Bill Skarsgard Among Impressive Cast Of ‘Boy Kills World’

Raimi Productions, Vertigo Entertainment, Nthibah Pictures, and Hammerstone Studios have joined forces to produce Boy Kills World, directed by Moritz Mohr (Akumi), which already has an impressive cast that includes Bill Skarsgård (Deadpool 2, It Chapter Two) in the title role of “Boy,” Samara Weaving (Ready or Not, Bill and Ted Face the Music), and martial arts master Yayan Ruhian (John Wick 3, The Raid: Redemption).

McNeely Reviews ‘Guns Akimbo’ Starring Daniel Radcliffe

Meet Miles, (Daniel Radcliffe) a game programmer who spends way too much time trolling the fans of Skizm, a life or death game that has taken the world by storm. Miles bullies the wrong person and ends up waking up with guns bolted to the palms of his hands. But it gets worse, the guy he pissed off runs Skizm and he’s sent his best player after Miles, the psycho killer Nix (Samara Weaving). And the shit hits the fan! There are so many great things about Guns Akimbo. The nearly constant action is more than enough to make your head explode. The acting is top-notch. Director Jason Lei Howden has created a hardcore action flick that will leave you cheering. When I first heard that Radcliffe was set to star in action flick I was a bit surprised. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been a fan since his Harry Potter days, but Radcliffe has never played a part like

Movie Review: Guns Akimbo (2019)

Miles (Daniel Radcliffe), is a real nerds nerd… a trolling mother fucker of a game designer, who loves nothing more than pissing off the fanatics of “Skizm”, a deathmatch club streamed live online. As one would guess, Miles luck in the ball bustin’ game only lasts so long, and he pisses off the wrong motherfucker and winds up with guns surgically added to his hands in a manner most crude, which makes him a perfect candidate to participate in Skizm whether he wants to or not. Sounds like a total shit show… but it’s going to get a ‘titch worse as our hero soon finds himself in a life and death struggle with Skizm’s best, the violence crazed maniac Nix (Samara Weaving). Akinbo ensues… and carnage. Mostly the latter. the first thing you may notice about Guns akimbo is that the film’s writer/director Jason Lei Howden (Deathgasm) has infused the comic book style proceedings with enough panache and flair to

Movie Review: Ready Or Not (2019) Is A Bloody Good Thrill Ride

There have been many times that I’ve gotten my hopes up when it comes to big-budget horror movies, only to feel let down. Well, that certainly is not the case with the Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett directed 2019 horror flick Ready or Not. It left me feeling almost giddy. Few horror films give me that feeling these days. Samara Weaving stars as Grace, a bride eager to please her in-laws on her wedding day, not knowing that her wedding night would become a fight for survival. After the wedding Grace learns from her new husband Alex (Mark O’Brien) that there’s a unique family tradition, the couple must play a game with the family. She laughs as she draws the Hide and Seek card from a dealing box, but it’s no laughing matter. That’s when she learns that if she’s found before dawn, she will be killed. And chaos ensues. And you thought your in-laws were bad. Ready or Not
