As someone who was raised on R.L. Stine’s original series of Goosebumps books, and the TV adaptation that followed, I must admit that I entered the theater this past weekend with an equal amount of excitement and caution. Any doubts I had were soon replaced by chuckles and wide-eyed wonder as one monster after another […]

While I’m still trying to catch up on all of the announcements coming out of this year’s SDCC, club member Benjamin Hayden was kind enough to point out that SuperMansion (formerly titled ÜberMansion) has finally found a home with Crackle, Sony’s online streaming service, as part of their Fall line-up.

While I’m still on the fence regarding the necessity of an EVIL DEAD remake, I can’t deny that this red band trailer – which was first shown to fans at NYCC – has got me salivating for more. Director Fede Alvarez has seemingly stripped the franchise of its trademark humor, replacing it with an full […]

No matter how many times we see it, no matter in what parallel universe we see him clinging from building to building, Spider-Man is one of the most predictable superheroes we will find in the whole comic book world. Many can say that Batman will always be a crazy/scary justice vigilante, but we always delight […]

Godzilla is THE King of Monsters. What else can be said about one of the most beloved nuclear nightmares ever spawned? Born out of the cultural fears of radioactive fallout in Japan after World War II and nurtured by the directorial genius of Tomoyuki Tanaka, the Godzilla franchise has fascinated adults and children of all […]
