Review of The Town that Dreaded Sundown (2014)

Review of Blade (1998)

By Alec B (1,705) on 13 Oct 2018

It's probably always going to be the dumb fun genre piece the filmmakers were aiming for and I think that's entirely due to the pure simplicity…

Review of Mandy (2018)

By Alec B (1,705) on 13 Oct 2018

Review of Touch of Evil (1958)

By Alec B (1,705) on 06 Sep 2018
