Yes folks, Van Damme has returned for a rematch with none other than Dolph Lundgren, and UFC Heavyweight Andrei Arlovski along to help in the ass kickery! There’ve been many talks about “going back to the well” long after it’s dry, but recent attempts (like Rocky Balboa and Rambo) by aging action superstars have proved […]
2009 wasn’t the greatest year for movies. Highly anticipated flicks didn’t match expectations, and the hype engine managed to overhype a ton of mediocre flicks (I’m looking at you, Drag Me to Hell and Laid to Rest). Still, if you looked hard enough, you would definitely find some diamonds in the rough, and it’s a […]
I really enjoyed the first Phobia (aka 4bia) , a 2008 Thai anthology horror film featuring the work of some of the most popular Thai horror film directors. It had some great ideas, but seemed to suffer from pretty poor special effects and uneven storytelling. Phobia 2, which actually features five stories, improves on the […]
Wait…wha? I didn’t realize The First Avenger: Captain America (stupid title by the way) had already signed a director. Now I see that not only have they signed a director, Joe Johnston, but they’re getting set to start shooting in June? Man … I’ve been out of the loop. Nonetheless, I’m pretty psyched about the […]
I make no bones (heh) about saying that Jeff Smith’s Bone is probably one of, if not THE, greatest comic book of ALL TIME. Sure, many others have created long form stories, like Cerebus, Preacher, and more, but none have had quite the same universal appeal as Bone. I’ve read a ton of articles and […]

Seriously, according to Yahoo! Movies, the following only cost $300 to make. I’m not entirely sure what $300 director Fede Alvarez was using to make this movie, but I’d sure like that $300. This movie is freakin’ amazing! Alvarez uploaded the movie on a Friday and within days was signed for a $30 million dollar […]
James Cameron is well known for his visually stunning, epic masterpieces. From Terminator to Titanic, Aliens to the Abyss, he’s consistently created major works of cinema that leave lasting impacts on pop culture. His latest work, Avatar, promises to add to this reputation. As expected, the effects in this movie are beautiful and seamless. “Awe […]
I put an exclamation point in the title, but I’m not entirely sure how excited I am about this announcement. I mean, don’t get me wrong – Singer’s a competent director. I enjoyed Valkyrie. I liked the first two X-Men flicks….er…wait, I take that back. I liked X-Men 2. I didn’t really care for the […]
Ya know, I’m still digging the look of Louis Letterrier’s Clash of the Titans. I ‘ve liked his last two films (Unleashed and The Incredible Hulk), so I’ve got a lot of faith (ha) in the project. But dammit … they need to lose that Trans-Siberian Orchestra sounding music.
