“Starring Jerry as Himself” – Review (Slamdance 2023)

“A family documents how their immigrant father Jerry, a recently divorced and retired Florida man, was recruited by the Chinese police to be an undercover agent, only to discover a darker truth.” I don’t usually look for documentaries when I’m on my off time. This is kind of silly to admit but every documentary that I watched is so devastating personally, regardless of how good … Continue reading “Starring Jerry as Himself” – Review (Slamdance 2023)

Fantasy Football – Review

I remember when I was a kid and the one thing that thrilled me was watching those original Disney Channel movies. You know, like “The Thirteenth Year”, the one about the merman or my favorite at the time “The Luck of the Irish”, the basketball-playin’ leprechaun. Movies that just were as silly as humanly possible with none of the stigmas of a real movie so to speak. You just pressed “play” and your brain became a pulsating mush, leaving behind all rational thoughts. A sugar rush. That was my mindset. Continue reading Fantasy Football – Review

Clerks III [Movie Review]

After narrowly surviving a massive heart attack, Randal enlists his old friend Dante to help him make a movie immortalizing their youthful days at the little convenience store that started it all. Kevin Smith.  The name itself can send shivers down your spine, for better or worse. If you’re reading this review, you know who the man is. He is a living legend, mixing rowdy, … Continue reading Clerks III [Movie Review]

“The Amityville Horror” (1979) – [Movie Review]

This was a massive blind spot for me as a horror fan, so I decided to give this a watch. It’s the season after all. The granddaddy of haunted house flicks, the one from which the nectar is being sucked upon even to this day. Too bad this is not a good movie. Although it does have some fun sequences and a truly unhinged performance by Rod Sterling as a heart attack on legs. But we’ll get there. Continue reading “The Amityville Horror” (1979) – [Movie Review]
