I was eleven when the real events of this drama took place, and I don’t remember them at all. It’s ancient history. And yet — because of films like this, and Munich (2005), it isn’t ancient history at all. Movies like […]

Marlowe (2022) ☆ ☆
As I noted in my review of In the Land of Saints and Sinners back in November, Liam Neeson is an actor “who lends an unmistakable gravitas and believability to the characters he portrays.” He is always solid, and he comfortably […]
Continue reading »Sasquatch Sunset (2024) ☆ ☆ 1/2
Another outdoor adventure appealed to me when I saw that Sasquatch Sunset was available to watch. Being a big Abominable Snowman / Yeti / Bigfoot fan — I once did an article on Yeti movies (Volume 2, Issue 3, Winter 2001) […]
Continue reading »The Wolf of Snow Hollow (2020) ☆ ☆
This is a werewolf movie I had missed from a few years ago, so when I saw it was being broadcast this week I thought I should catch up with it. In theme and setting it is very much like Werewolves […]

I’m not sure where I now stand on the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After the epic concluding chapters of Infinity War and Endgame, any further superhero adventure seemed, and continues to seem, superfluous to me, especially if it involves a multiverse […]

Along with horror flicks, crime stories are all the rage, on movie screens and television screens. It seems to me that since the turn of the millennium (if not before), there has grown an unhealthy and rather perverse fascination with […]
Continue reading »Model House (2024) ☆ ☆
I was in the mood for some sleazy exploitation, and what could be more titillating than Model House, wherein five nubile young women spend time in a house together, sans chaperones? Lingerie, pillow fights, hot tub action, perhaps a catfight or […]
Continue reading »Under Paris (2024) ☆ ☆
As someone who adores Jaws, I make it a point to see just about every shark movie out there. Most of them bite (as in suck). Under Paris is a new shark movie with a new premise, one that has generated […]
Continue reading »The Munsters (2022) ☆
Rob Zombie is a guy that I just don’t get. He’s an accomplished musician, writer and filmmaker — yet I don’t like anything he’s ever done. Too much heavy metal, way too much gruesome violence and a soul that seems […]
Continue reading »Borderlands (2024) ☆ 1/2
When I saw the preview for this science-fiction/fantasy/action/comedy I thought it was the worst preview I had witnessed in recent years. It looked absolutely terrible and I avoided seeing Borderlands during its two-week run in my area. Now I’ve streamed the […]
