When it comes to Stephen King new releases, it doesn’t matter what time of year it is, to King fans it feels like Christmas. A new King book release is an event in itself. At one point in his career, King released 2-4 books a year! He is much older now, he has slowed down, but not by much. It is rare for King to do a sequel to one of his books.
There are so many different types of conventions these days. If you’re a fan of something, chances are you’ll find a convention going on for that interest. Comic-Con, WonderCon, Crypticon, horror, scifi, TV, toys, Star Wars, Harry Potter – everything from video games to … I Love Lucy!
When I was growing up, there was one thing you could bet on in the month of October: Horror movies at your local movie theater. We couldn’t wait to see the next sequel of either Friday the 13th, Halloween, or Nightmare on Elm St. It was the 80′s, they were silly cheese, but they were a lot of fun. Over the past several years, the pickings for horror films in October have been getting slim. This year is no exception. There is only one horror film out this month and it’s a remake. A remake of a classic tale from Stephen King about a young girl with special powers that is known the world over by one single name: Carrie.
When it comes to certain genre’s of films, I am one tough customer. When I see a horror film, I want to be scared and not see the same old thing, Action films I want my ears to explode, and Romance films, well, if I can feel good by the end then it worked. Same goes for comedies, I don’t want to just chuckle, but to laugh my ass off. In this case of This is the end … I did!
New England-based independent production company Wicked Bird Media is proud to present M is for Mundane, their submission for the ABCs of Death 2 ‘Search for the 26th Director’ contest. Watch and vote for M is for Mundane here.
Let me first tell you, this film is not for everyone. Certain directors have a fan base that pretty much follow them anywhere. If you’ve seen director Robert Rodriguez‘s other films such as; Planet Terror, Desperado Trilogy, or the original Machete then you will be familiar with Machete kills humor, over-the-top violence, and nods to the “grindhouse” B-films of the 70′s.
18 years old, Derek (James Duval) floats through his (bi)sexuality getting engaged with his messed-up girlfriend Mel (Rachel True), involved in a lesbo relationship with Lucifer (Kathleen Robertson), and a fascinating gay, Montgomery (Nathan Bexton). Derek’s life is a continue struggle with himself, a drug-addicted problematic boy running side by side with similar bedfellows.
I have said many times that I enjoy films that are “hidden treasures” (films that came out that you might’ve missed, but discover later and end up being quite surprised). Discovering these “quieter” films that have slipped past us because of films like Iron Man 3 or Pacific Rim hogging the box office, it is a treat to discover them at home and sometimes they take us by surprise. In this case, Spring breakers took me by a huge surprise.
Get ready to raise some shell. For the first time ever in one complete collection and for the first time ever on Blu-ray come the original live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I, II and III. Cowabunga Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are destined to be huge again with the impending 2014 release of Michael Bay’s Transformers $125 million live action reboot.
I have said before that I enjoy all forms of films. It is also nice to take a break from the big budget films at the theater and see something a little more..lower budget. This would fall under the Independent films category. As a full supporter of the Stephen King program “Dollar Baby” films, I enjoy the smaller films for entertainment and quality of storytelling, However, my latest review is not a “Dollar Baby”, but it is Independent and it is Stephen King related….related in a way you won’t believe! So, here is my review of You can’t kill Stephen King
