You know the old saying never judge a book by it's cover? Yeah, well that's the case here. Upon first glance at the artwork for PERKINS 14 I though it was going to be a lousy Asian B-movie. the cover is very misleading. The second thing I has against this movie was...

Perfume: The Story of a Murderer screams for and smells of Oscar. I went into this film at Paramount Studios completely blind last night. I had seen the novel of the same name, read the jacket and thought to myself; interesting. Truly, I had no idea what kind of...

Stanley Kubrick is quoted as stating that Patrick Süskind’s novel, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, to be unfilmable. However, the mere act of German director Tom Tykwer setting the tale to celluloid doesn’t mean that Kubrick is incorrect because the American...

Vampire films these days a one dozen of the other, there are so many of them, most of them independent productions, but once in a while we'll get something from a major Hollywood studio that will give us one worth watching. While Perfect Creature is one that is a toss...

Alfred Hitchcock, Nicolas Roeg, David Lynch, Brian de Palma, Roman Polanski, or Alex Proyas could have easily been responsible for Perfect Blue, Satoshi Kon’s very learn’d debut film. In a world where the division between reality and fantasy are blurred both...

Yeah from above you can tell I was not much into this compilation of short films. They kind of reminded me of all the first time student films I watched in film class, I'll even admit that my first film was nothing great, but as much as I tried to enjoy any of the...

Mark Lewis, played by Carl Boehm, states during the film Peeping Tom that the reason he is constantly filming the goings-on around him is that he is making a documentary. In actuality, this was the metaphorical straw which broke the director’s back (Michael Powell)...

Ok so I didn't know they remade Halloween under a different title, hell they had me fooled. In all serious this film is in fact almost a cop off of Halloween, with a few exceptions. What I first found out about this film however is that it is in fact a sequel to a...

I know it’s one thing to copy another movies premise but to actually use the exact character from a huge influential film such as HALLOWEEN, is absurd. The cover of the movie itself, you would think it is just an episode of HALLOWEEN. Like they say though, you can’t...

Co-writers Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor are the guys that brought you the riotously fun CRANK and they bring a similar level of anything-goes exploitation movie vigor to this relish ably sour mainstream thriller. Its premise owes debts to earlier medical student...

I have to give the creators of PATHOLOGY some credit for coming up with a somewhat original idea for a horror/thriller that comes off as a smart horror film, but one that gets seriously trippy and sadistic as it moves on. What can be said about this film is that it...

Every once in a while it's always nice to sit down and watch a period piece film. The majority of period pieces usually consist of stories about the Roman or Greeks. However Pathfinder is one that steps beyond the boundaries of the European empire and into the new...

Mel Gibson’s blockbuster, The Passion of the Christ, became the most widely viewed horror film in the history of the genre shortly after its release as droves upon hordes upon crowds pummeled out of Church busses in hopes of meeting their guilt-ridden obligation to do...

It's very rare that I'll dislike a movie right from the beginning and then love the ending of the film, but such is the case with PASSENGERS. This film dragged so much at the beginning I fell asleep a few times only for my wife to nudge me and wake me up reminding me...
