Even with TRON we pushed the Disney envelope and with OBLIVION we pushed ourselves right out of the envelope. It was clear it was a square peg […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jamie Kennedy, Laurie Metcalf, Jerry O’Connell, Jada Pinkett, Live Schreiber Writer: Kevin Williamson Director: Wes Craven Distributor: Lionsgate Suggested Retail Price: $19.99 It was certainly going to take a lot to deliver a satisfying follow-up to the surprise hit SCREAM, but by bringing back most of the surviving cast, writer Kevin Williamson and director Wes Craven, SCREAM 2 proved to be a halfway decent horror sequel.

Interview: THE LINCOLN LAWYER composer Cliff Martinez lays down the law

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER
Composer Cliff Martinez

Now Martinez literally picks up that beautifully menacing drive again with THE LINCOLN LAWYER, its passenger’s conflicted soul […]Read On »
