who is completely irredeemable. If you don't, then how did you make it to this third movie?…
Nic Cage is always welcome in this house, Pig was floating around the message boards and discords the moment it was released and damned if I didn't keep putting it off. The premise, from what I was told, seemed very John Wick, another movie (series) I haven't gotten around to checking out. Revenge for an animal is pulling at my heart strings, but I don't want to cry!
It wasn't the sob fest I was fearful of, however it was…
I can’t believe this lived up to the hype. I’m seeing everyone from the cinephiles to the general audience absolutely loosing their shit over Everything Everywhere All At Once so I made my way to the theaters this morning to experience it myself.
Holy shit this movie is incredible.
I laughed, I cried for minutes on end, I was blown away by impressive camera work and beautifully worded dialogue. Encompassing all film in a way that is truly indescribable.
I can’t say anything about this film other than the one word that conveys everything about it:
Beautiful.
Phenomenal.
Capturing a feeling in a film is a goal most film makers set out to do. Anguish, drive, fear, disappointment - some how, Whiplash grabs hold of these emotions, and more, while effortlessly telling a dramatic story. Not a coming of age tale, not a rise to fame, a simple determination to take the first step towards an intangible thing.
Going into this, I knew Simmons would deliver. Christ almighty though, I was not ready for the stunning performance…
