Common Sense

This just shocked the hell out of me when I read it.
“I’m not able to work anymore as an actor at the level I would want to,” Newman, 82, told ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday. “You start to lose your memory, your confidence, your invention. So that’s pretty much a closed book for me.”

I used to be all against Rob Zombie doing a “reinvisioning” of the classic John Carpenter flick Halloween. Remakes and sequelitis just make for some bad movies. Just look at Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. Only Nail Gun Massacre and S.I.C.K. come to mind as worse movies.
But the Myspace page and the […]

Go ahead and click over. Turn up the volume. Killer music tracks play and your co-workers will love you for it.

Not zombies!
Please refer to my previous ramblings on what the hell a zombie is and why those merry ole Brits are not among them.
I’m sending a letter to Slate.

I should say now that I have not seen Spider-Man 3, nor do I intend to. I’ll even let you in on a little secret: I thought the first two blew elephant balls.
This is all to say that Sam Raimi could have done so much more if he had picked a different franchise route. He’s […]

Been wondering where little Fido is? Well, he’s being kept safe and sound at my Kennel for Insane Evil Veterinarians! Muahahahahahaha!
If you want him to live, you had better come to the 1st annual Cinco de Mayo Sausagefest. Eat some hot dogs, drink some beer and watch some killer cinema. Then, maybe, I’ll let […]

Don’t forget to RSVP for the 1st annual Cinco de Mayo Sausagefest!

Events kick off with Beerfest at 1 p.m. If Netflix comes through, we’ll also be watching Peeping Tom, a great thriller/horror film from 1960s Britain and Cannibal Campout. If I go to Sailor Moon’s […]

I expect more from a movie Web site like CHUD. I guess I should start lowering my expectations from now on.
28 Weeks Later is, of course, the sequel to from-out-of-nowhere powerhouse neo-zombie flick 28 Days Later. Upping the ante this time as zombie franchises tend to do, we’ve got the military full-on in this one […]

My new name for next Saturday’s impromptu film festival is the 1st Annual Cinco de Mayo Sausagefest!
Oh yes, there will be beer.

See what I did there? I used a line from the trailer for Saw II and made it funny and topical.
Do you want to go to Sausagefest? Do you live near Waco? Will […]

With emphasis on the bloody!
Space Monkey and I decided to see a Wednesday movie to prepare for the 1st Annual Nate’s Day of Impromptu Cinema! Or, Nate’s DIC for short. Originally I was going to have a really impromptu film festival this Saturday, but I want some more people than just me and him there, […]
