It hasn’t been too long since Dracula signed off (last year alone featured two reinterpretations of the cringe worthy comedic failure Renfield and the utterly new approach of The Last Voyage of the Demeter), but now he is back once again as the star of Robert Eggers’ long overdue remake of Nosferatu. The takeaway from […]
“God delivered me for the sake of letting you take birth.” So the Holocaust survivor, Liliane Halfin told her daughter, Diane Simone Michelle. Lily weighed only 49 pounds when the Allied forces liberated her from Auschwitz. Eleven months later, she gave birth to a baby girl who would later transform the world of fashion and
For the work of art entitled “From Ground Zero” plenty of praise shall fail to do justice. The Art is actually an anthology by over 22 Palestinian individuals who have been living under the brutal Israeli Occupation in Gaza. It spans a variety of genres such as short films, scripted dramas and hybrid forms that
Fantastic Fest 2024 has ensured I will never view Terrifier 3 the same way after experiencing its world premiere. He hilariously ramped up the chaos as we struggle to witness the orbiting twin siblings trying to move on after the scenarios that took place in the previous film only to have Art once again return
If ordinary women are largely considered to be under some form of expectation to at least appear to want to smile, one can only ask how a pop star deals with the relentlessness of having to look composed and very welcoming? This performance in psychology is sufficient to break anyone, even in the absence of
One of the lead characters in the original film “Caddo Lake” by Max that features the fractured two-handed narrative of Paris Long has someone saying, “If you can’t explain yourself, there’s not a chance you’re going anywhere.” It seems to me that this film might not be as comprehensible to the audience, therefore, I may
October 11, 1975, was a race against time. In 90 minutes a new show was set to appear on the NBC television network, but the seats are empty, there have been no costume replacements rehearsed, a line of bulbs was nearly dropped over the actors, scripts were not complete, John Belushi hasn’t backed out of
I really wanted to see “Salem’s Lot.” It is not simply because I am a devoted Stephen King fan and one who places much value on the original 1975 version, which I consider one of the finest works of the master of terror, but because such works, like “Batgirl” and “Coyote vs. Acme” just get
The first time I saw “Joker,” I was participating in the Venice Film Festival five years ago, and I was aggrieved and infuriated by its content, I quite emotionally felt the need to voice this out as some reviews I later learned were a bit rushed. (I would later learn that there was no reason
Alien Romulus is rated at 81%, which means it is the third-highest-scored Alien movie ever. Viewers argue if it is better than this or Prometheus but I am leaning on Romulus since Fede Álvarez can’t be Ridley Scott for that film at least. The film Alien: Romulus ditched its fancy over-the-top effects and goes back
