Press screenings for “Black Swan,” starring Natalie Portman, are under way today and the first reviews are showing up on Rotten Tomatoes. The film debuts tonight at the Venice Film Festival. So far, it’s gotten two good reviews and one not-so-good. Here’s the run-down so far: Hollywood Reporter: “Trying to coax a horror-thriller out of […]

Geek movies come and go but “Scott Pilgrim vs. The World” is what those movies only wish they could be when they grow up. Edgar Wright‘s video-game/comic-based fantasy-action-comedy, upon first glance, seems like a lot of things it’s not: A film aimed only at nerds, a film that’s trying to play into too many genres, […]

Tomorrow is Friday the 13th, so I know some of us horror fans will be celebrating it with viewings of one of the most popular horror franchises ever. So in honor of the unluckiest day of the year, I’ve compiled our Top Five movies from the original “Friday the 13th” franchise. 1. “Friday the 13th: […]

It’s time to look back at a cinematic masterpiece. One that cannot and should not be forgotten. “Clue.” Based on the Parker Brothers board game, the 1985 brilliance is somewhat underrated. Which is completely sad. The movie, of course, is a spoof of the board game and the era its set in (1950s McCarthyism). The […]

I can’t decide how I feel about Saturday Night Live‘s movie version of Macgruber that is coming out May 21st.

In fact, I’m excited about it, because Rose has always been my favorite Golden Girl. Make sure you tune in to […]

Pictured: Robert Downey Jr. and Don Cheadle To say that I was excited to see Iron Man 2 would be an understatement. While I am admittedly not the hugest comic book fan out there, I am a big enough fan of the movie renditions (as long as they don’t suck like Daredevil did). I am […]

TMZ is reporting that following today’s death of actress Brittany Murphy, her husband Simon Monjack has apparently opposed an autopsy on his wife by the Los Angeles County Cororner’s office. Blogs, of course, are starting to speculate on Monjack’s involvment in the actress’ death. There has been no word on the cause of death, other […]

Apparently Ryan Reynolds shirtless wasn’t enough (really? that wasn’t enough?) for a successful 2005 remake of horror classic “The Amityville Horror.” Bloodydisgusting.com is reporting that Dimenstion and the Weinsteins are planning to bring the movie back to the big screen. But it’s only been four years. I’ve made my thoughts on remakes public here before, […]
