★★★ Classic rom-com and old Hollywood vibes abound in silly, adorable At Midnight from co-writer/director Jonah Feingold. As he did before with Dating & New York, Feingold easily pays homage to the romantic comedies of yesteryear while putting his own delicious stamp on the genre. If he has more in store, I would love to … Continue reading Film Review: At Midnight
TV Review: Wolf Pack
In a surprising turn of events that must be confusing to a number of people, Teen Wolf creator/showrunner Jeff Davis has set his sights on another werewolf show set in a brand-new universe! Aptly titled Wolf Pack, this Paramount+ series carries the star power of Buffy icon Sarah Michelle Gellar, and a cast of young … Continue reading TV Review: Wolf Pack
Film Review: Teen Wolf: The Movie
★★★★ Back in 2011, MTV’s Teen Wolf came roaring into a very different kind of television landscape ready for a major shakeup. Heavily inspired by the format and style of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Jeff Davis’s Teen Wolf become one of my favorite shows during the course of an impressive 100-episode run. Nearly six years … Continue reading Film Review: Teen Wolf: The Movie
TV Review: George & Tammy
For the second year in a row, Jessica Chastain portrays an iconic Tammy. This time around, Chastain (The Help, It Chapter Two) fills the shoes of legendary country artist Tammy Wynette, one half of a duo with successful solo musician, George Jones (Michael Shannon, Bug, Boardwalk Empire). While the two of them absolutely have a … Continue reading TV Review: George & Tammy
Film Review: Orphan: First Kill
★★★★ 2009’s Orphan to this day remains one of the most underrated horror films of the 2000s, and a personal favorite. Brilliantly, this gem masquerades as an evil-kid movie, but is in fact far more sinister and disturbing than one would initially suspect. Spoiler alert for a film that’s over a decade old incoming… In … Continue reading Film Review: Orphan: First Kill
Film Review: Honor Society
★★★★ Honor Society is the ultimate in feel-great entertainment, channeling positivity and hopefulness amidst a raunchy R-rated dark comedy exterior. Narrated by lead character Honor (Angourie Rice, Senior Year, The Nice Guys), I found myself instantly drawn into this high school haven. Reliant on situational humor and heart-filled hijinks, Honor Society is far from one's … Continue reading Film Review: Honor Society
Film Review: Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe
★★★★ Since their inception in 1993 lording over the MTV channel and hilariously narrating music videos, Beavis and Butt-Head have become enduring pop culture icons whose every return are cause for celebration. This newest revival comes in the form of a follow-up sequel to 1996’s Beavis and Butt-Head Do America, this time entitled Beavis and … Continue reading Film Review: Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe
Film Review: Three Months
★★★★ Set in 2011 Hollywood, Florida, Three Months is MTV’s answer to the coming-of-age gay rom-com. Out gay actor Troye Sivan headlines the film, in addition to penning two new songs for the feature. This marks Sivan’s return to the acting sphere after leaving a mark in 2018’s powerful conversion-camp drama, Boy Erased. Joining Sivan … Continue reading Film Review: Three Months
Film Review: Rumble
★★★ 2021 has been an exceptionally good year for animation. Come the Academy Award Nominations for best animated film, I greatly look forward to seeing what is competing for the top prize. Late-in-the-year animated entry Rumble is one that is sure to be missing from the coveted nominees list. A film’s legacy is of course … Continue reading Film Review: Rumble
Film Review: Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin
★ After an extended hiatus, the Paranormal Activity series has finally returned in the form of a Paramount Plus original film. Scripted by series mainstay Christopher Landon (Paranormal Activity 2, 3, 4, and The Marked Ones), the action shifts away from Toby, Micah, camera setups, and anxiety-inducing nights of pure fear. Instead, we follow Margot … Continue reading Film Review: Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin
