Project Hail Mary (2026)

fenrisfil — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 10:38:22 +0000

So far this year while there have been some trash and some bombs (Sometimes both). But we’ve also had some surprisingly good movies. Honestly it’s a run of quality that I wasn’t expecting to see again. Especially unexpected was many being in the genre of science fiction, which has suffered badly over the last decade. …

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die (2025)

fenrisfil — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 15:16:16 +0000

Today, we’re checking out Gore Verbinski’s new independent movie “Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die”. I’ve been looking forward to this ever since I watched the trailer several months back. This is a black comedy/sci-fi movie about a time travelers attempts to prevent the AI Apocalypse. Verbinski, a vocal anti-AI advocate (Which goes a little …

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 …

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 …

Alien: Earth – Episode Seven

fenrisfil — Fri, 19 Sep 2025 19:32:04 +0000

Well, I wasn’t going to do single episode reviews for this show, but here we are. This one is going to be a bit of a rant because this show just jumped the shark. To be fair, it jumped the shark in episode two but I was willing to give it another chance. Now it’s …

Alien Earth (Episodes 4-6)

fenrisfil — Thu, 11 Sep 2025 18:01:14 +0000

Well after three more episodes I think it is time to update my review. That said, the jury is still out on this one. I’ve never come across a series I find so much to both love and hate about at once. That’s not to say it’s all extreme one way or the other, there …

Alien: Earth (2025) Episodes 1-3

fenrisfil — Thu, 21 Aug 2025 13:47:35 +0000

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)

fenrisfil — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 18:00:00 +0000

“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. …

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 …
