Back in June we reported that director M. Shawn Crahan (Slipknot) would be bringing Joe Casey and Chris Burnham’s blood-soaked graphic novel, Officer Downe, to the big screen. Unfortunately, at the time, there were no plans for distribution but it would seem that has changed as Magnolia’s Magnet Releasing imprint has scooped up the rights […]

It’s a good time to be a comic book fan. While mainstream publishers DC and Marvel continue to battle it out for box office supremacy, lesser known titles are finding their own niche channels to celluloid glory…or, in the case of Joe Casey and Chris Burnham’s Officer Downe, gory.

Terminator vs Robocop. Epic Rap Battles of History Season 4 You can thank my daughter for getting me back into Epic Rap Battles of History recently.

Some of the DVD/Blu-Ray releases this week. Robocop – I didn’t get to see this in the theater but I have plans to watch it on Blu-Ray. I think it looks like a competent reboot that doesn’t “destroy” the original. Great cast, too. Super Duper Alice Cooper (2014) – A “rock opera documentary” all about […]

Some of the DVD/Blu-Ray releases this week. Veronica Mars (2014) – The crowd sourced sequel to the popular TV show. I have not seen one episode of this TV show nor I have seen this movie. However, the wife and I do have plans to binge watch the show at some point (maybe this summer) […]

There’s a lot to be said for 80s animation and children’s entertainment. It was a time where pretty much nothing was off limits and studios spent an odd amount of resources trying to tailor adult properties to kids. Violent characters and cult films like Rambo, The Toxic Avenger and Conan the Barbarian were turned into […]
