Stephen King’s The Mist (2007) – ReWatch

As a Stephen King fan I’ve always enjoyed Frank Darabont adapting his stories. Their relationship goes way back, all in all Darabont was one of the first Dollar Babies.and he directed both The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile so he knows a thing or two about adapting King. He had the rights for The […]

Guillermo del Toro Gives Blessing to Hellboy Reboot

I felt very sad when Guillermo del Toro said that Hellboy III would never happen. He’s no stranger to projects falling apart but I had hoped this one would happen. So when Mike Mignola announced a Hellboy reboot, without Guillermo del Toro and Ron Perlman I was slightly sad.I remain cautiously optimistic because of Neil […]

American Gods S01E07 “A Prayer for Mad Sweeney” Review

Last week’s episode of American Gods felt like one of those moments where you leave your house, and when you’re halfway through where you’re going you realise you’ve forgotten your wallet. So you have to go back for it. I’m not sure if I wrote that, but if I didn’t I thought something like that. […]

Baby Driver Gets Soundtrack Featurette

I’m really looking forward to upcoming release, Baby Driver, but I’ve wanted a new Edgar Wright film for years. The wait after Scott Pilgrim vs The World and the whole Ant-Man fiasco has just been too much. The film tells the story of a young getaway driver coerced into working for a crime boss. He soon […]

American Gods S01E06 “A Murder of Gods” Review

So far this season American Gods hasn’t been shy when it comes to sociopolitical commentary. But this week they dialed it up to 12 (it’s one more than 11!) and the result is eerie. “You already know my name” When a couple of episodes ago Mr. Wednesday mentioned Mexican Jesus I wondered if this would […]

New Trailer for TV Adaptation of Stephen King’s The Mist

Only a couple of weeks left for The Mist to premiere in the US, so Spike has released a new trailer giving us a look on the show. It looks pretty intense. This show is an adaptation/reimagination of Stephen King‘s novella. In it, a town in New England (as usual with King) is enveloped by […]

Sin City Set To Become TV Series!

After Sin City: A Dame To Kill For bombed, all plans for a potential Sin City sequel stopped dead in its tracks. Sin City is far from dead now, though, as a TV adaptation is in the works! Rather than adapting the remaining yarns (and there are plenty of those left), it seems like the plan […]

American Gods S01E05 “Lemon Scented You” Review

Another week, another episode of American Gods. This time we’re going further into slightly uncharted territory, and that’s always a good thing. This week’s episode wasn’t written by Fuller and Green though. It was written by executive producer David Graziano, not that I noticed the change because it was a solid episode. And the director? […]

Adam Wingard Will Direct Godzilla vs Kong

Legendary’s Monsterverse began when they released Godzilla in 2014. This year it got a follow-up with Kong: Skull Island and another sequel to that Godzilla film is on the works. When Legendary announced this Monsterverse, it was obvious it could only lead to one thing. Godzilla vs Kong. And that’s going to happen, although we’ll […]

King Arthur Legend of the Sword Review – Hail To The King, Baby

I’ve always felt fascinated by the figure of King Arthur. Mostly from cartoons like Prince Valiant or King Arthur and the Knights of Justice when I was a kid. Or The Dark Tower, because it features its own version of Arthur. Monty Python and the Holy Grail definitely counts for this as well. So when […]
