Blu-ray Review: The Last Starfighter (1984)

Our man Alex Rogan (Lance Guest) has got it tough all over; he longs to leave the small trailer park he calls home and stay true to his sweetheart, Maggie (Catherine Mary Stewart)… but the one-two punch of the local yokels on his ass 24/7, and being recruited to fight in an intergalactic battle against evil aliens is putting a serious dent in those plans, let me tell ya cats n’ creeps! How did Alex get the honor of becoming a real, live space cadet? Well, he’s really good at playing a video game that just so happens to be a test put in place by an alien conman named Centauri (legendary theater and film thespian Robert Preston) to find suckers that are willing to defend the galaxy from big-domed scenery chewing super villain Xur (a deliciously over-the-top performance from Norman Snow) and his leather-faced alien chums, who just so happen to own a meteor gun that launches those pains-in-the-asteroids

Movie Review: Halloween (2018)

The most highly anticipated horror film of the year, Halloween, is now out on digital and of course, I had to see it. The film opens with two podcasters arriving at Smith’s Grove prison mental asylum where Michael Myers (Nick Castle) has been for the past 40 years. The two arrive on the eve of Michael’s transfer to a more secure hospital. As the two enter the yard where Michael and several other patients are chained. We see that Michael has aged, he is balding and sporting a white beard. One of the podcasters, played by Jefferson Hall, reaches into his bag and pulls out Michael’s mask. While Michael doesn’t turn around the other patients go into hysterics. During Michael’s imprisonment, Laurie has never stopped training, waiting for her chance to kill him. During that time Laurie had a daughter who has become a mother herself. Unfortunately, Laurie and her family have a strained relationship with many believing she has

Plot Details Surface For Halloween (2018)

Reports are coming in tonight about the plot of this year’s highly-anticipated movie Halloween, meant to be a direct sequel to the original. In the film, “Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.” Reportedly, this will be Laurie and Michael’s final showdown. Comicbook.com is reporting that Michael is never referred to by name, only as a “masked figure who has haunted her”, while all of the other films have implied that Laurie and Michael are siblings. Co-writer Danny McBride has already stated that “We’re kind of ignoring all the films past the first one,” He continued. ““It picks up after the first one, but it’s sort of an alternate reality. It’s as if the first Halloween ended in a slightly different way.” Virginia “Ginny” Garnder (Marvel’s Runaways),

We are officially halfway to Halloween, but today everyone is talking about the new Halloween movie thanks to the first official poster being released. To top it off, Laurie Strode herself, Jamie Lee Curtis revealed during a conversation with Yahoo that horror fans are “… gonna love this movie.” I’ve seen a trailer and I’ve seen some footage, and it’s terrifying,” Curtis told the site. “They went full-tilt boogeyman. And I’ve never said that in my life, and I will say full-tilt boogeyman for the rest of the year as I go around talking about this.” Curtis also mentioned what she though title of the movie should’ve been. There was the idea of, ‘What do you call it?’ If I had had my druthers, I probably would’ve called it Halloween Retold. Because it’s being retold. It’s the original story in many, many, many ways. Just retold 40 years later with my granddaughter.” In the film, directed by David Gordon Green
