Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Blu-Ray Review

October 1, 2018 by Jeff T. Smith No Comments

A bold new ‘Jurassic’ movie with some dino hatchling extras on the side

In the world of streaming digital media, the “home video market” – or perhaps disc market –continues for those of us loyal enough to still want the physical copy gracing their shelves. That is why the addition of store exclusives has become such a sought-after perk to the buyer’s itinerary. The bigger the movie, the more promising the chance of Walmart, Target, Best Buy or F.Y.E. pushing out their own unique incentive spin on a movie or TV series. Happily, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom got to be one of them.

A ‘NUN’ exclusive contract

September 24, 2018 by Jeff T. Smith No Comments
Movie Review: THE NUN

The casual horror fan can come into this one without a ‘Conjuring’ to their name

How many times now has a horror franchise been met with not just a sequel but that inevitable spin-off and, in some cases, a prequel?  Admittedly, there is a mixed reaction as to the lasting effect of modern horror versus the horror found in the gritty 70s and slashfest 80s. For a current franchise set on the supernatural, to obtain enough fan base that they ask for more is a worthy feat.

Suspect Thy Neighbor: Summer of ’84 takes us back to childhood

September 17, 2018 by Jeff T. Smith No Comments
Summer of '84 Promo Photo

Why playing indoors might be safer than the front lawn

In a time where nostalgia seems to be in high demand, stories of friendship and camaraderie have never had a better time than now to make a comeback. Likely based on familiarity and relativity, a large demographic of moviegoers fall into the 25 – 40 age bracket, the notion of banding together with friends for an adventure fills that void not felt since their own childhood and teenage years. Netflix original series, Stranger Things, is a prime example of taking a prominent decade and bringing us back to being a pre-teen. Simplistic coming-of-age trademarks such as exploring relationships, seeking out adventure and danger, geeking out with close friends and the most of important of all childhood elements that is usually lost on adults…the power to make-believe. Tapping into that power and mixing it up with great acting, great story, and some seriously decent visual effects, make for compelling viewing. The same can be said with the 2017 release of IT: Chapter One and the upcoming Chapter Two in 2019. Take a band of kids, put them in horrific situations, and let their humanity prevail as they work together to overcome evil – or in essence, the dangerous world awaiting them in adulthood. It is no surprise that filmmakers will seek to keep this momentum going and that brings us to a film by RKSS: Summer of ‘84.

Episode #82 – Drinking Canadian whisky and watching Joe Bob Briggs’ THE LAST DRIVE-IN

July 17, 2018 by Chad Butrum No Comments
Joe Bob Briggs THE LAST DRIVE-IN on Shudder

When TNT cancelled MonsterVision staring Joe Bob Briggs in 2000, it left a bloody gaping hole in the black heart horror geeks everywhere. It was the end of an era — the death of the horror movie, midnight creature feature host.

Fast forward 18 years and Joe Bob Briggs is back, if only for one nite, on the Shudder network. On Friday, June 13, 2018, Briggs hosted a 24-hour marathon and it was glorious! It was if he had been sitting in the trailer all along, interrupting movies with factoids, jokes and his famous drive-in totals.

Of course we couldn’t miss it. It was like the good ol’ days. And on that note, we dusted off the equipment and recorded an episode the 40oz. Of Horror! Podcast while we watched. Whisky was consumed.

So grab a shot glass, and tune in to this episode of the 40oz. Of Horror! Podcast.

‘Death Note’-worthy

October 30, 2017 by Jeff T. Smith No Comments

Let’s be clear right off the bat – this new North American remake of the classic Shonen Jump manga story was never going to hold up to the brilliant artistry found in the 2006 to 2007 anime series. It was therefore important to recognize this; go in with an open mind about getting a new take on decade old material. The original live-action Death Note films stayed relatively true to their origin story (except for L: Save the World which was a prequel). After years of development hell and limbo, it took Netflix to finally come through granting the necessary green light (funding) to a project by horror genre veteran Adam Wingard (V/H/S, You’re Next).
