Blu-Ray Review: “American Gods: Season Three” Is A Must Have

“American Gods” season three is arriving today on Blu-ray and Digital, from Lionsgate and it’s a must-have! Season three, one of the best seasons so far, finds gods of old and new on the brink of war. Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle) has discovered that Mr. Wednesday (aka Odin) (Ian McShane) is in reality his father. As he copes with the discovery he sets out to find his own path with the help of ancestors, the Orishas. When he lands in the small snowy town of Lakeside, Wisconsin he discovers the town’s bloody secret and must choose between divinity and humanity. This season turns up the drama as we watch Shadow Moon go through a gambit of emotions. Shadow Moon has been through so much. Whittle does not disappoint. As with the previous seasons he puts his whole heart into the role to make a character that you can’t help but cheer for. McShane, who is a Primetime Emmy Award winner,

Movie Review: Hellboy (2019)

I’ll be honest, as I sat down to watch Neil Marshall’s Hellboy last night, all of the negative feedback I have heard over the past few months had me expecting a complete failure of a film. Luckily, that’s not what I experienced. In fact, I found it the complete opposite. While the rest of the franchise looks bright and elegant, this movie is more gritty, darker. And to be honest, I like that. We are talking about a big red demon here. In the movie we find Hellboy fighting everything from humans to witches to big boars. There’s nearly non-stop action, but that’s not the main point of the movie in my opinion. Hellboy is struggling with identity, his purpose in life. His struggle mirrors the duality of man, part good, part evil, part man, part beast, a struggle that’s been the foundation of many epic films and stories for centuries. While it’s obvious Hellboy was created for evil, to

Movie Review: Master of Dark Shadows (2019)

Beginning with a brief history of series creator/producer/director Dan Curtis from his start producing golf programs to his bull in a China shop techniques to getting more and more productions on the air to finally arriving at his desire to create a soap opera…and a Gothic thriller infused one at that…Master of Dark Shadows presents a fascinating character study of a man that brought a veritable arcane avalanche of amazing material to our beloved horror biz (Trilogy of Terror and Burnt Offerings are but a few examples besides the subject of this here diabolical doc)! Of course the subject matter soon turns to focus on Dark Shadows itself, in all of it’s outre, horror-show grandeur! We get a deep-dive into the show’s production featuring interviews those that were there (including cast and crew, as well as members of Curtis’ family) and follow along from the shows rocky start to it’s eventual explosion into the pop culture zeitgeist that occurred with

David Harbour Explains How Hellboy Is Different From The Original

When the new Hellboy movie was first announced I was a bit disappointed to hear that Ron Perlman would not be reprising his role as Hellboy. But when it was revealed that “Stranger Things” star David Harbour had been cast as the star, my curiosity was peaked. This time Guillermo del Toro is not involved. Neil Marshall is directing Hellboy, which has scored a hard “R” rating for violence. You may be wondering what makes Harbour’s Hellboy different from the original. During a recent interview with Empire, Harbour explained how his version of the character is different. We’ve also got a new poster (below). [Perlman] does something quite extraordinary in those [Hellboy] films [directed by del Toro] that is very specific to him, and I did not want to imitate that in any way. In our movie Hellboy’s younger. He’s rougher. He’s much more of a teenager. He’s really struggling with the idea of whether or not he’s a good
