Remember, like, fifteen years ago when Jean-Claude Van Damme starred in the fictional portrayal of his life, JCVD? It was supposed to be a renaissance for the actor where he would start taking more serious roles and begin getting more respect. There was actual, legitimate talk that Van Damme–JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME–could someday be an awards-worthy actor (it’s arguable that he deserved to be awarded for … Continue reading Darkness Of Man Review
Reena from the Better Call Daddy podcast is here this episode to discuss this long-forgotten TV movie from the mid-1990’s. It was a pilot that never got picked up, but how was Generation X and how does it hold up in 2024? For more from Better Call Daddy, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 113: Generation X
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

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
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

Fittingly, I have now seen 24 movies from the A24 film studio. It feels like I have to have seen more than that. A24 has been one of the biggest studios of the last several years. It seems as though every other movie that comes out nowadays is released by the near-ubiquitous production company. And yet, I’ve somehow only seen twenty-four of them. Weird. At … Continue reading Stew Ranks His First Twenty-Four A24 Movies! #24-13
It’s always a pleasant surprise when you see a big-time, successful actor as the star of a new independent film and–after worrying that they may just be in a it for a few minutes to get the paycheck–they end up the actual star of the show. Such is the case with the new flick, Cash Out, starring John Travolta. I was concerned we wouldn’t actually … Continue reading Cash Out Review

DIRECTED & PRODUCED BY STEPHEN MOYER STARRING & PRODUCED BY ACADEMY-AWARD WINNER ANNA PAQUIN & BAFTA-AWARD NOMINEE RAY WINSTONE SCREENPLAY BY REBECCA CALLARD, based on her Bruntwood Prize-nominated play of the same name. A Bit Of Light is a heartfelt yet wryly comic drama about addiction, responsibility, self-acceptance and the value of kindness. Okay, stories about addiction really get to me, man. I say this … Continue reading A Bit Of Light Review
I simultaneously hate and also love when I am wrong about a movie. We have all been there. We’ve gone into a new flick with either expectations sky high or deeply buried. And we walk out realizing everything we thought we were going to get was wrong. On the one hand, it can be a great feeling to know your entire anticipatory cart was just … Continue reading Civil War Review
What Is Buried Must Remain haunts SCREAMBOX on April 12. A modern ghost story with ancient roots, the timely Lebanese found footage hybrid finds young filmmakers confronted by supernatural forces engaged in a war for the very soul of the land. I appreciate a good found footage movie, and I’m a pretty easy mark for one. I don’t know exactly why that is. To be … Continue reading What Is Buried Must Remain Review
