Movie Review: ‘You Should Have Left’

Out of all the movies I’ve been excited about, You Should Have Left has been at the top of the list. Now that I’ve seen it I would like to share my thoughts with you. Kevin Bacon stars as Theo whose dark past haunts him, as does his nightmares. Filled with anger and jealousy, he tries to find some peace in the home he and his wife have rented for a getaway, but his life begins to unravel and something begins to manipulate his reality. As always, Bacon is fantastic. While he’s known for his roles in films like Tremors, he’s so great in serious roles and has a way of really making you feel what his character is experiencing. He reunited with director David Koepp for the film, who he worked with on the brilliant 1999 horror Stir of Echoes. They two are a great combo. Amanda Seyfried plays the role of Susanna, Theo’s much younger, beautiful, actress wife

‘Bride Of Frankenstein’ Is Still Alive

Okay, let’s face it, we are all disappointed that the attempt to revive the golden age of horror has not gone well.. Universal Studios has all but shelved the whole Dark Universe plan. However, the gem of “The Invisible Man” has shown that there is hope! David Koepp (Jurrasic Park, Stir of Echos), who had a script penned for “The Bride of Frankenstein” remake, has told Collider : “That was one thing I did during quarantine – I brought back Bride of Frankenstein into a place where I kind of always wanted it to be. Universal was very gracious to let me try again. Because they had geared up and shut down famously in the Dark Universe fiasco. Well, not fiasco, but disappointment. So I have a version now and they have a version that we all really like. I think they’re talking to directors now…It’s not the great big, $150 million extravaganza with giant movie stars. It’s not as

Watch The New NSFW Red Band Trailer For ‘Homewrecker’

Ahead of the June release of the critically acclaimed festival hit Homewrecker, a new NSFW Red Band trailer has been unleashed. Alex Essoe (Doctor Sleep) and Precious Chong (L.A Confidential) star in director Zach Gayne’s “hilarious, dark view of modern loneliness” that has “the energy of a Jane Fonda workout tape” (Rotten Tomatoes), from Uncork’d Entertainment and Dark Star Pictures. “Michelle is an interior designer and newlywed to Robert. Linda lives alone and fills her days with painting and exercise classes. Seeking a new friend, Linda coerces the reserved, deferential Michelle into visiting her home for a spontaneous interior design consultation.

‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Release Pushed Back AGAIN!

As the world awaits the release of one of the most hyped FPS games of the year Cyberpunk 2077, fans have been punched in the gut again and again as the release date changes. The release date currently was set for September 17th but today on Twitter, CD Projekt RED tweeted a message to fans announcing that the game’s release will again be delayed to November 19th. After reading the reasons for the delay, it’s understandable and a breath of fresh air as it seems many games are released incomplete or filled with bugs now which affect how reviewers and the public see the game if you’ve read any of my reviews in the past you know I can be critical of things like that. As much as it sucks having to wait, I go back to what I said before; it’s nice to see Devs giving a damn about a product for once.
