I think it's pretty easy to see by now that I love anime. In the past three months I think I've talked about and reviewed more anime features than Hollywood features, which totally has nothing to do with the fact that every movie is being d...
I'm dedicated here. I'm dedicated to bringing you the news of the box office even if that news is nothing. Literally nothing. I mean, there are some theaters in the USA showing things so some movie made money somewhere but no one is reporti...

It was just earlier this month that Netflix premiered the third season of gothic gallivant Castlevania to continued praise of the classic game adaptation. Our own Jesse Lab was a fan, and generally it seems the series enjoys a strong f...

They say that opposites don't attract, but sometimes they do, because that's how magnets work. Perhaps this little-known science fact explains how an alien family crash-lands on a craphole planet like Earth in the above teaser for Solar Op...
Since we all have a ton of free tome on our hands now, it seems like the perfect time to watch some TV or movies that have been on your backlog for years! I know that I've been going through a ton of anime and series like Killing Eve during...

With theaters finally reopening in China after being closed for months, China Film Group is looking to make bank with the renewed interest in going to the cinema. Much like how WB is re-releasing Harry Potter, the firm is putting 2009's Ava...

It probably goes without saying, but A24's elevated horror of the year, Saint Maud has officially been pulled from release with no new date yet announced. With theaters across the globe shutdown, there wouldn't have been many venues left to...
Wonder Woman 1984 has finally been delayed. It was bound to happen given the fact that theaters are indefinitely shuttered and coronavirus in the U.S. isn't slowing down, but Warner Bros. definitely dragged their feet about. While othe...
Ghosts are pretty creepy, on that I think we can agree. Every culture has its own version of the supernatural scaremonger, whether it's the British idea of some dead folks mostly haunting creepy old manors, the American concept of entities...

Seeing as how most of the world is in a self-imposed isolation, or social distancing as we're now calling it, not a whole lot is happening in the film industry. The world and culture in general have just kind of been put on pause while we p...
As the film and television industry--really, every industry--continues to grapple with the debilitating global COVD-19 pandemic, AMC's flagship apocalypse is being put on hold for the time being.
In a groundbreaking occurrence since box office numbers have been tracked this is the first weekend ever that the box office was $0. No movie made any money in theaters because all theaters have been shuttered. Well, not all of them, but th...
Season two of the FX series What We do in the Shadows premieres next month, and the new trailer promises more vampiric hijinks. Rejoining the bloodthirsty roommates in their attempt to take over Staten Island (or at least expand beyon...
One thing that can't be said regarding Christopher Nolan's finale to his Dark Knight trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, is that it was a flop. Something that does flop, though? Penises. With that in mind, it has come as a great shock to us whe...
We seem to be entering a "post-coronavirus delay" period with Hollywood. While the past few weeks have been wrought with news of major projects and films getting pushed back because of the ongoing global pandemic, some studios are now shift...

As someone who has spent his entire adult life guzzling horror movies the same way others do their morning coffee, I can attest to the fact that death is like caffeine--the more, the better. It brings me joy to announce, then, that Artsploi...
This is just the sort of high-energy, tongue-in-cheek blood-soaked mayhem in the name of the devil that gets my heart thumping. Reminiscent of last year's Satanic Panic, We Summon the Darkness looks like it's going to be a nonstop blast of...
Plenty of film clips can be tired, boring wastes of time where nothing really happens, and you feel the marketing team grabbed any random half-minute from the movie and called it a day. That is very much not the case in the above clip for ...
Whenever someone's rich parent dies, there's always a sort of struggle of wills (over the will) that follows. Whether it be the literal throat stabbing of You're Next or the more disappointing realization that all your dad left you was a c...

I have a soft spot in my heart for budget Vin Diesel action movies. Yes, The Fast and Furious is a billion-dollar empire but Diesel dramatically gruffs his way through other franchises as well. There's a certain magic to it all: sometimes...
Netflix has shown commitment to their adaptation of Altered Carbon, the sci-fi series of books by Richard K Morgan. Chronicling the interstellar exploits of special operator and brooding-type Takeshi Kovacs, two seasons of Altered Carbon ar...
Sadly, the DCU films did not do well even though they had an amazing cast. Amy Adams brought Lois Lane to life alongside Henry Cavil's amazing Superman. Now, although there has been no talk of a new Superman film or even a contin...
Next to The Sopranos, the series finale for Game of Thrones is one of the most hotly debated endings in recent memory. Basically concluding the grand series with no build-up, fans were pretty miffed about how deuteragonist Daenerys Targarye...
