Not the gory bloodbath that I’d been “warned” about, but gorehounds will be pleased at the amount of red in this horror tale set during WWII. A story that combines war thriller with body horror in a way that kept my eyes firmly on screen, not wanting to miss a moment.
There’s plenty of suspense as the group of American soldiers try to figure out what’s turning their mission into something much more sinister, thanks to stellar performances by Jovan Adepo as newly minted Private Boyce, Wyatt Russell as Corporal Ford (Kurt’s son does his poppa’s snarl proud) and GoT’s Pilou Asbæk as baddie Wafner. Combined with excellent direction by Julius Avery and stellar cinematography by Laurie Rose and Fabian Wagner, this means Overlord is one helluva fun, engaging ride.
Hey fellow Hufflepuffs! Okay, all y’all. I’ve got passes for Tuesday night’s advance screening of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald!
Rescue Me was one hell of a compelling show, and comedian Dennis Leary more than proved his acting chops as firefighter Tommy Gavin. Now Mill Creek Entertainment gathers the entire series into one super-deluxe Blu-Ray set, and I’ll admit I’m drooling. Okay, I’m also setting aside Kleenex, as this show runs the gamut of emotions. Plus, who doesn’t want a Dennis Leary commentary track? You know that’s gonna be gold.
Nutshell: let’s let Freddie do it, shall we? “I feel alive/And the world—I’ll turn it inside out/Yeah/I’m floating around/In ecstasy”. Yep, that sums it up. The bar has been raised for the musical biopic. Good luck to future films in this genre, this film is damn near perfect. It’ll be tough to top Rhapsody‘s blend of storytelling and pulls-you-in performances. Grade: A
This collection of Vertigo comics by chef, traveler and late great foodie delves into ghosts, monsters and other sorts of creepies, all tied in with a food theme. A man who loves (to eat) horses, a chef who picked up a hell of a parasite, and more, there’s plenty of strange and unusual tales to paw through on this lovely Halloween.
“I would like to be Maria, but there is the Callas I that have to live up to.”
Good morning everybody! I’ve got passes for The Outlaw King, a groovy new history-based movie coming to Netflix…but why not see it on the big screen? Bigger is better, especially when it comes to awesome historical battles! Synopsis!
“No one is as dumb as I appear to be.”
“Boy’s locker room? Smells like something died in here!”
