Frightening Friday (Movie review): It’s debatable who gives the better reptilian performance: the snake or Jon Voight. But suffice it to say both are entertaining.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): Some of the simplest films are the most beautiful, as this ubiquitous childhood gem gets more timeless with time.
Movie review: More clever than “Anaconda” (1997)? Sure. More entertaining? Not even close.
Turtle Tuesday (Movie commentary): “TMNT” came tantalizingly close to creating a cross-media multiverse the likes of which hadn’t been seen before.
Mel Brooks Monday (Movie review): Though Brooks doesn’t reach Master of Comedy status, the film is a loving parody of the Master of Suspense.
Superhero Saturday (TV review): This odd hero’s journey asks: Can a hoarder’s legacy be redeemed by spreading his comics to people who will love them?
Frightening Friday (Movie review): It’s a folk-horror classic in film-nerd circles, but I suspect most viewers will find it slow and cheesy.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): The off-screen stories are better than the on-screen one, namely the popularization of the name Madison.
Turtle Tuesday (Movie commentary): Eastman and Laird themselves made sure “TMNT” didn’t drift too close to “Halloween.”
Mel Brooks Monday (Movie review): Brooks and Wilder insert jokes while staying true to Mary Shelley’s work.
