I hate the word “epic.” It’s been robbed of its meaning by teens that loiter around hot topic saying stupid stuff like, “Bro, that burrito at lunch was effin’ EPIC!!!” or “Last night was EPIC… I straight puked all over the sidewalk!!!!” Well, here are two real definitions of the word according to dictionary.com: 1) heroic; […]

Greatest Jerks of the Silver Screen: Daniel from V (1983) and V: The Final Battle (1984)
July 16th, 2012 Jennifer Smith This is a tribute to “Daniel,” one of the greatest jerks ever to grace the silver screen…the small one, that is. In 1983, V kicked sci-fi rumps everywhere, reminding us all that aliens don’t always want to share their Reeses Pieces with humanity. V was an excellent miniseries that still holds up today, about an […]

July 13th, 2012 Malone Happy Friday the 13th, Doc! After watching that zombie/stripper film, I found myself in the mood for more of the risque.

July 10th, 2012 Malone Shakespeare once wrote, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, By any other name would smell as sweet;” Well, there’s a lot in a name, or more specifically a title. Snakes on a Plane famously became a cult phenomenon before it was even released thanks to its no-nonsense (or all-nonsense) title. Don’t […]

July 9th, 2012 Jennifer Smith There have rarely been scumbags immortalized on the silver screen as slimy as Carter Burke, played by Paul Reiser. Reiser, today a beloved comedian and star of the long running sitcom “Mad About You” (1992-99) said that after Aliens, people would furiously curse at him on the street. Cast as a slimy company man, Burke […]
The Greatest Lines in B-Movie History – I COME IN PEACE
July 9th, 2012 Geoffrey Geib Dolph Lundgren is a pretty good actor, a fact hidden in a dozen straight-to-DVD releases where unconvincing models are blown up. Wait – just to be clear – my intention here was to put the image of model cities or trains exploding in your mind, but if your thoughts went to tall, skinny women with […]
