Always Shine (2016)
Directed by Sophia Takal (Black Christmas) and written by Lawrence Michael Levine — they’re a couple, in case you wondered — this film follows two actresses, Beth (Caitlin FitzGerald) and Anna (Mackenzie Davis), who decide to take a vacation away from Los Angeles to Big Sur. Beth has had career success based more on her […]
25 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE: A Doggone Christmas (2016)
Starring YouTube star Jesse the Jack Russell Terrier — who would go on to be in two sequel, A Doggone Hollywood and A Doggone Adventure — this is the holiday story of Murphy, a telepathic dog that has been taken by the CIA. Yes, the government is ready to liquidate these children in order to […]
SEVERIN BOX SET RELEASE: All the Haunts Be Ours: A Compendium Of Folk Horror Vol. 2: Kindil (2016)
Directed by Damien Ounouri, who wrote the story with Adila Bendimerad (who stars as Nfissa), this is a dark tale of what can happen at the beach. This movie is from Algeria and one of the first I’ve seen from there. Nfissa is a young mother who is violently sexually harassed before she is drowned […]
I HOPE YOU SUFFER OCTOBER FILM CHALLENGE: Amityville Toybox (2016)
EDITOR’S NOTE: The I Hope You Suffer podcast said that “Since everybody is doing these movie challenges now, we made the only one worth doing.” Bring the pain. Did this poster just put one of those horrifying wind-up monkeys in the windows of the house at 112 Ocean Avenue? Well, that’s just not fair. If this movie […]
Antibirth (2016)
Directed and written by Danny Perez, this film is about Lou (Natasha Lyonne) waking up after a party and feeling the same way she did when she was pregnant, more than a year ago, a horrific experience that ended with her losing her baby in a nightclub toilet. Sadie (Chloë Sevigny) believes that she is […]
FantastiCozzi (2016)
This movie by Felipe M. Guerra has bad audio, is kind of dark and feels thrown together. And you know, that’s kind of perfect for Luigi Cozzi, who has made some of my favorite movies on the same budget that most movies spend on paper towels. Cozzi started as a fan, writing to authors and […]
THAN-KAIJU-GIVING: Shin Godzilla (2016)
I know that I am old as this is the 31st Godzilla movie and the third reboot. Actually, there are two reboots going on, the Legendary Pictures movies that started in 2014 with Godzilla and this series, which stars the Reiwa era. Directed by Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi with a script by Anno, this […]
CANNON CANON CATCH-UP: The Nice Guys (2016)
EDITOR’S NOTE: Nothing gives me greater joy than when our site gets mentioned on my favorite podcast, The Cannon Canon. There are a few movies they’ve covered that I haven’t, so it’s time to fix that. If the world was a better place — and it’s not, trust me — we’d have had more than one adventure […]
THE FILMS OF NEIL BREEN: Pass Thru (2016)
“Artificial Intelligence from far into the future arrives to immediately CLEANSE the human species of millions of humans who are harmful to other humans. A VISIONARY, REVOLUTIONARY FILM which pushes the human species to the limits of controversial, thought-provoking actions.” As the film begins, Breen’s character lies dying in the Las Vegas desert, the victim […]
2016 (2010)
Directed by Samuel K. Nkansah — AKA Ninja — 2016 is the kind of movie that doesn’t just bring you xenomorphs and Predators, it also throws in some Terminators. I’m frankly shocked that Chucky didn’t show up. These xenomorphs are way smarter than any we’ve seen in the Aliens series. They’re here to colonize Earth, starting with Accra, […]
