Five Nights at Freddy’s was a big hit for Universal and Blumhouse, making $297 million at the box office from a $20 million budget. This feat was particularly impressive, given that the film had weak reviews and a simultaneous theatrical and digital release. The sequel builds on the lore of the property. In 1982, a […]
From the very first shot, 100 Nights of Hero fits into a particular style of indie film that’s been emerging over the past few years. It’s difficult to track down those I haven’t seen, as there aren’t many and there’s no name linking them. But you know it when you see it. They utilize a vibrant, […]
There’s something simple and utterly delightful about Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Disney+’s adaptation of Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson book series. It’s the rare show that works on two levels – it’s clearly aimed primarily at a younger audience, but it also has more than enough interesting beats and fun casting choices to keep adults […]
Well, we learned an awful lot about the Others, their particular world view, and just what they can and cannot do to the world around them and the Survivors themselves this week. Oh, and we also got a bit more time with Manousos, Carol’s best chance at a partner in crime when it comes to […]
Jupiter’s cock, there’s a new season of Spartacus heading to Starz this weekend. Now, if everything in the last sentence made absolutely no sense to you, Spartacus: House of Ashur is probably not the right show for you to dive into right now – but more in a moment on what those unfamiliar with the […]

Larry and Joan Cutler (Barry Primus and Better Buckley) have been a married couple for 65 years. That all ends when Larry dies choking on a pretzel, and he finds himself in The Junction in […]
Part one focused on some recent music anime which aired this year, specifically Ave Mujica – The Die is Cast, You and Idol Pretty Cure, and Rock Is a Lady’s Modesty, along with those which aired in previous years: Love Live!! Sunshine (season 2) and K-On! (season 2). This post will focus on two series. […]
Sisu has had a strange life. Made by the same team that gave us Rare Exports, it landed fairly quietly at TIFF 2022. Its reception was warm enough, however, to be picked up for distribution. Although its US release didn’t light the box office on fire, it performed quite well relative to its budget and […]
Braveheart is a film that needs little introduction. It won five Academy Awards and has been held in high regard by audiences. It has an 8.3 score on IMDB from 1.1 million users. It’s also the poster child for historical inaccuracies in movies. William Wallace (Mel Gibson) was a humble farmer who suffered at the […]
