After hitting critical success with their film Undead, The Spierig Brothers were given not only more money to play with, but an all-star Hollywood cast to fill their toy box. The result? Daybreakers, a semi-apocalyptic vampire flick that tells the story of a world where humans are an endangered species, and the world’s vampire population […]
You remember Keli? She made a guest appearance on Funnybooks a few weeks ago? Comic geek? LARPer? Well, in episode 6 of The Variants, Keli has to pull a fast one!
Smallville: Absolute Justice airs Friday, February 5th at 8 PM on the CW, and why should you watch it? Well, it’s a 2-hour Smallville movie written by Geoff Johns, and has the Justice Society of America! Even if you don’t watch Smallville, seeing Dr. Fate, Hawkman, Stargirl, and Sandman in live-action should be enough of […]
I worked at a local movie theater (AMC 24 in Hampton, Virginia) when the original Strangeland came out back in 1998 (damn, that long ago?). I remember looking really forward to seeing this indy horror flick we were getting at the theater (which, unlike now, wasn’t quite such a common occurrence 12 years ago), and […]
What the hell, Danny Boyle? Quick jerkin’ us around and give us 28 Months Later! Or 28 Years Later, or whatever. Or direct the remake of The Thing that they’ve got goin’ on – that would be something wouldn’t it? I know I’d pay to see Boyle do something involving monsters, zombies, or space something […]
As if having Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Eric Roberts, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, Brittany Murphy, Danny Trejo, (gasp for breath) Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, and Charisma Carpenter wasn’t enough for you already! Apparently, Stallone broke his frickin’ neck while filming a fight scene with Stone Cold Steve […]
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 […]
