IT CHANGES COLORS

LIKE THE CHAMELEON

IT USES THE JUNGLE

Thrill as we blabber incoherently on the following:

  • Inception – IMAX, speak up Ken Watanabe, is it all a dream (and does it even matter?) – spoilers ahoy
  • Predators – Brodychest
  • The Social Network – the evolution of David Fincher, director of the music video for Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up”
  • The Room – meeting Tommy Wiseau
  • M. Night Shyamalan’s Neckbeard Army
  • Machete – we demand more Jeff Fahey
  • Steven Seagal vs. vampires!
  • the dearth of decent Nazi Zombie movies
  • Zack Snyder makes a crazy owl movie
  • You can’t see the eyes of the demon until him come callin

Get ‘em while they’re hot!

Review: Predators

It’s been a rough couple of years for everyone’s favorite cloaky-snarly-stabby yakbak-utilizing alien hunter. The one-two punch of the overall horrendous Alien vs. Predator movies (AvP is watchable but terrible, and AvP: Requiem is like some sort of hate crime) while his xenomorph counterparts live it up in star-studded sequel after sequel (yes, I am kidding – no rational person feels anything positive for Alien: Resurrection).

Can Robert Rodriguez and relative newcomer Nimród Antal turn all of that around? READ MORE!

Review: Splice

Vincenzo Natali's Splice [Photo - Warner Bros.]

What we pass on to the next generation is not only what we find encoded in our genes. We pass on our memories, legends and aspirations. But we cannot forget that we also pass on our failures, our fears, and the darker sides of humanity. At least, this is what I gathered from the ending of Metal Gear Solid 2, the only Metal Gear game I’ve played. I stopped paying close attention to the plot after I got in a swordfight with the President of the United States who is dressed in a biomechanical tentacle suit in front of a statue of George Washington.

Vincenzo Natali, the mind behind the brilliant and underappreciated Cube, plays with the same themes in Splice. It dabbles in ideas like nature versus nurture and the question of what we do as parents to our offspring and our families. Splice takes these ideas, tosses them into a centrifuge, and fucks the result on the cold barn floor.

Oh by the way, there will be spoilers in this review. Sexy spoilers. READ MORE!
