Last year, I kicked off Margetis Movie Reviews with The 50 Best 80s Horror Films, a five part article and countdown of the finest horror films from the best decade of horror. This year, I’m tackling a somewhat less golden era of horror cinema, one that gave us some major league crap but still managedContinue reading “40 Best 90s Horror Films: Part 1 (#40-#21)”

My love affair with Chucky goes back to early childhood. I used to sit around in my room flipping through channels on weekends, occasionally landing on the USA Network. USA always played a good amount of early 90s Universal movies – Major Payne, Tremors, Kindergarten Cop, Problem Child 1 & 2 and of course, Child’sContinue reading “Franchise w/ Me: CHILD’S PLAY w/ Michael Palladino”

For this Franchise with Me, I really wanted to do something completely out of my wheelhouse, something I would have never even heard of much less sit down and watch otherwise. The criteria? It had to be short and meaningless. Meaningless because after my previous Franchise with Me articles on the Rocky and Jaws series,Continue reading “Franchise with Me: THE KISSING BOOTH Trilogy w/ Ben V”

A good movie that thinks its a great one and a dumpster fire that is refreshingly self-aware. The Card Counter The Card Counter, Paul Schrader‘s latest drama is about as typically depressing and low key as you’d expect from the writer/director that brought us Taxi Driver (with Scorsese), First Reformed and The Last Temptation ofContinue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: The Card Counter and Malignant”

Coming hot off the trail of my 100 Best Films of the 90s, I’d be remiss if I didn’t offer you this tasty smorgasbord of stinky crap the 90s strained out of its butt. In a ten year time period between 1990 and 1999, Hollywood made quite possibly more garbage than any other decade. From terribleContinue reading “50 Worst Films of the 90s: Part 5 (#10-#1)”

A thinker and a stinker. Annette Somewhere, deep in the bowels of a culturally rich American city, a grad student is violently masturbating and/or crying while streaming Annette for the fourteenth time. “It must add up to nothing because it’s about what the world we live in and that adds up to…NOTHING!” exclaims D’Artagnan, havingContinue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: Annette and Candyman”

Two good ones. The Suicide Squad I’m generally pretty lukewarm on super hero movies. Marvel ones that is, DC ones I tend to avoid like the plague, especially ones with Zach Snyder‘s dumb name printed on them. I had never seen the original Suicide Squad because the trailers made it look like a candy-colored fart,Continue reading “2021 Movie Reviews: The Suicide Squad and Val”
