Rock And Roll Love Story Stricken By Mutant Fears In BANG BANG BABY Trailer

AnarchyVision: Talking EVIL DEAD, THE SAPPHIRES, JURASSIC PARK 3D and ROGER EBERT RIP

New guest host for this weekend's Twitchvision, but we still managed to get through quite a bit! Talked about the Evil Dead remake (which I found pretty terrible, my sentiments shared by those expressed in Kurt Halfyard's review), Jurassic Park 3D...

Boozie Movies: EVIL DEAD and Falling Out of Love With Sam Raimi

As with any Boozie Movie piece, caution should be exercised when proceeding. There are spoilers ahead and I was a little bit drunk and more than a little bit cranky. But beyond exposing my state of mind it's intended to...
