REVIEW: Livelihood 2008-04-27 10:34:00 Beware of shady corporate samurais.
It's no well-kept secret that everyone on this unholy planet is indirectly connected to a group of individuals who are either working on a full-length zombie feature or have just released their undead abomination on one wonky website or another. Depressing, dear readers, but very true. That said, Ryan Graham's thoughtful 2005 deadpan comedy Livelihood is a
NEWS: The Fiend Commits Cinema Suicide 2008-05-02 22:30:00 And I adore GTA IV.
Hey, there! Remember me? Sorry it's been a while since I've updated this silly little site, but a few impossibly exciting things have taken place over the past several days. First, I greedily collected my pre-ordered copy of Grand Theft Auto IV, promptly fell in love, and ultimately neglected to do anything else with my oh-so precious spare time this week. And, yes, it really Read more:Cinema

REVIEW: Wieners 2008-06-10 01:30:00 Even with mustard, it's still just animal parts.
Mark Steilen's unexpectedly mundane 2008 comedy Wieners is, in my rough estimation, the sort of second-rate direct-to-video motion picture one generally watches after consuming large amounts of cheap alcohol in the unfinished basement of a friend's sparsely-decorated house. In other words, this one's strictly for the boys -- women need not apply.
REVIEW: The Raiders Of Atlantis 2008-06-27 22:46:00 It's just a bunch of trees.
Infamous Cannibal Holocaust director Ruggero Deodato's silly 1983 action knock-off The Raiders
of Atlantis
(aka The Atlantis Interceptors) is quite possibly one of the most unintentionally confusing movies ever to grace my highly perplexed television screen. Working from a script that was clearly written while binging on big-budget Hollywood drivel, Deodato assaults
REVIEW: Pathology 2008-06-27 22:23:00 Crack-smoking lipstick lesbians love autopsies.
Didn't hypersexual, WB-style hackwork like this go out of style over ten years ago? Apparently not. Arriving like a diseased uncle you assumed had perished back in the late 90's, German director Marc Schoelermann's glossy psychological head game Pathology
would love for you to consider it an edgy, shocking, taboo-busting genre explosion like no
REVIEW: War, Inc. 2008-06-24 02:21:00 Is that a scorpion in your Duff?
Joshua Seftel's lofty 2008 comedic thriller War, Inc. is an admittedly tough nut to crack. Despite biting off more than it could ever possibly chew, the film's dry, cynical analysis of the Iraqi war and America's inherent consumerism is as amusing as it is sly. Assuming, of course, that you haven't grown impossibly tired of Hollywood's endless liberal drive to
REVIEW: Drunken Master III 2008-06-23 17:58:00 Sobriety really sucks.
After leaving the production of the 1994 Jackie Chan masterpiece Drunken Master
II (aka Legend of the Drunken Master) due to various problems with its formidable star, famed Hong Kong director LauKar-Leung spitefully delivered his own brand of alcoholic nonsense, the surprisingly dry kung fu clunker Drunken Master III, or, as it states on my Black Belt Theater
