Movie Review: Holiday Hell (2019)

As is the way around these putrid parts, my arcane ass has yet another horror anthology to review… so let’s hang the monstrous mistletoe and get balls deep into Holiday Hell shall we? Waiting until the last possible moment; a woman enters a curio shop on Christmas Eve looking for a gift. Well, said shop is run by Re-Animator‘s Jeffrey Combs, who gives fuck-all how late our heroine is and proceeds to weave a quartet of terror tales involving objects in the shop… on of which she must choose to purchase before the clock strikes midnight. Lady, just leave and grab a gift card somewhere; sure it’s unoriginal and lazy, but you get to not be menaced by supernatural shenanigans, and who doesn’t like iTunes or Target?

AMERICAN GODS Renewed After A Fantastic Start

Neil Gaiman’s American Gods, based on his books by the same title, has only been on the air for two weeks and is already getting a lot of attention, so much that it has just been renewed for season 2, thank god(s). I can only describe the series as brilliant, bold, beautiful, and nothing like we have ever seen before. The story lines keep you hanging on every line of the character’s dialogue. Even the violence, and there is a lot of it, is executed as if it were art. The cinematography, at the hands of Darren Tiernan, Jo Williams, and Aaron Morton, is simply elegant.

In a world filled with gods, both old and new, we have been introduced to our central character, Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle), who is fresh out of prison and mourning the death of his wife Laura (Emily Browning). He is

Dan Aykroyd Thinks That The Ghostbusters Reboot Might Be Better Than The Original

Dan Aykroyd, who played Dr. Ray Stanz and co-wrote the original Ghostbusters, made a shocking statement over the weekend that not only will fans love the new Ghostbusters reboot, but they might actually like it more than the original two movies. “Apart from brilliant, genuine performances from the cast both female and male, it has more laughs and more scares than the first 2 films plus Bill Murray is in it.”Aykroyd stated on Facebook. “As one of millions of man-fans and Ray Stantz, I’m paying to see that and bring all my friends.” Aykroyd both stars in and serves as an executive producer for the Ghostbusters reboot, whose first trailer is ranked as the most disliked trailer in the history of YouTube. However, the second trailer seems to be fairing a bit better. Directed by Paul Feig, from the script penned by Feig and Katie Dippold, the reboot stars Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, Lesie Jones and Chris Hemsworth.A
