In VAMPIRES OF THE VELVET LOUNGE, directed and written by Adam Sherman, legendary bloodsucking Countess Elisabeth Bathory, played by Mena Suvari, has been around for centuries but is adapting well to modern times.

There is, however, a well-trained group of vampire hunters on Elisabeth’s trail. Chief among these is former soldier Cora, played by Dichen Lachman. Cora is heavily burdened by guilt over her past actions. Although she is frequently counseled by tech assistant/roommate Alexis (Rosa Salazar) […]Read On »

PEE-WEE AS HIMSELF: Filmmaker Matt Wolf on his two part HBO film – Interview

By ABBIE BERNSTEIN 05/24/2025

Pee-wee Herman was a character so beloved that people often confused him with his creator/portrayer, the late Paul Reubens (1952-2023). Pee-Wee is an exuberant childlike persona who can be selfish and bratty, but is unafraid of being bold and encountering the odd and the weird. Reubens first developed Pee-Wee when he was part of the Groundlings improvisational troupe in the 1970s, then centered a stage show around the character. In 1985, he wrote and starred in the feature film PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE, which gave a major launch to not only Reubens’s career, but that of the movie’s director, Tim Burton. […]Read On »

I SAW THE TV GLOW movie poster | ©2024 A24

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Justice Smith, Brigette Lundy-Paine, Ian Foreman, Helena Howard, Lindsey Jordan, Danielle Deadwyler, Fred Durst Writer: Jane Schoenbrun Director: Jane Schoenbrun Distributor: A24 Release Date: May 3, 2024 I SAW THE TV GLOW is dreamy and quasi-surreal. It opens with a shot of a dark street, where half the asphalt is covered in blue, pink and purple blacklight markings, and half is just black. The symbolism sets the stage for what is to come. Writer/director Jane Schoenbrun’s stated topics here include identity and television fandom – not “let’s go to Comic-Con and celebrate our favorite shows, plural” fandom, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Karl Rice, Eoin Duffy, Hilda Fay, David Pearse, Mary Murray, Anthony Head, Lisa Haskins Writer: Conor McMahon Director: Conor McMahon Distributor: Dark Sky Films Release Date: April 1, 2022 LET THE WRONG ONE IN is a vampire movie, though not, as its title might suggest, a direct parody of the 2008 Swedish film LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, and/or its 2010 American remake, LET ME IN. In fact, LET THE WRONG ONE IN begins Hammer Horror-style, with lightning crackling around a castle, menacing orchestral music, and the title in dripping red letters. But no, this isn’t […]Read On »

Doug Jones is finally getting recognized for his work. It’s not that he’s a newcomer – Jones has been in Hollywood since the ‘80s, and has been in a number of huge projects – but he’s spent most of his career under enormous amounts of prosthetic makeup and complicated costumes. Originally from Indiana, Jones trained both as an actor and as a mime, a background that has allowed him to move persuasively as all sorts of fantastic, otherworldly, and/or alien beings. Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has worked with Jones for decades, starting with MIMIC in 1997, which had Jones playing […]Read On »
