Saw Sinister – Ethan Hawke wears an ugly cartigan sweater and finds ghosts inhabiting Super 8 film reels from 1960s to 2011… Now I’m imagining an evil ghost wielding a super 8 film camera, setting up the reels, recording, editing … Continue reading
Believe it or not, there’s a movie out at the theaters right now called Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter… and it’s very serious (not tongue-in-cheek) and it’s marginally good. Produced by Tim Burton, directed by Timur Bekmenatov (that’s easy for me … Continue reading
