You might have a theater in your town that caters to limited releases and smaller productions, […]
Mona Fastvold's upcoming film, The Testament of Ann Lee, intends to revisit the life of Ann Lee, the British-born founder of the Shakers, an 18th-century religious leader whose worship was characterized by song, rhythm, and a kind of holy tremor that scandalized her contemporaries. And rather than file her into the usual biopic drawer, Fastvold […]
Even with the massive success of Wicked and Wonka, it's still unclear whether or not audiences are back on board for musicals. They have a moment at the box office every couple of years, but by the time the films that were greenlit and made in response to said moment make it to the big screen, people seem […]
Another Zack Snyder passion project is about to hit the ground running, but it will be on a much smaller scale than we have seen from the director in the last couple of years. Following Snyder's tenure in the DC Cinematic Universe, he jumped over to Netflix, where he has attempted to launch not one, but […]
We have another movie celebrating a milestone anniversary and is coming back to theaters for all to enjoy. The 1985 adaptation of Clue was not exactly popular when it was released. The initial reviews were not exactly kind and only grossed $14.6 million a budget of $15 million. However, it's nearly impossible to predict what films will […]
One of the great things that came out of the pandemic was that studios realized how large the market was for classic films, getting big-screen re-releases for fans to check out. As the movies get older, it becomes more and more likely that younger fans weren't even born yet, so they never had the opportunity […]
Indie horror and folklore are a match made in heaven, and for all the times it works, we also see the times it falls apart. However, Rabbit Trap has the added benefit of Dev Patel, who is carving out such a neat little niche for himself in terms of what projects he decides to pursue. This […]
The mop is back, the tutu is back, but this isn't the same Toxic Avenger fans remember from the cult classic 1984 film.

From the threat of destruction to Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Coyote vs. Acme has been on quite the journey over the last couple of years. Warner Bros., following some very rough years during the pandemic, decided the best way to deal with all of that was to write off a bunch of their own […]
It seems we will get another big screen adaptation of Judge Dredd. It's still a crime that Dredd in 2012 failed to find an audience. Perhaps it was the 3D aspect that turned people off, maybe people didn't quite understand what was going on, there are so many reasons that the movie flopped, and they […]
LAIKA has made some of the best animated films of the last ten years, and one that feels like it flew a bit more under the radar was ParaNorman back in 2012. While it did well critically and brought in several awards (am I still mad this movie lost to Brave? This world may never […]
Just when you thought director James Cameron couldn't possibly get any busier, considering there are still three Avatar movies that need to come out, we find out that he is taking on another project. In a press release sent out today (via The Hollywood Reporter and author Joe Abercrombie's official website), Cameron's company, Lightstorm, has purchased the rights to The […]
Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, the 2010 horror-comedy directed by Eli Craig, remains a beloved cult film starring Tyler Labine as Dale and Alan Tudyk as Tucker—flipping the slasher genre by portraying two well-meaning hillbillies mistaken for killers by preppy college students. Its sharp humor, gory charm, and heartfelt friendship earned an impressive 85% approval […]
The fate of Looney Tunes is all over the place. One day, it seems like they are on their way out, and no one will be able to see these classic cartoons again as Max systematically removes all traces of them. Then people got super excited, a film that Warner Bros. almost didn't release, The Day […]

Another video game is heading to the big screen. After many, many years of being the butt of the joke when it comes to adaptation, it seems like studios have started to figure out what works and what doesn't when it comes to adapting games to film. We're seeing more winners instead of nothing but […]
Someday, someone will write a book about everything that went on behind the scenes with Coyote vs. Acme. Somehow, a film that seemed like it would be an easy win for Warner Bros. turned into a rallying cry for the studio's treatment of films in the David Zaslav era. After being told the movie was absolutely […]
Red Sonja is coming back to theaters. Samuel Goldwyn Films has picked up the rights to release the new film that has been done for quite some time in the US and plans to release it in theaters this year.
