Today talk all things about dragons and just why Dragonslayer’s Vermithrax is the BEST dragon ever put to film! I checked it out on blu-ray after decades and it HOLDS up. So much so that it makes a mockery of all the CGI dragons Hollywood has churned out over the years! This classic fantasy film…

Today I’m talkin’ all things HE-MAN and the Masters of the Universe! As a LEGIT 80’s kid who was obsessed with the toys and the TV show I’m giving you the “no BS” talk about the franchise and where it’s at today! Can this new film top the 80’s version?! Does 2026 HE-MAN need steroids?!…

More 80’s legacy sequels on the way, this time it’s ‘GREMLINS 3’! As a big fan of the original we’re gonna talk today about the 5 ways Hollywood is gonna screw this up. I’m convinced Hollywood is incapable of making films the way they used to even if they promise they’re going to back to…

Are you a fan of films like The Howling, Dog Soldiers, Full Eclipse or even Predator: 2?! If so I think you’re probably gonna dig ‘Werewolves’ just as much as I did! Practical werewolves brought…

I’ve been in a bit HP Lovecraft land as of late, watching some pretty cool old and new stuff inspired by the iconic horror writer. As a HUGE fan of the Hellboy comic books as well as the Guillermo del Toro films, (which I do really love but never felt like a true representation go…

I totally forgot that there was yet ANOTHER Hellboy film in production, after the last installment of the Neil Marshall (The Descent/Dog Soldiers) ginormous letdown film from 2019-which was so bad I couldn’t even finish it. We now today get the brand new trailer for the Hellboy: The Crooked Man and it really sort of…

HULU finally brings me a grey alien home invasion horror film I’ve asking for-‘No One Will Save You’ delivers a simple premise with some fairly well executed drama but also manages to take the terrifying silent “greys” of movies like ‘Communion’ & ‘Fire in the Sky’ and turns them into loud rubbery CGI lunatics.
