Review of Matrix Resurrections

Disclaimer: I did not see the movie in theaters, and while I stopped going to the movies years ago, The Matrix is different. I think an argument could be made for a movie like this needing to be seen in theaters more than any other movie in existence because it really is more of an

Invasion is Very Good, But You Hate It — Why?

Going by IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes ratings, 5.9 and 46% respectively, most people seem to hate the new Apple TV+ sci-fi series, Invasion. But, for the life of me, I can’t figure out why?

The Best/Worst Horror Movie Hybrid

I’ve seen space marines fight a giant spider/scientist in Leprechaun 4. I’ve seen pianos eat giggling Japanese women in Hausu. I’ve seen people get terrorized by slugs, rabbits, exploding canaries, and vegetarian goblins. I say all this to preface the fact that, without a doubt, 1964’s Face of the Screaming Werewolf is the strangest, most

Resident Evil Village Review

Resident Evil Village is a melting pot of awesome ideas. You have the first-person view and mechanics first introduced in Resident Evil 7, a heavy influence from Resident Evil 4 (the clear favorite in the entire franchise among fans and critics alike), classic monsters like vampires, werewolves, and Frankenstein-like creations, a rag-tag team of instantly
