People Struggle To Stay Civil In The Season 9 Trailer For “The Walking Dead”

With only months left to go, the season 9 trailer for “The Walking Dead” has arrived, revealing both harmony and inner turmoil amongst groups. This season Rick and Maggie and hers will find themselves at odds as do some of the groups that have come together. Rick’s choice to save Negan has put a real strain on the relationship between him and Maggie and the Hilltop and Alexandria. This season we will also see multiple new locations, including a forest location and the city which was revealed in the new poster. It’s time we got to see something new. We already know that we will be saying goodbye to at least two main characters, including Andrew Lincoln who confirmed today at SDCC that he is indeed leaving the show. The big question is can “TWD” keep their fans interested this season? Can it withstand saying goodbye to multiple main characters? That won’t be the only people we will say goodbye

Fantasia 2018 Movie Review: The Man Who Killed Hitler And Then The BigFoot

On July 19th Robert D. Krzykowski‘s The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the BigFoot premiered at the acclaimed 2018 Fantasia International Film Festival. I had the pleasure of seeing this intense film that is filled with suspense, emotion, and action. The film opens with Billy Squire’s “Lonely is the Night” playing on an old jukebox. As the camera pans around we see a man sitting on a bar stool alone with only his drink to keep him company. That man is none other than Mr. Sam Elliot as our silver-haired central character, Calvin Barr. As soon as Calvin sets down his glass we are sent into a flashback, which happens frequently in this film. We see a young, dark-haired man in a Nazi uniform making his way through a manor under Nazi control. We see the young Calvin enter an office where Hitler stands, warming himself by a fire. Suddenly Calvin snaps back to the present where the bartender

Movie Review: Occupation (2018)

Occupation begins with Reagan’s famous speech about the world’s differences being set aside and all mankind uniting if faced with an alien threat (also a large part of the plot of ’80’s comic book masterpiece Watchmen)…which is put to the test as a disparate band of residents of a small Australian town go about their daily lives until they are faced with just that…an invasion from beyond the stars that begins as they all enjoy a carnival where a football match…game…I don’t know, maybe it even isn’t football…I know jack shit-all about sports, and I’m sure the participants ability to kick a ball in no way foreshadows anything to come as the story plays out. Any way, a right unruly lot of armor clad star-borne bastards begin shooting up the carnival with their “pew-pew” lasers six ways to Sunday (in a spectacular action set piece). As the days (and months) progress our normal folk must rise up and become heroes
