Stars: Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Tamar Braxton, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 9th, 2015 Emotional is one way to describe DANCING WITH THE STARS: Week Nine, another is surprising. This week, the couples had two dances to do, one with their partners and another with their partners and another couple. Two of those couples who were paired together earned a perfect 60. Sadly, one of those couples, Alexa PenaVega & Mark Ballas were eliminated at show’s end. The other couple – Bindi Irwin & Derek Hough  – stayed strong and safe. Once […]Read On »

Actress Julie Benz tends to be known for her work in darker, grittier fare, from her big-screen debut in TWO EVIL EYES to her series regular gig as a cop on ROSWELL to her crucial recurring role as the vampire Darla on BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER and ANGEL to the doomed Rita Morgan on DEXTER and the morally grounded mayor/madam Amanda Rosewater on three seasons of Syfy’s DEFIANCE. However, Benz’s softer side is on view in the new Hallmark holiday movie CHARMING CHRISTMAS, which has its next airing Thursday, November 12 at 8 PM. Benz plays Meredith Rossman, a business […]Read On »

Schulz Director: Steve Martino Distributor: 20th Century Fox/Blue Sky Release Date: November 6, 2015 THE PEANUTS MOVIE is a whole lot like a PEANUTS TV special.

Norris Writers: M.A. Fortin and Joshua John Miller Director: Todd Strauss-Schulson Distributor: Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Release Date (Blu-ray & DVD): November 3, 2015 “Delightful” isn’t generally the very first word that comes to mind when describing most slasher horror films. For that matter, “genuinely funny” isn’t necessarily a phrase that applies to some horror comedies. However, THE FINAL GIRLS really is all that. Written by M.A. Fortin and Joshua John Miller and directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson, THE FINAL GIRLS takes […]Read On »

Stars: Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Tamar Braxton, Andy Grammer, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 2nd, 2015 It was a whole lotta gyrating in two hours tonight on DANCING WITH THE STARS. First, it was Icon night where the duos danced tributary dances to their idols. Then, whomever scored the highest of those dances won three points and immunity from not only elimination but from a dance off in the show’s second hour. Nick Carter & Sharna Burgess slammed the competition getting the only perfect score of the night, essentially giving them a […]Read On »

The original, made on a shoestring budget in 1979 and released in 1981, was sort […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Beau Casper Smart, Mark Ryan, Kate Miner, Shashawnee Hall, Gregory Fawcett, John Brickner Writers: Brandi Ellis, Tye Lombardi, Brett R. Miller Director: Bradford May Distributor: Skinfly Entertainment Release Date (theatrical): October 30, 2015 Barring the cell phones and the fact that mixed martial arts wasn’t big in the West yet, STREET could easily be mistaken for one of those ‘70s indie action flicks that turn up on El Rey Network. You know the kind – good-hearted, hard-working kid with a talent for fighting is caught between a hardscrabble but upright lifestyle and something that is more dangerous […]Read On »
