Rating: Not Rated Stars: Ray Wise, Adam Green, Will Barratt Writer: Adam Green Director: Adam Green Distributor: RLJ Entertainment/Image Entertainment Release Date: March 24, 2015 Between making horror movies (the HATCHET series and FROZEN, not to be confused with the animated Disney film), horror shorts and a horror-comedy TV series (HOLLISTON) writer/director/producer Adam Green knows plenty about the horror business. His new film DIGGING UP THE MARROW has an insider’s knowledge and delight in genre conventions, which he manages to simultaneously tweak and honor. DIGGING UP THE MARROW has a documentary format, with Green playing himself and his regular cinematographer, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Zsofia Psotta, Sandor Zsoter, Szabolcs Thuroczy, Lili Monori, Laszlo Galffi, Lili Horvath Writers: Kata Weber, Kornel Mundruczo, Viktoria Petranyi Director: Kornel Mundruczo Distributor: Magnolia Pictures Release Date: April 3, 2015 First let it be said that there are a whole slew of astonishing images in the Hungarian film (with English subtitles) WHITE DOG, courtesy of both director/co-screenwriter Kornel Mundruczo and animal trainers Teresa Ann Miller and Arpad Halasz. Another film with this many actual non-CGI dogs all performing together does not spring to mind. However, some of WHITE DOG’s themes have been approached before in the […]Read On »

As is widely known, Paul Walker, who plays FAST & FURIOUS series stalwart Brian O’Conner, died in […]Read On »

TV Review: SUPERNATURAL – Season 10 – “The Things They Carried”

Jensen Ackles as Dean in SUPERNATURAL "The Things They Carried" | © 2015 Liane Hentscher/The CW

Stars: Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Travis Aaron Wade, Michelle Morgan, Richard de Klerk Writer: Jenny Klein, series created by Eric Kripke Director: John Badham Network: The CW, Wednesdays @ 9 PM Original Airdate: March 18, 2015 Sooner or later, most action TV series have the old Army buddy episode. This would seem to be difficult on SUPERNATURAL, since neither Sam (Jared Padalecki) nor Dean (Jensen Ackles) has served. Furthermore, with all the flashbacks we’ve seen, it’s getting harder and harder to bring in any significant past relationships we don’t already know about. Castiel, of course, has served as part of […]Read On »

Astle & Matt Ember, based on the novel THE TRUE MEANING OF SMEKDAY by Adam Rex Director: Tim Johnson Distributor: 20th Century Fox/DreamWorks Animation Release Date: March 27, 2015 HOME succeeds in just about everything it sets out to do.

Its animation suits the narrative style with pleasing details – note our […]Read On »
