by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 17th, 2018 - Blu-ray and DVD

“Some of this is legend, but at least this much is fact – when rioting citizens of France destroyed the Bastille, they discovered within its records this mysterious entry: Prisoner # 64389000 – The Man in the Iron Mask…”

House on Haunted Hill (1999) – Collector’s Edition

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 17th, 2018 - Blu-ray and DVD

As for Scream! Factory’s Blu-ray presentation, this is one “collector’s edition” that more than lives up to the designation. Featuring an excellent new transfer and a solid collection of extras, fans of the film should definitely consider adding this release to their personal library.

Bad Times at the El Royale (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 12th, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Bad Times at the El Royale is a cruel movie. There’s no denying that. Goddard takes no prisoners, and just as soon as I was starting to become curious about a character or wonder what it was they were going to try and do next suddenly they would be dispatched with a cold, almost callous indifference that left me gasping for air.

First Man (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 12th, 2018 - Movie Reviews

If I don’t love First Man entirely that doesn’t mean I don’t think Chazelle’s daring recounting of one of the great achievements in all of human history still doesn’t enthrall, this Armstrong-centered drama as close to being must-see entertainment as anything likely to be released to theatres for the remainder of the year.

Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 12th, 2018 - Movie Reviews

Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween didn’t scare up any of my interest, my ghostly indifference to Sarah, Sonny and Sam’s collective plight a most frightening outcome to say the least.

The Hate U Give (2018)

Based on the novel by Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give is one heck of a motion picture.

Feral (2017)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 9th, 2018 - Blu-ray and DVD

Thanks to Scout Taylor-Compton’s solid performance, cinematographer Christos C. Bitsakos’ suitably creepy visuals and Elia Cmiral’s strong score, Mark H. Young’s Feral is hardly a waste of time. It just doesn’t do enough original or new to be memorable, and as such ends up being just another low budget zombie infection thriller seemingly made to fill up streaming service horror queues and little of anything else.

The Seventh Sign (1988)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 9th, 2018 - Blu-ray and DVD

The Seventh Sign has had a remarkably long shelf life and it always amazes me the number of people who pop out of the woodwork and comment how much they love it. Personally, I don’t get it.

A Star Is Born (2018)

by Sara Michelle Fetters - October 5th, 2018 - Movie Reviews

The first half of this new take on A Star Is Born is incredible. The portions where Jackson and Ally meet, romantically intertwine and learn how to make music together are superb, Cooper and Gaga achieving a melodic harmony that held me spellbound.
