MILL CREEK DVD RELEASE: Through the Decades: 2010s Collection: MacGruber (2010)
Directed by The Lonely Island’s Jorma Taccone, MacGruber does what all SNL films do: stretch a short segment into a full movie.

With the release of Prey, it’s time to break down all of the Predator movies in one place and try and figure out why I love this franchise so much when I outright hate at least one of these movies. The inspiration for the film came from a joke that after Rocky IV, Stallone had run out […]
