I realize I’m repeating myself, but if Hollywood would stop remaking Korean horror films, I wouldn’t have to. “The Uninvited” is indeed a remake, this time of the Korean film “A Tale of Two Sisters”, or originally titled “Janghwa, Hongryeon” in Korea. In this American version, Anna comes home from being in a mental…
DetailsAh, once more into the monochromatic, ultra-stylized Underworld franchise. You know, the first one had that novelty factor going for it because it was new. And it had the cool factor of both vampires AND werewolves. And it borrowed from “The Matrix” with its action sequences. Well, what action there was. Its’ imperfections were…
DetailsSo this movie, “The Unborn”, looked like it could be pretty creepy, and the idea of a girl that was a twin whose brother died in the womb but was haunting her and trying to be born was an idea with some promise. Unfortunately, David S. Goyer chose to add a bunch of other stuff,…
DetailsSometimes a movie is just bad. Sometimes a movie is pretty good. And sometimes it’s both. Tom Hanniger, played by Jensen Ackles of TV’s “Supernatural”, returns to his hometown, a Pennsylvanian mining town, on the tenth anniversary of the Valentine’s night massacre that claimed the lives of 22 people. However, upon his return, he is…
DetailsWhen someone says Bruce Campbell is starring in and even directing a new film, you expect it to be a bit goofy, somewhat ridiculous, and a crap load of fun. When you actually see that movie, and all of those things are true, you come out pretty damn happy.
DetailsEver wonder what it would be like if you lived life in reverse? If we started old and then got younger as the years passed? Our minds would indeed grow as they normally would, growing wiser as the years passed, but our bodies would become more mobile, stronger, and useful with each passing year. …
DetailsWell, here we are again, folks. It’s Oscar time. It was a big year in 2008 for movies, no doubt about it. So much so, that I wonder if some of the summer blockbusters will have a chance at nominations. Let’s see who might show up in the Academy’s sights for consideration this year.…
DetailsI can honestly say that not a lot of filmmakers are making the kinds of movies they made in the ‘40s’ and 50’s anymore. I don’t think anyone would disagree. You know, those old school sweeping epics with action, romance and drama? Well, apparently director Baz Luhrman felt the same way. So he made “Australia”.…
DetailsHere at ComedyFilmNerdsdotcom.com we have established the obvious: we’re nerds. And it’s often assumed that nerds love comic books. And you know what? We’re OK with that here because with us, it happens to be true. But if there were one thing I could say about the movie “Punisher: War Zone”, it would be that…
DetailsI’ll start right off by saying I’m a fan of Clint Eastwood. I suppose I always have been. From his epic westerns at first, then even things like “Play Misty For Me” and “The Beguiled”, and of course the Dirty Harry series, too. I’d also recommend a movie called “A Perfect World”. Not many people…
