View Article“That’s Right, Bitches. I’ve Got a Crossbow.”
I’ve been on a Chris Evans kick lately, so I decided to watch The Losers again. It’s definitely a problematic movie, but I enjoy it all the same. And Chris Evans isn’t even the only reason! (Though,...

Back for more Scary Clown action? Here it is . . . the rest of It! DISCLAIMER: SERIOUS, MONDO SPOILERS for Part I, Part II, and the book itself. Also, I’m going to compare the miniseries to the book...

Continuing on with bad horror films . . . There’s a sliver of a decent movie somewhere inside Cursed, but it’s mostly buried under worthless characters, inconsistent humor, and a pretty weak lead...
View Article“Well Done. You’ve Just Decapitated Your Grandfather.”
I’ve been pretty much obsessed with The Avengers since I first saw it in 2012, so I knew I’d get around to seeing Thor: The Dark World at some point, despite the fact that Thor is easily my least...
