The trouble with organizing my movie collection is that I'm not sure where to place Bujalski's COMPUTER CHESS. With the documentaries? Dark comedies? Weird existential dramas? Postmodern horror? Someone help me out #films #cinema

The Hateful Eight (2015)

The Hateful Eight (2015)

There is a moment during The Hateful Eight where a character quietly explains the difference between “justice” – wherein the facts are weighed and criminals are given a fair and lawful trial – and, “frontier justice” – where criminals are often shot dead in a fit of rage. “Justice” is orderly and carried out with logic and ensuring the least amount of harm as possible, while “frontier justice” is…

TOP FILMS OF 2015!

Another day, another list.

This time, I’m counting down my favorites from the year – as per tradition – in a video format. This year I decided to focus on narrative feature films (although my favorite documentary is mentioned at the end) released through either a WIDESPREAD theatrical run or some VOD/DVD platform from Jan 1 – Dec 31, 2015.

Hope you all enjoy.

STAR WARS: The Force Awakens (2015)

STAR WARS: The Force Awakens (2015)

In many ways, the massively anticipated, Disney-approved STAR WARS reboot/sequel/franchise launch was a huge success simply because it wasn’t a complete trainwreck.

Director and longtime George Lucas fanboy JJ Abrams (Super 8, Star Trek) seemed to hold all the cards in his hand leading up to the release of Episode 7. He had somehow managed to wrangle up original cast members Harrison Ford, Mark…

Kung Fury (2015 Short Film)

In December 2013 a little home-made trailer hit the internet. It was part of a Kickstarter campaign for Kung Fury, a 80’s themed passion project of director David Sandberg that promised action, ultra-violence, dinosaurs, time travel, nazis, renegade cops, and of course, lots of synthesizer music. The internet went crazy and donated three times the amount Sandberg was asking his fans for.

Doomsdays (2015)
