May 13, 2019 18:08 - 2 hours - 80.2 MBContinuing to keep audiences guessing what his next film will be...Shyamalan shifted away from aliens and into the past with his quasi-creature feature, The Village.

December 17, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 112 MBIn 1955 audiences were shocked by one of the first mainstream films depicting the terrorizing of a family in their suburban home.

The film itself garnered four nominations including Best Picture. Many consider Bogart's role as Fred C. Dobbs to be one of his greatest performances and a shocking mystery why he wasn't nominated.

Halloween (2018) | Movie Review | Final Installment in Halloween Retrospectiver Series
October 22, 2018 19:06 - 1 hour - 91.5 MBHalloween is back after almost a decade of being absent from the big screen—the longest hiatus ever in the history of the series. For the third time the series has broken continuity to make this latest film a direct sequel to John Carpenter’s 1978 original cult classic thereby ignoring all previous films.

First Man (2018) | Movie Review | Fourth in Damien Chazelle Reviews
October 22, 2018 18:32 - 1 hour - 132 MBThe wunderkind, Damien Chazelle, continues to achieve new heights…literally. His latest story shifts his long-held focus away from jazz music to a major moment in not only American history but also the history of mankind when one man, Neil Armstrong, walked on the moon. First Man chronicles Armstrong’s personal life and how it affects his out of this world journey. How does Chazelle’s first non-musical film compare to his recording tie 14 Oscar nom La La Land? With the backing of Steven Spie...
La La Land (2016) | Movie Review | Third in Damien Chazelle Reviews
October 15, 2018 19:17 - 1 hour - 98 MB2 years after Chazelle’s Oscar hit, Whiplash, he came back with a film that would tie the record for 14 Academy Award nominations. La La Land quickly became a massive success with major buzz across the United States. People were clamoring to see its hit and miss wide release showings. With a memorable faux Best Picture win, yet still winning six Oscars, La La Land is considered a love letter to Old Hollywood musicals that surely will be regarded as a modern day classic.

Rob Zombie's Halloween II (2009) | Movie Review
October 03, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 104 MBTwo years after Rob Zombie brought his reimagined remake of Halloween to the big screen, audiences weren't asking for a sequel but the profitability of the first warranted a second. Halloween II eschewed all rules and conventions of the series to bring a supernatural nightmarish vision of gratuitous profanity and Nihilism of the Myers family. Zombie's startling film made audiences feel as if they hadn't even seen a Halloween movie, making this one of the most despised installments of the fra...
Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench (2009) | Movie Review | First of Damien Chazelle Reviews
October 01, 2018 20:56 - 1 hour - 80.3 MBNine years ago, little did the world know one of the most well-renowned wunderkind directors would garner 19 Academy Award nominations between his first two widely distributed films, Whiplash and La La Land, when he made his directorial debut with a little-known film called Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench. Receiving praise at festivals such as Tribeca and AFI, Guy and Madeline was a hit that most moviegoers didn't know about. Join Corbin and Allen as they take a look at Chazelle's earliest ...
Mother of Tears (2007) | Movie Review | Third in the Three Mothers Trilogy
September 24, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 113 MB27 years is all it took to finish the Three Mothers trilogy Italian master of horror Dario Argento began in 1977. After the 1980 release of Inferno, fans expected a third and final installment, at the very least, within the decade...they were sorely mistaken. Once Argento decided to return to finish the trilogy in the early 2000's, the hype surrounding the film reached a level never enjoyed by its two predecessors, Suspiria and Inferno, during their theatrical run. Mother of Tears owes its s...
Inferno (1980) | Movie Review | Second in the Three Mothers Trilogy
September 17, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 86.2 MBThree years after Dario Argento's modest success, Suspiria, the Italian director returned to the pyschofantastical world of the Three Mothers. Inferno follows a man in America looking for his sister who just so happens to live in the second Mother's lair. Argento's wife, Daria Nicolodi, decided to leave the writers chair on the set of Suspiria so she could star as one of the leads in this followup. Toning down the visual flair and opting for a funky soundtrack makes the sequel pull some punc...
Suspiria (1977) | Movie Review & Analysis | First in the Three Mothers Trilogy
September 10, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 114 MBFamed Italian master of horror, Dario Argento, brought his terrifying vision of bright colors and lights with a sinister score from Goblin to the United States big screen. In 1977, the horror genre had stalled with uninspiried sequels such as Exorcist II: The Heretic. Alas, horror came into its own niche with independent films such as Eraserhead and The Hills Have Eyes and, of course, Suspiria. Considered one of the greatest horror films of all time, Argento weaves a nightmarish vision of wi...

Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007) | Movie Review
September 04, 2018 21:29 - 1 hour - 76.5 MBAlthough Halloween Resurrection wasn't a box office failure, it did fail to satisfy fans who felt the new things it did for the series weren't ultimately satisfying nor even remotely close to the heart of Halloween. What the franchise needed was another reboot. For the first time, Halloween got a remake, quasi-prequel, and reimagining.
