Crowdfunding Cynema

Do I Or Don’t I? There are crowdfunding sites for films, projects, medical issues, video games, bankruptcy, personal hardships and well…one for making potato salad. What does Cynema have to do with crowdfunding? After all, it’s about people pursuing their dreams, correct? Maybe. Some of that is legit. I am focusing on the film projects. Thousands of folks out there have turned to The Internet to get their movie funded. Kickstarter, Indie Go Go and Go Fund Me have bloomed as filmmakers go to these sites, set financial goals and lobby for donors. I’ve followed several of these ventures on Twitter. They spend their day lobbying followers to help them make their daily financial goals to make “their dream” come true. They offer “packages” that give the title of “producer” to their films. This is ball busting work and to be sure has pissed off a legion of followers with the constant time line shake downs. Some of these filmmakers

On Episode Four Of ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’, “Brujo”…

We are already three episodes into the first season of ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ and fans are all saying the same thing, the STARZ series is “groovy”. Luckily, ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ has already been renewed for season two. On Saturday’s episode we watched as Ash (Bruce Campbell), Pablo (Ray Santiago) and Kelly (Dana DeLorenzo) arrive at “Books From Beyond”, an occult book store, looking for help to translate the Necronomicon and find a spell to send the deadites back to Hell. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as smoothly as they hoped. They could not locate the spell so they raised a demon, named Eligos, in hopes of finding out how to rid the world of the evil entities. Things are only made worse when Officer Fisher interrupts. At the same time the chaos is taking place at the book store, Ruby (Lucy Lawless) arrives at the Maxwell family farm to find the mess Ash left behind. In episode 4, ‘Brujo’,

A Whole New Thing: When a Remake Isn’t a Remake

It’s Not A Remake The Thing, 2011, is NOT a remake. It is a prequel. I just did more than the entire Universal Studios marketing department with that clarification. John Carpenter got royally screwed on his 1982 masterpiece. Some call The Thing his greatest film. Others, like me, call it one of the greatest films ever made for any genre. Carpenter’s film was buried in 1982 by a candy pilfering alien and Spielberg. Between a lackluster marketing campaign by Universal Studios and America’s pop sugar desire for heart glowing aliens, The Thing, 1982, never really had a chance. Carpenter himself saw the handwriting on the wall after exiting a plane to giant advertisements for ET: The Extraterrestrial. “We’re done,” he lamented. However home video and cable gave his film a new life, and eventually the tortoise caught up and passed the alien. Today, Carpenter’s film is regarded as timeless and as mentioned, by many, his best. The film is deserving
