Fight Or Flight Review
When your favorite movie is from a particular sub-genre, it can mean one of two things. You either grade that sub-genre really kindly because you know you love it, or you grade it harshly because any competition has an uphill battle to measure up. With me, my favorite movie is somehow NOT from the horror genre, which shocks even me. No, my favorite film of … Continue reading Fight Or Flight Review
Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 25
Chapter 25 The lobby chair had a comforting material that Sam couldn’t quite identify; it felt like a kind of faux-Linoone fur (at least, Sam hoped it was faux). It was so soft that, where it touched Sam’s skin, he couldn’t feel any particular strand of it—it just all blended into one wash of luxury against him. The chair coddled him and relaxed him and … Continue reading Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 25
Don’t Log Off Review
I just recently, as of this writing, passed one hundred movies released in 2025 watched. In that hundred films, I’ve obviously seen a lot of movies in theaters and that were big, major releases (Predator: Badlands was officially #100, for instance), but you don’t get to that figure without finding a lot of independent flicks on streaming services. When you watch a lot of indie … Continue reading Don’t Log Off Review
Sing Street Review
Guys. Guys, I think I like musicals, guys. And this has been a really disappointing revelation in my life. I guess I always wanted to be one of those people that was “too cool” for musicals. “Why is everyone just busting out until song?” I’d ask. “Why are the extras in the background happily partaking in their music?”. It all seems so odd, right? Aliens … Continue reading Sing Street Review
Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein Review
I need to watch more of the classic Universal Horror features from the 1930’s through 1950’s. I’ve seen a handful of them, sure, but there are several more out there. For instance, I have skipped The Mummy and The Phantom Of The Opera because I had heard they didn’t quite measure up to the rest. But maybe I’ll dig them anyway when I try them … Continue reading Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein Review
Episode 163: Persepolis

Rashomon Review
It’s funny to me, but in the last three years, I’ve seen FAR more movies released prior to 1970 than I had in my entire life combined leading up to that trio of years. Hell, you could almost certainly make that about movies made prior to 1980! It’s not that I had a particularly strong bias against “old” movies; it’s just that I never felt … Continue reading Rashomon Review
Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #10-1
We are back, and when we last looked at this list, we counted down #20-11 of the best non-new-release films that I watched in 2025. I had seen 169 such movies in the calendar year, so we are talking some great pictures across the board here. Everything from #20 onward has been at least a 4.0 out of 5.0! Now it’s time to finish this … Continue reading Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #10-1
Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #20-11
So far this January, I’ve discussed the worst movies that released in 2025 and my favorite movies that came out in that same year. But it’s time to leave the past in the past, as we move on to looking at… the more distant past, I suppose? My perpetual New Year’s Resolution for the past few years is to watch 200 movies in a calendar … Continue reading Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #20-11
Ranking The Franchise: Alien
I love ranking franchises! Even bad franchises. And I think that’s what shocked me the most after my recent watch of the entire Alien franchise: it’s not particularly good! Whereas many of the classic horror franchises I’ve ranked to this point (your Halloweens and your Friday The 13ths and your Child’s Plays, etc) tend to have a roller coaster like experience of highs and lows, … Continue reading Ranking The Franchise: Alien
Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 24
Chapter 24 As Sam stood outside Rowan’s laboratory in Sandgem Town and stared through it, he couldn’t help but imagine it a cold, stone castle on a jagged mountainside. Despite the typically Sandgemian beautiful day of sunshine and blue skies, Sam could have sworn he saw a malevolent lightning bolt crack behind the lab and silhouette it in shadows. Tommy and Miah emerged from the … Continue reading Brothers’ Bond: A Pokemon Story, Chapter 24

All right, after two rounds of foreplay, we are ready for the main event, as we count down the top ten (well, MY top ten) movies of 2025. This is just the culmination of my completely subjective listing of the films that brought me the most joy over the last twelve months! I am excited to share them with you and hear your favorites in … Continue reading Top Ten Movies Of 2025: #10-1
Episode 162: Across The Spider-Verse
Author James H. Roby joins The Order this episode to discuss the sequel to one of Stew’s favorite movies of all time. But does this one hold a candle to the original? For more from James, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 162: Across The Spider-Verse
Chain Reactions Review
Let’s get this straight out of the way because it really matters to this review and will come up again as I talk about Chain Reactions: I’m far from the world’s biggest fan of the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre. (Now Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, that’s a different story. I kind of love that movie) To be absolutely fair, I’ve only seen the 1974 horror classic … Continue reading Chain Reactions Review
