Destroy All Monsters: World War C (Critics vs. Celebrities)
I'll be the first to go to the mat saying that The Lone Ranger didn't get a fair shake in a lot of circles. I can do that because I'm in one of those circles, and not standing in the...

TTTT: WORLD WAR Z As A Taut Thriller; THE BLING RING As The Right Movie At The Right Time

Review: WORLD WAR Z aka Zombies With Brad Shuffles, Stumbles, Drops Dead
I had little hope for this 'adaptation' when the first trailer popped up. Abandoning almost everything from the gripping and terrifying novel by Max Brooks, director Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace) instead funnels the story into a singular narrative that...

Zombies On A Plane! - New WORLD WAR Z Trailer
It's been a long, long time coming, but a movie adaptation of Max Brooks' best-selling book World War Z (unsurprisingly with little resemblance to the tome other than its title) is in fact coming. With a June 21st release date...

There And Back Again: ScreenAnarchy Survives The 14th Butt-Numb-A-Thon
For my second year in a row, I made my way down to Austin, Texas, home of the infamous celebration of Movie Geekery known as Butt-Numb-a-Thon. This was the fourteenth iteration of this mad festival, what amounts to an...
That's A Big Tower O' Zombies! Here's The Trailer For WORLD WAR Z
For a moment, let's forget all the pre-production, production and post-production woes we've heard about on Marc Forster's adaption of Max Brooks' zombie apocalypse novel, and take a gander at the first real look we have of the Brad Pitt...

FF 2009 Review. Ninja Assassin
I knew pretty much exactly what to expect when I walked in to the screening of Ninja Assasin tonight. A glossy, slick, maybe even a little homoerotic, action film with a wafer thin plot and lots of CGI enhanced action....
Fantastic Fest 2009: Ninja Assassin
I understand fully that the point of being critical about a Hollywood film about Ninjas could be considered by some to be an exercise in futility. Really. Did anyone expect this to be good? I just really want to take...
