SxSW 2022 Interview – GETTING IT BACK: THE STORY OF CYMANDE director Tim Mackenzie-Smith
“Cymande are unsung heroes of music, all of whom moved to the UK from the Caribbean as kids and were confronted with a society that didn’t want them. Music was their salvation but still they were denied the platform their talents warranted. Despite success in the US, the UK, their home, ignored them. The band […]

THE BATMAN Review – A Return To Darkness
Even with so many varying BATMAN adaptations over the last 50+ years, from Adam West and Burt Ward in tights with hit sounds being displayed on screen in text to a loud, garish adaptation from Zack Snyder in more modern times…and so many in-between, Matt Reeves’ THE BATMAN is something of a miracle. It not […]

THE MITCHELLS VS THE MACHINES on Blu Ray – Katie Mitchell’s Cry for Physical Media
By far the best animated movie to come out in 2021, THE MITCHELLS VS THE MACHINES is delightfully bonkers, high energy and the type of animated feature that adults will enjoy on every level that kids will also love. Our writer Dustin Buursma wrote about THE MITCHELLS VS THE MACHINES last year, and it took […]
Studio 666 Review – It’s All In The Gore & Grohl
I don’t really know if there was a big demand for a movie featuring The Foo Fighters that is part music and part a gory slasher fest, but here we are with STUDIO 666, a horror comedy that somewhat confused me at the start as it starts with a SCREAM-like horror stinger to get the […]

SCREAM (5) Review – Wes Craven & Parallels
I can’t believe it has been over 25 years since SCREAM, the influential and endlessly quotable and overall fun horror comedy from the late great Wes Craven, was a surprise hit at the box office and spawned a franchise that had a sequel one short year later, then a heavily delayed third movie, then a […]
Ten Underdogs to Check Out in 2022
Genre films are the staple of many lists of anticipated films for the new year, and not everyone is keen on seeing them. More often than not, documentaries are overlooked and what I offer are releases designed more to enlighten than to entertain. Another thought I had in mind when putting together this catalogue is […]
DUNE 4k Blu Ray Review – The Spice Reigns In Ultra High Definition
Certainly a movie that has taken a LONG time to get off the ground, DUNE is a movie that comes with a lot of history and many attempts to get it to the big screen. I remember seeing the 4k laser IMAX screening of Dune at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival where it made […]
LICORICE PIZZA Review – A 70s Tale of Pinballs & Waterbeds
There’s an early moment in Paul Thomas Anderson’s newest picture LICORICE PIZZA that I feel like I haven’t seen in a movie in years. A character needs to get in touch with another character so they call them on the phone, hoping they are home. Someone else picks up the phone on the other end, […]
BEING THE RICARDOS Review – Never Say It Was Easy
Lucille Ball was more than just a comedian, studio executive, and producer. To remain a starlet on the big screen is tough, so she turned to producing and being involved in every part of the development process of a successful sitcom. Even today, not many talents are as beloved as this actress–who passed away in […]
