If ‘Slender Man’ Does Not End Up Being the Worst Film of 2018 I Will Donate to Charity

David Palmer1 Comment

“Slender Man” is based on the internet meme of the same name, in which a tall, skinny figure appears and haunts youth who summon him. It stars Joey King, Julia Goldani Telles, Jaz Sinclair and Annalise Basso, and is directed by Sylvain White. This film is lazy, ugly, derivative, boring, monotonous, dull, dreadful and moronic.… Continue reading If ‘Slender Man’ Does Not End Up Being the Worst Film of 2018 I Will Donate to Charity

‘Jigsaw’ is Exactly What You Think it is, For Better or Worse

David Palmer1 Comment

What’s it say about us as a human species when characters in the “Saw” films are fighting for their lives in deathtraps and we’re just all hoping and praying for them to fail? “Jigsaw” is the eight installment of the torture porn franchise, and the first since 2010’s “Saw 3D.” In the film, the Jigsaw… Continue reading ‘Jigsaw’ is Exactly What You Think it is, For Better or Worse

Sue Me Again: Something About ‘Boo 2! A Madea Halloween’ Entertained Me

David Palmer1 Comment

Always refreshing when a movie is exactly what the trailers and cast imply it’s going to be. “Boo 2! A Madea Halloween” is the sequel to last year’s “Boo! A Madea Halloween” (very clever naming going on here) and the 10th installment of Tyler Perry’s series. The film features Perry again playing several characters, including… Continue reading Sue Me Again: Something About ‘Boo 2! A Madea Halloween’ Entertained Me

‘Happy Death Day’ Worth Taking a Stab At

I’ve seen people comparing this film to “Groundhog Day” and “Edge of Tomorrow” but have we all forgotten about this past February’s “Before I Fall?” “Happy Death Day” stars Jessica Rothe as a college girl who is murdered on her birthday, only to wake up and realize she is reliving the same day on a… Continue reading ‘Happy Death Day’ Worth Taking a Stab At

‘It’ is Inconsistent, but You Should See it Anyways

David Palmer1 Comment

No matter how this thing turned out, the bar to be the best Stephen King adaptation of 2017 was set very low by “The Dark Tower” last month. “It” is based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Stephen King, and is the second reincarnation of the book after the 1990 miniseries. The… Continue reading ‘It’ is Inconsistent, but You Should See it Anyways

‘Lights Out’ High on Production, Low on Scares

David PalmerLeave a comment

There is a world of difference between potential and reality. “Lights Out” is a horror film about a family that is haunted by a creature that only appears when the lights go out (I know how stupid and simple that sounds but that’s honestly the best way to describe the plot). Teresa Palmer, Gabriel Bateman… Continue reading ‘Lights Out’ High on Production, Low on Scares
