Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth. But if you start seeing the ghost of a World War II Japanese kamikaze fighter pilot, you’re probably Enoch Brae, the central character of Restless. And that’s not a bad place to be. Enoch is an odd kid. If your name is Enoch [...]
“Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots” get their day on the big screen in Real Steel, a movie that transcends the one-joke premise and is instead a heartwarming, fist-pumping mechanized fairy tale of a father and son coming together amid some of the baddest technology you’ll ever wish was really available. Not to bad for a [...]
Now that director Sam Raimi (Drag Me To Hell, Spiderman) is officially off of Spiderman 4–it seems that Sony has gone with 500 Days of Summer helmer Marc Webb – there’s much speculation in the geek realm about what comes next. The die-hard Raimi nerds are no doubt clamoring for Evil Dead 4, but in recent [...]
So I know what you are saying, wait a second, wasn’t all of these casting choices just announced in the last week. Well to answer that yes they were. And now as of yesterday all news outlets are reporting that Spider-Man 4 is now canceled. So what does this mean? Who knows…here are a bunch [...]

New bits of information have been revealed through an interview with MTV, and then collected in an article linked at the source below. Robert Rodat, [...]
We recently talked about Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick’s work on a Venom spin-off of the Spiderman series. The character of Venom, alias Eddie Brock, was last seen in Spiderman 3 as played by Topher Grace. Now, it’s looking like Gary Ross — the writer of the upcoming Spiderman 4 and director of [...]
A film based on Spiderman’s mirror nemesis Venom (seen and poorly depicted in Spiderman 3) is still in the works, alongside the progress being made on Spiderman 4. Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (also responsible for The Joe Schmo Show) talked to SciFi Wire on Friday about the progress being made on Venom. [...]
Sam Raimi, director of the cult classic Evil Dead series and this year’s Drag Me to Hell, will be producing a horror film called Refuge, written by Tom De Ville from a pitch by Corin Hardy. The latter is a talented animator and commercial director who’s recently caught Raimi’s eye. According to the Hollywood Reporter, [...]
Bruce Campbell, B-movie actor extraordinaire famous for his role as Ash in the Evil Dead films, is the unsung hero in my movie-going life. Those films were what got me interested in the filmmaking craft, and the reason they were so magnetic is because of his ludicrous performance. And while it was great to see [...]
We heard a giant collective sigh coming from horror fans when Sam Raimi’s new thriller, Drag Me to Hell, landed a PG-13 rating -normally a death blow in the genre.
