To my surprise, the new indie/horror/art house/Schwarzenegger flick Maggie showed up on Apple TV/iTunes streaming (it is also in limited theatrical release). Maggie is, indeed, a small indie movie with art house desires… a contemplative, slow-paced, methodical sad story about … Continue reading
Unfriended is a new horror flick shot completely from the perspective of a single computer screen during an 82 minute Skype video chat (with the additional appearance of YouTube, Facebook, ChatRoulette, Spotify, and other software and services). It’s the one … Continue reading
