Adam Page on the pioneering TV shows that dared to be complex before complexity was allowed… I want to talk about something that I think a lot of people have either forgotten about the nineties or, if you’re of a younger age, just aren’t aware of. I’m not talking about the glossy, Friends-sofa, Central Perk […]
J-Horror and the Western Gaze: When Asian Horror Invaded the 90s
Adam Page on the J-horror popularity explosion of the late 90s and its impact on Hollywood… I know I’m starting this with a generalisation, but there is an odd sort of arrogance that comes with being American. It’s not malicious, it’s more of a quiet, deeply held assumption that the best ideas of the world […]
The Omen at 50: The Story Behind the Crown Jewel of Religious Horror
Hasitha Fernando on the story behind The Omen as it turns 50… Religious horror is a subgenre that is not meant for weak minded viewers. From the get-go you are drawn into an unholy world of profanity and darkness that challenges your very beliefs. Over the years different filmmakers have given us many unforgettable religious […]
Blunt Disclosure: Is Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day a Flop or a Hit at the Box Office?
Will Hume on the box office performance of Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day… After 13 days in release, Disclosure Day has reached a defining stage in its theatrical run. The initial rush of audience interest has clearly translated into strong early revenue, and the film currently sits at $165 million worldwide, with a nearly even split […]
Zardoz: When an Actor Needs a Check, and a Director Needs to be Checked
Jack Gayer delves into the cult 1974 Sean Connery sci-fi Zardoz… I’d like to see more movies with a slightly out-of-shape, middle-aged man as the star. They should be hirsute, wearing nothing but a bandolier and what may or may not be a bright red diaper. They also need a Fu Manchu, Wolverine-thick sideburns, and […]
Is AI About to Make Creatives Irrelevant?
Are we at a crossroads with AI, or already way down the road leading to the death of the creative? You can’t halt progress, and when money is being fired at an industry with the velocity of the Death Star’s planet-destroying laser, then it inevitably feels like said industry is unstoppable. Despite everything the Terminator […]
The Crazy Story Behind Hell Comes to Frogtown
Jack Gayer on the backstory behind the 1988 cult classic Hell Comes to Frogtown… “It’s the end of the 20th century, and mankind has blown its wad. The fate of humanity rests in the groin of one man.” This tasteful, informative line, courtesy of the trailer, spells out the tone and plot of Hell Comes […]
Gymkata: The Terrible Spy/Karate/Horror Film You Need to See
Jack Gayer on Gymkata, and why you need to see it… “Unintentionally hilarious” is not a label one strives for. But there’s certainly some magic when it happens. “Did I really see that?” you often wonder. Gymkata (1985) is full of such moments. Laughs are to be had, entirely at the film’s expense. Little about […]

With writing already in progress, casting changes emerging, and production gearing up in California, season 3 appears to be moving quickly toward a likely […]
