Blade: Trinity is the third film in the series, and if things go well this time around it certainly won’t be the last. That’s not to say the film is good, as it is really a pale shadow to the much superior first two films. As the film opens, the… Continue reading
For the second time in the past month I have had my mind and soul reminded as to why I love Independent film so much. It is a true privilege as a reviewer to get to view films that you otherwise would not see. Santa Smokes is one of those… Continue reading
Seed of Chucky is an undeniably bad film. But it is also the kind of film that I have a hard time completely lowering the boom on. In my view, there are two kinds of bad films: Those that know they are bad and those who take themselves entirely too… Continue reading
