Robert Bartleh Cummings. That’s the name of somebody who uses words like “balderdash” and has a Spanish manservant who brings him tea in the parlour, not a hardcore musician.

It seems like lately the small screen is becoming the big screen, as American cable network HBO has been pulling in the A-list movie talent for their own productions. Last year saw Julianne Moore, Woody Harrelson and Ed Harris in Ed Roach’s Sara Palin pic, Game Change, and soon it will be Michael Douglas and Matt Damon glamming it up for …
Neil Jordan knows about sucking. No, not like that (and definitely not like that, you perverts!). I mean that as the director behind one of the most well known and well loved of the modern tales of the nosferatu, Interview With A Vampire, Jordan has certainly established himself as a man who knows vampires.

Testicles to that. What I’ve got here, is a pirates film that has 0% Johnny Depp, and 200% more space, lasers, robots and massive ships. I’ve got a …
I’m enjoying the work that Steve Carrell has put out as of late. The man has finally broken out of his awkward Office shell, and has developed a style that suits him, from films such as Despicable Me through to Dinner for Schmucks and Seeking a friend for the end of the world. And in The Amazing Burth Wonderstone, he’s …
A new trailer has been released for Aliens: Colonial Marines and it really isn't very good at all
Cash once ruled Colorado commerce. From Denver’s neighborhood diners to mountain-town gift shops, physical …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
