Donnie Darko 2: The Legend of Curly’s Gold 2008-05-09 15:45:14 I’m not one of the DonnieDarko
fanclub. That bubbling cauldron of speculation as to just what the fuck that movie was about. That dungeon of discussion about which version of the movie is the better version. The theatrical cut or the director’s cut (answer: director’s cut). I like it, but Donnie is a movie [...] Read more:Curly

Cinema Suicide: A New Beginning 2008-05-09 11:17:20 Maybe you noticed it, maybe you didn’t. We went offline for about an hour while we switched hosts. Since the inception of the site, we were mooching off of Andrew Watson and his generosity by sitting in a folder on his host account and we certainly appreciate everything he did for us as [...] Read more:Cinema

Cinema S & The Cult of New Media 2008-05-11 21:32:38 I had avoided Twitter for a real long time because I couldn’t understand it. I considered it an inferior messaging app but once we began our push into social media here at Cinema

Cinema Suicide forums 2008-05-13 12:23:00 Listen. I know I made an announcement about the forums back when they launched a couple of months ago but they don’t get a lot of traffic so I figured I’d point them out again and make everyone aware.
I love discussion forums. I’m a regular member of a couple dozen different ones for [...] Read more:Cinema

Coming Soon! Faces of Death Special Edition! 2008-05-12 22:09:34 I can’t say that I’m entirely excited about a special edition DVD release of the first Faces of Death movie but there’s really something to be said about it. Before I saw it, back when I was a little kid combing the shelves at the video store, it had a dangerous allure. A label proudly [...] Read more:Coming Soon

X-Files 2 trailer hits! 2008-05-12 11:40:55 Say what you want about the movie’s title. I was resigned to see this from the moment I heard about the production. A part of me still pines for those sunday nights (formerly Fridays) of that paranormal shit made mainstream by great writing and acting. Two of television’s greatest characters mired in [...]
American Spaced cancelled. There was much rejoicing. 2008-05-12 08:57:37 A while back I reported that Fox and McG were in the process of producing an American
flavored spin on the British comedy hit, Spaced. I expressed great disappointment in this. I also predicted that it would be cancelled after 5 episodes.
Looks like I was wrong.
American Spaced was cancelled after no episodes.
If you had any [...]
Dawn of the Dead in 3-D! 2008-05-14 23:02:35 I’ve never really thought about it, but there are plenty of scenes in Romero’s original masterpiece, Dawn of the Dead, that would go over fantastic if viewed through the red and blue lenses of a pair of 3-D glasses. I won’t lie to you. I LOVE 3-D. It’s a gimmick that I [...]
“They Wait” To Waste Your Time, Eat Your Oranges 2008-05-14 12:26:39 Cube Zero director Ernie Barbarash’s generic 2007 supernatural clunker They Wait is exactly the type of second-rate, slapdash motion picture you’d expect from executive producer/Internet hate object Uwe Boll. In addition to being highly illogical and beyond boring, the film provides little in the way of actual entertainment, effectively lulling the prospective viewer into the [...] Read more:Oranges
By comparison, childbirth will be a breeze, lady. Inside aka l’interieur 2008-05-13 23:25:33 Maybe you’ve been around long enough to remember this but my daughter was born back in August and something really fucking weird happened to me. In an instant, my view of the world took on this entirely new dimension where things that didn’t bother me in the past, suddenly shocked the shit out of [...] Read more:comparison
Wolverines??? MGM to remake Red Dawn. 2008-05-19 09:27:49 I’ve been tolerant of remakes since the wave started gaining momentum mostly because there’s nothing I can do about them, people seem to like remakes and no one’s forcing me to see them but this has gone far enough.
The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that MGM has two more on the slate, one that could potentially [...]
everyone loses when rich kids fight Commies in “Toy Soldiers” 2008-05-18 20:45:31 Central America in the 1980s was a complicated place, a Cold War hotspot with Marxist revolutionary groups dueling with dictatorial regimes, counter-revolutionary forces squaring off against newly installed Communist governments, and the U.S. government trying to play both sides against each other. You needed a scorecard just to keep track of who’s a Contra and [...] Read more:everyone

The perfect B-Movie! Guest starring Remo D. 2008-05-20 22:41:24 Hey, folks. A while back it struck me that maybe I wasn’t doing quite enough with this blog as I could have.

