George A. Romero's Lost Film 'The Amusement Park' Coming To Blu-ray

George A. Romero’s Lost Film ‘The Amusement Park’ Coming To Blu-ray

Recently, a lost film, George A. Romero‘s The Amusement Park, was discovered and restored 46 years after its completion. Now, The Amusement Park is coming to Blu-ray and DVD. In the “Certified Fresh” film, Lincoln Maazel stars as an elderly man who finds himself disoriented and increasingly isolated as the pains, tragedies, and humiliations of aging in America are manifested through roller coasters and chaotic crowds. Commissioned by the Lutheran Society, the film is perhaps Romero’s wildest and most imaginative movie – an allegory about the nightmarish realities of growing older, and an alluring snapshot of the filmmaker’s early artistic capacity and style. The “lost” film was restored in 4K by IndieCollect in New York City. Blu-ray and DVD Bonus Features Include: Audio Commentary with Michael Gornick Re-Opening The “Park” with Suzanne Desrocher-Romero Bill & Bonnie’s Excellent Adventure with Bonnie Hinzman For Your Amusement with Artist Ryan Carr Panel Interview with Suzanne Desrocher-Romero, Sandra Schulberg, Greg Nicotero, and Daniel Kraus

'Next Exit' Takes Viewers On A Road Trip This October (Trailer)

Movie Reviews: “Next Exit” and “Bubba Ho-Tep” (North Bend Film Festival)

Next Exit Writer/director Mali Elfman’s Next Exit is a science-fiction drama with supernatural elements that raises big questions, such as the ever-discussed “Is there life after death and if we discovered there was, how would we handle it?” but eschews attempting to answer such mysteries by instead focusing on the strained relationship between two strangers sharing a car together to willingly end their lives as part of a scientific experiment after it is confirmed that there is, indeed, an afterlife. Rose (Katie Parker of The Haunting of Hill House and Absentia) is haunted by what she has done wrong in the past as well as by a ghost, and she is bitter, angry, and ready to die. Teddy (Rahul Kohli of The Haunting of Bly Manor and iZombie) has issues from being abandoned by his father as a child and sees this opportunity as his chance to finally do something big. The pair are at odds from the beginning but

Movie Review: Answer The Call And Watch The Must See Horror 'The Black Phone'

Movie Review: Answer The Call And Watch The Must See Horror ‘The Black Phone’

Like many of you, I’ve been eagerly awaiting to see director Scott Derrickson’s new installment in terror, The Black Phone, which is now out On Demand, VOD, and streaming on Peacock. The Black Phone centers on “Finney Shaw, a shy but clever, bullied, 13-year-old boy abducted by a sadistic killer and trapped in a soundproof basement where screaming is of little use. When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer’s previous victims. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn’t happen to Finney. Young actor Mason Thames, who stars as Finney, gives performs far beyond his years. He’s incredible at emoting his character’s fear, sadness, and desperation as he faces “The Grabber” and the reality of his situation. He starts as a meek, somewhat pathetic character who evolves into a man of the action thanks to the guidance of the spirits

The movie stars Jamie Foxx as, Bud, a vampire hunter who works under the guise of a pool guy.
