Today is Phil Collins 72nd Birthday, bless his heart. Among his hits in the 1980s (both with Genesis and on his own) was “Man on the Corner”. I wasn’t familiar with this song until I watched Netflix’s Glow some years back. It’s a slow piece,…

Avatar – The Way of Water (dir. by James Cameron)
James Cameron is still out there, trying to push the envelope. My showing of Avatar: The Way of Water was not only 3D, but in HFR (High Frame Rate), which threw me for a loop. The only other movie I’ve ever watched on a large…
Possession (dir. by Andrzej Żuławski)
After finally watching Warner Herzog’s Nosferatu some years ago, I got into an Isabelle Adjani kick. I found out about Andrzej Zulawski’s Possession via Twitter, and considered picking it up. However, the only copy available at the time on Amazon was the Mondo Vision Special…

Where Will Went Wrong…
I didn’t watch the Oscars last night, as being in my apartment, I’m not set up with Cable. The bulk of what I watch is usually through streaming networks. I followed along through Twitter, particularly with a little help from Through the Shattered Lens. Overall,…
Happy New Year (And a State of the Day Address)!
I get the whole “New Year, New Me” approach. A New Year marks a reset, and it’s good to get started with a new set of goals to complete. For everyone doing this, I wish them the best. I hope that 2022 finds you making…
Beware! The Blob (dir. by Larry Hagman)
Everyone has one movie or two that hit them so hard it caused them to develop habits. It could be shaking your shoes to confirm no spiders are in them, counting the seconds after a lightning strike for the thunder, or checking the back seat…

Joaquin Phoenix is having a moment in the Beau is Afraid Trailer.
I can’t even begin to explain what this is about from the Trailer. Leave it to A24 and Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar) to come up something so weird. Beau is Afraid stars Joaquin Phoenix (Joker), Nathan Lane & Amy Ryan (both from Only Murders in…

It’s time to party with Greta Gerwig’s Barbie Teaser!
Anyone who’s ever had a sister has encountered Barbie (and all of her costumed variants) at some point in their lives. Just as my sister played along with my Star Wars/ Transformers / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles adventures, I played along with her and the…
