The Bigfoot Trap (2023)
My quick rating - 4.7/10. I thought I got a unique twist on the classic Bigfoot legend, offering a blend of crime and suspense instead of...

The Flash (2023)
My quick rating - 6.5/10. Ok, that CGI baby in the microwave looked AWFUL. 220 million dollar budget and hardly beat the dancing baby gif everyone has seen? Anyways, this 2023 version brings an interesting twist to the superhero genre by exploring the consequences of time manipulation while introducing an unexpected Batman. While the film is a notable improvement over its predecessors, it still struggles with certain inconsistencies and casting choices that might leave audie

Troma's War (1988)
My quick rating - 5.5/10. I haven't watched or owned this one in years, so time for a refresher. The setup is a plane crashing on some remote island, and in out-of-character fashion, instead of some cheesy prop to show the plane's descent to doom, it is all done dark screen and via audio. But in typical Troma style, the cast of characters is a variety of weirdos that can overact with the best of them. Well, the island seems to be inhabited by mercenaries from all over the gl

Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
My quick rating - 8.0/10. When I saw the first Fast and Furious , I very much enjoyed it for what it was. Racing action. That was it, no plot was needed, although they put a cop in, blah blah. Well, the evolution of the Fast and Furious universe has changed dramatically. If you haven't seen the previous 5, it's ok, you will only miss out on some inside jokes and character traits. The change it took was going from street racing to pro street racers performing high-end heists

Dampyr (2022)
My quick rating - 5.3/10. I am always interested in seeing other countries' versions of classic horror themes, such as "vampires." This one looks at a modern Italian tale of a half-human and half-vampire called a Dampyr . Being set during the Balkan wars was an interesting touch to add to the war of humans vs. vampires. Unfortunately, this is a very inconsistent movie. Sequel setup? They might want to see how well this one is received. Harlan Draka, played by Wade Briggs ,

Influencer (2022)
My quick rating - 5.5/10. Influencer starts off with a promising setting and a familiar yet engaging storyline. The plot lacks novelty, but the film engages us with decent acting and great landscapes. It sets the base and gives a good kick-off on what is to come. The story revolves around Madison ( Emily Tennant ), an influencer, who goes on an adventurous trip to Thailand as a solo backpacker. She faces various experiences during her trip, among them meeting CW ( Cassandra

The Third Saturday In October (2022)
My quick rating - 4.0/10. This came along with number 5 from the same year (part of the joke, I guess, it is horror/comedy), so I may as well check it out. This movie spends entirely too long on these 4 characters, who are the local pot-heads and their way over-acted interactions with one another and the local townsfolk. On one hand, this flick does a decent job of being a throwback to the 70s in its look. The film stock looks grainy, and the background artifacts like posters

Fast X (2023)
My quick rating - 6.2/10. I am fairly sure I know what to expect. Fast X is a roaring comeback for the Fast and Furious franchise, proving that lightning can strike twice even after a letdown like F9: The Fast Saga . Producer Justin Lin 's return to the helm keeps new life flowing into the series, and with the addition of Jason Momoa as the formidable antagonist, the film reaches new heights of excitement and intensity. The movie picks up with Dom Toretto ( Vin Diesel ) an
