This past weekend, I made the four hour trip down to Baltimore for the 25th edition of the Baltimore Comic Con. It was my first time ever visiting Baltimore for their annual convention; I had previously only ever been to the city for AEW’s Full Gear pay-per-view event in 2019. My visits to The Old Line State are typically at the other end of it … Continue reading Baltimore Comic Con 2024 Review
I’m probably napping too much these days. It’s not for lack of having things to do. I have fallen very far off of my pace on these articles. I used to have a cache of 15-20 ready at given time, but that’s down to a little more than five. I keep thinking “I have a few things to read; I’ll blow through them and write … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Bitch Planet
My house now has a steel cage, and that’s kind of neat. In our eternal quest to make sure our cats can leads their best lives, my wife decided to buy some weird fence kind of material and cage in our front and back porches. Now that kitties can go outside with actually being able to GO anywhere. It’s kind of weird looking, I’ll be … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Dr. Strange – Damnation

From the genre of Movies That Never Needed To Be A Franchise, we bring you the third film in The Strangers extended universe: The Strangers: Chapter One. The first The Strangers movie was a sleeper hit with its small budget (nine million dollars) weighed against massive box office success (over 82 million). It was a movie I personally found half-satisfying. For the front end, the … Continue reading The Strangers: Chapter One Review
You know… I’m not sure I ever had an imaginary friend, such as they are. Which is weird because I grew up as a single child, so I was in the prime market for making one. Or perhaps I just forgot all about whatever one I did have, such as media is found of telling people happens to kids as they grow up. But I … Continue reading IF Review
CHAPTER 10: Now… Natalie watched as Aaron bent the metal doorframe around Ms. O’Shea’s classroom door, sealing in the three strange, faceless kids that had just attacked them. It had been his idea to block them inside a room until something else could be done. It was that or kill them after all, and despite Nat’s enraged efforts, they had found themselves unwilling to cross … Continue reading The Chosen: Chapter 10
You ever hear of those people who start with, like, a toothpick and trade their way up to something ridiculous like a Lamborghini? I’m like the opposite of that. A looooong time ago, I was really into collecting and playing Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. It was an awful habit; 2/10, I don’t recommend. Anyway, I was staying with my family for a while, and I wanted something … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Bleach
Kitty The Killer is a new revenge-action flick, in the same vein as the John Wick movies, from the Far East. I’m… kind of John Wick’ed out these days from action movies that have taken the success of Keanu Reeves’ franchise to the core of their heart, but I really enjoyed the trailer, so I definitely wanted to give this one a go. It looked … Continue reading Kitty The Killer Review
The city provides! Honey B and Precious D from Monster Movie Fun Time Go! return to The Order to discuss what is very much Frank Miller’s interpretation of The Spirit. For more from MMFTG, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 112: The Spirit
I heard some other theater patrons talking about The Fall Guy as they left the auditorium, and they were comparing notes on how well the movie followed the TV show vis a vis how well 21 Jump Street did the same. I’m going to go ahead and be honest: that was the first time it even occurred to me that this movie was based on … Continue reading The Fall Guy Review
Marvel’s dissection of the still-living body of Dark Horse Comics continues. Years after having acquired the comic publishing rights to Star Wars—a previous boon for the independent company—Marvel has recently purchased the licenses for the Alien and Predator lines. Why does Marvel need or want those? It’s not like Dark Horse is such a threat to them that they have to chip away at this … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Black Hammer
Drawing comparisons to Paranormal Activity and Skinamarink, Life of Belle haunts SCREAMBOX on May 17. The found footage film attempts to piece together the mysterious disappearance of a young girl. I’ll take sleight issue with that summary from Screambox, as aside from the fact that there are children involved, Life Of Belle is nothing like Skinamarink. Oh, there’s a lot of Paranormal Activity here to … Continue reading Life Of Belle Review
And we are back! When last we discussed A24, I mentioned I had finally gotten up to twenty-four films from the studio that I have seen. Seeing as how that is apparently their favorite number, I decided to rank all of them. Last time, we covered #24-#13. We are back this time to get through the rest, so let’s do that now! 12. The Whale … Continue reading Stew Ranks His First Twenty-Four A24 Movies! #12-1
Something something Snyder Cut. Yeah, so the long-awaited Zack Snyder cut of Justice League is due to be released somewhat soon/eventually on HBO’s new streaming service. A lot of folks have been petitioning for this for quite some time, and I guess they are finally going to get it. I’m not one of them. I’m not opposed to the release, and if it makes people … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: JLA by Grant Morrison
