One of the things I did at the beginning of this autumnal adventure was try and map out what the different streaming platforms had to offer. I know a few times, especially towards the beginning, I scrolled somewhat haplessly trying to find something that suited my fancy. Not every service had a great interface that can capitalize on their entire catalog in an easy to manage fashion. Prime Video sort …
My first exposure to this movie was just a couple weeks ago when I actually stumbled on a clip from this movie that turned out to be a bit of a spoiler. Over the years I’ve really kind of redefined whether or not spoilers completely take me out of a movie or not. This is one experience where I can categorically say that this did not hinder me one iota …
It was inevitable that I would find my way back to the dregs. This is one of those movies that’s made to be good but also made to be bad. At least that’s how I’m interpreting it. I’ve heard mention of this series a number of times in the avenues of the internet that I frequent. That’s what put it on my list of potential movies to watch as is. …
Now before anybody does the math here and realizes this was on the weekend I still had my boys, this was not one that I watched with them. We did still “camp out” but I did this one on more of a closed circuit. Lights were out and kids were asleep but I wasn’t going to entertain it on the big TV. I remember sneaking to watch “Misery” as a …
Well, had to get a little creative again with my boys in for the weekend. On Friday and Saturday nights the boys like to stay up and we have this affectionate term for crashing in the living room as “camping out”. Basically my youngest is going to probably fall asleep by 10:30 if we are watching a movie and he just lays down on the couch and falls asleep. He …
How fortuitous to have Friday the 13th in the middle of a Spooktacular! After a little break (even Cinemasters need a little recovery time here and there) the Rental King and that fella from the North are back at it with a franchise deep cut this time. Adam’s pick is Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter. As luck would have it, the boys were able to record this …
Coming off of day 18 I really wanted to ensure I didn’t just plummet off the high of such a great movie like Jacob’s Ladder back into something dismal like the swill I’d been consuming for the days leading up to that. So tonight I figured playing it somewhat safe with a John Carpenter classic would be the way to go. I should be up front because there are two …
I don’t know if I decided on this one because the last couple nights have just been awful films or if it was just time to throw this one in the rotation but I’m very glad this was tonight’s film. This one is similar to The Prophecy as it’s been on that “To Watch” list for years and years now. The thing about it is it’s definitely one of those …
I think it probably stands to reason from the title of this movie that it’s not a good one. I can personally vouch for this. It’s a genuinely stupid and horrible movie. The problem I’m finding myself dealing with at the moment is how exactly to account for this. I don’t believe this movie necessarily intended to be a good movie and just missed the mark. It is listed as …
This one I think is going to be short and sweet. Or at least that’s how I’m approaching this one because I just don’t feel like I have a whole lot to say on the matter. I could get on a roll. I could tap into some sort of hidden reserve I have for this particular film but I’m not going to hold my breath as I just don’t think …