Attack of the Spaghetti Clones: The Humanoid 2008-05-21 22:29:13 When Star Wars was released in 1977, the Italians were already working hard to pump out their amazing rip-offs we know and love them for. Hack director Luigi Cozzi’s 1979 schlock masterpiece Starcrash may be the most infamous of the George Lucas replications (and features a young pre-Knight Rider David Hasselhoff in his second [...] Read more:Clones

Wrestling Women Vs The Aztec Mummy 2008-05-21 08:12:03 I have to admit that I have quite the obsession with Mexican B-cinema from the good old days. Typically, my obsession tends to fall on the Mexican National Heroes of both action cinema and the ring, the Luchador. Real, live super-heroes who can just as easily pile-drive an opponent in the ring as fight off [...] Read more:Aztec

Identity Crisis Defined. Atlantis Interceptors. 2008-05-23 23:35:41 Occasionally a movie will find its way to my DVD player and leave me wondering how in the hell it hasn’t infiltrated greater cult circles. In Atlantis
Interceptors’ case, I’m sure it has something to do with it landing between Cannibal Holocaust and Cut and Run in Ruggero Deodato’s career. The House on [...] Read more:Crisis

We are so ghost-fucked! Get Lazer Ghosts 2 for your iPod 2008-05-23 11:59:53 I defy you watch this trailer and tell me that it doesn’t look like the greatest movie ever conceived. Astron-6 Video International turned up a lost direct to video gem (not really) from 1991 and put it on the internet for your downloading pleasure.

“Bryan Loves You” Headed For Anchor Bay 2008-05-23 07:52:37 Critically acclaimed writer/director Seth Landau’s outstanding atmospheric chiller Bryan
Loves You — a film yours truly has declared to be “an Orwellian nightmare for the YouTube generation” — is finally coming to DVD this fall thanks to genre-friendly distributor Anchor Bay. This eerie fact-based feature, starring Seth Landau, Tony Todd, George Wendt, Daniel Roebuck,
Posters for Ong-Bak 2! 2008-05-26 11:34:32 Word around Cannes was that Tony Jaa’s latest flick (also directed by the rising star, himself), tentatively titled Ong-Bak 2, was pretty bad ass. Plot details are still pretty thin but as it stands, Jaa plays a fighter raised by a collective of martial artists from different schools of fighting and as such he [...] Read more:Posters
Craving Blood, Brains, And Brawn? “Rambo” Is Your Man. 2008-05-27 12:41:34 There’s a scene that arrives early in Sylvester Stallone’s bloody 2008 action extravaganza Rambo
(aka John Rambo) that should, in theory, help soothe the irritated souls of those who believed this unnecessary sequel wouldn’t capture the balls-out intensity of our hero’s previous adventures. The sequences, without giving too much away, is a brutal, uncompromising confrontati Read more:Blood

… Too bad we can’t stay. “A Haunting” Season 3 hits DVD. 2008-05-27 08:21:55 Let’s face it, paranormal TV is the new black. It seems that you can’t flip the channels without running into a T.A.P.S. or a Paranormal State. The majority of these shows fail to hold my interest for more than a minute or so, honestly, how long can I watch a couple dudes run [...] Read more:Season
This can only end in tears. Plan 9 From Outer Space being remade. 2008-05-27 07:28:49 This is probably the worst news I’ve heard all year. Maybe even last year. Worse than a remake of Red Dawn.
Darkstone Entertainment is gearing up to remake Ed Wood’s timeless piece of crap, Plan 9 From Outer Space
. The official website states that the intention is to make it in Wood’s original [...]

The Return of Independent Horror: Beyond the Dunwich Horror Premiers 2008-05-29 07:28:26 When I went to the premiere showing of Beyond the Dunwich Horror at the Columbus Theatre in Providence, I wasn’t sure what I was in for. Horror fans are divided over director Richard Griffin’s work; some love and admire the man for his clever scripts, unique camera work, and working with a miniscule [...] Read more:Premiers
