Is the best batman movie ever a 1993 box office bomb that Warner Bros. Failed to market properly? We think so! This week we are reviewing Batman: Mask of The Phantasm. The first animated feature film coming off the heels of Batman The Animated Series’s first season. The film is unique in its approach to focus more on Batman himself and his reasoning for donning the cape and cowl rather than focus on his rogues gallery.

2024/11/27

In this episode, we dive into Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving, a holiday slasher inspired by classics like My Bloody Valentine and April Fool’s Day.

Did Thanksgiving lose its edge in the transition to a full-length feature, or does it offer a fresh twist on the slasher genre?

2024/10/31

Poltergeist (1982) is the Steven Spielberg produced and Tobe Hooper directed haunted house movie that shows how the horror genre can hit multiple layers of social commentary and still deliver chilling terror without being viewed as "preachy". From commenting on Manifest Destiny, The American Dream, Reagan's America and White Flight, there is a literal cornucopia of meaning that you can find in this film. However, none of that has ever translated over to the sequels (Poltergeist 2 and Poltergeist 3)

This week, we are taking a look at these two films and trying to figure out not only why Brandon Lee's classic portrayal of Eric Draven is so beloved and has stood the test of time, but why this remake that, arguably was setup for failure, even made it to the big screen.

What happens when The Terminator tries to go goofy, and sentimental...you get Junior. Junior from 1994 is a movie that must have been designed by commitee and with a photoshopped version of the poster first. This Ivan Reitman comedy about a mad scientist testing experimental fertility drugs on himself falls short. Is it the lack of comedic characters? The plain wrong ethics at play? or simply the nightmare fuel scene of Arnold Schwarzenegger's CGI face on an infant. Take your pick, there are a lot
