Week 14 (Sept. 20 – 26) – THE END! Post-Apocalyptic Cinema: Make sure to pull the ladder up on the way out Do you think Cirio H. Santiago ever got tired of making post-apocalyptic movies? As a spiritual successor to Equalizer 2000—it has the same star, director, and dystopian DNA—Raiders of the Sun may not have an […]

ARROW VIDEO 4K UHD RELEASE: Identity (2003)
If you read the pitch for James Mangold’s 2003 psychological thriller, you’d be forgiven for rolling your eyes. Ten strangers stranded at a dreary Nevada motel during a torrential downpour? A killer picking them off one by one, counting down by room keys? It sounds like the most mothballed, bargain-bin Agatha Christie homage imaginable, like […]
MGM BLU-RAY RELEASE: The Sheep Detectives (2026)
Cinematic adaptations of whimsical animal literature follow an unspoken rule: keep the stakes low, the puns high, and let the humans chew the scenery while the CGI critters dance. But Craig Mazin’s script for The Sheep Detectives—adapted from Leonie Swann’s 2005 novel Three Bags Full—refuses to play it safe. It is a mystery comedy that […]
NEON BLU-RAY RELEASE: Exit 8 (2026)
What if an indie walking simulator game, set in a sterile Japanese subway hallway, became an exploration of existential dread, domestic panic and impending fatherhood? Video game adaptations often fall into one of two camps. They either cling too tightly to every button prompt and fan service moment until the narrative is stifled. Or worse, […]
RADIANCE BLU-RAY RELEASE: The Magnificent Cuckold (1964)

Directed by Antonio Pietrangeli, […]

September Drive-In Super Monster-Rama 2026: Hellraiser (1987)
September Drive-In Super Monster-Rama is back at The Riverside Drive-In Theatre, September 19 and 20, 2025. Two big nights with four feature films each night include: Horror movies don’t scare me.

Sizzlin’ Summer of Subterranean Psychotronica 2026: Dune Warriors (1991)
Week 14 (Sept. 20 – 26) – THE END! Post-Apocalyptic Cinema: Make sure to pull the ladder up on the way out Directed by low-budget maestro Cirio H. Santiago and executive produced by the king of exploitation himself, Roger Corman, this 77-minute slice of post-apocalyptic, well, magic is less an original motion picture and more of a […]
