Movie Breakdown: Welcome To The Blumhouse (Noah)

Pre-Screening Stance: It’s Halloween Month! Meaning: horror, horror, horror and more horror. So, four frightening flicks from the reigning champs of big budget horror, Blumhouse, sounds like a delight. Post-Screening Ramble: I going to chalk...

Movie Breakdown: Bloody Hell (Noah)

Pre-Screening Stance: The trailers for this film promise grim, pitch-black comedy and the sort of flashy visual editing I haven’t seen since Tony Scott’s Domino. I’m all about visual gusto and though more times than...

Movie Breakdown: Bloody Hell
