fenrisfil — Thu, 22 Jan 2026 13:47:59 +0000

Before I move into reviews of 2026 movies, I have one more movie from last year to cover. Bugonia is Yorgos Lathimos sci-fi/black comedy based on the Korean movie “Save the Green Planet!” (2003). Will Tracy provides the screenplay, Robbie Ryan cinematography and Jerskin Fendrix, the music. The movie features a small cast with Emma …

Year in Review 2025

fenrisfil — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 16:09:49 +0000

2025 was not a great year for the box office. Falling about in line with the disappointing 2024 box office. Much like previous years a handful of successes propped up a large number of flops. But movie theaters have a lot to worry about, especially with the pending purchase of Warner Brothers by Netflix. This …

The Man From Planet X (1951)

fenrisfil — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 17:45:07 +0000

Tonight we’re hitting the 50’s. The era that popularized science fiction horror. It paved the way for films like Alien, Terminator, Pitch Black, Event Horizon and even Terrorvision. In most cases these early sci-fi horrors were more firmly science fiction with horror elements where as now it’s more the other way around. This is “The …

Years before Stephen King wrote his movie about an evil car in “Christine”, there was “The Car”. This is a story about an intimidating black car that goes on a psychotic killing spree around a small American town. The movie is directed by Elliot Silverstein and written by Michael Butler, Dennis Shryack and Lane Slate. …

While I don’t normally review TV shows, I simply have too much to say about the new Disney Plus Alien franchise show from Noah Hawley, to just let it slide. So this will be a discussion and review of the firsts three episodes. I may do an update after episodes 4-6 have landed. This will …

Electric State (2025)

fenrisfil — Thu, 03 Apr 2025 19:30:44 +0000

Today I am reviewing the huge £320m budget “Electric State” movie from the Russo brothers on Netflix. It’s worth noting as these Netflix movies usually go straight to streaming or just have a limited release. That means they don’t need to spend the extra 50% of the production costs for P&A. This may explain why …

Mickey 17 (2025)

“Mickey 17” is the latest movie from writer/director Bong Joon-Ho. It is his first feature as sole writer, though the movie is an adaption of the novel “Mickey 7” by Edward Ashton. According to Ashton the director made a lot of changes to the source material and those changes are not hard to figure out. …

Megalopolis (2024)

fenrisfil — Tue, 10 Dec 2024 13:28:55 +0000

So another movie I didn’t intend to write about this year is Francis Ford Coppola’s passion project “Megalopolis”. There was so little interest in this movie that even a 1 in 3 walkout rate barely got the attention of the media and many critics skipped reviewing the film because they really couldn’t figure out what …

1950’s Horror Double Bill

fenrisfil — Wed, 30 Oct 2024 16:40:49 +0000

Time for another horror double bill. This time we’re hitting the 1950’s for some classic horror science fiction. This was a popular sub genre in the fifties and in truth swayed more to science fiction but usually meant some kind of monster was involved along the way. No exception with this duo. So for your …
