According to the movie’s Web site, “The Attic Door” is about two abandoned pioneer siblings who must confront their greatest fear […]

It’s being reported that David Cronenberg has announced he is developing a remake of his own 1986 sci-fi classic “The Fly.” And I thought Rob Zombie would be the next one to remake one of his own movies that was already a remake.

I don’t ask for much when it comes to movies. Hell, I love subtlety and the power of suggestion. But I need at least a little bit of guidance from a filmmaker. Paul Solet gives me none in his feature debut “Grace.” I still have no idea exactly what I watched. What I do know […]

I know the original “Children of the Corn” was bad, but do we really need two remakes to make up for it? Not only is SyFy (still can’t get over what a dumb re-name that was) airing a TV-movie version of “Children of the Corn,” Dimension has announced a theatrical remake already equipped with a […]
