“A stray cat is the linking element of three tales of suspense and horror.”
“Will Chu has it all – the job, the girl – but what’s missing is his true passion in life, to become a stand-up comedian. When he gets the opportunity he’s been waiting for, the emcee slot on the road opening for his hero Billy G., the realities of life on the stage come crashing in. Between relentless hecklers, drunk comedy groupies and hard-to-impress morning radio DJs, things get off to a rough start. Even if he can take the opportunity to learn from his idols and overcome the challenges, Will still needs to decide if he should continue with the life he has, or pursue the one he has always dreamt of – the life of a comedian.”
Logan Myerz returns to the 1960s with the wild Hargreeves family to review season 2 of The Umbrella Academy that’s currently streaming on Netflix!

Jessica Rothe has stated in many interviews that singing in the 2016 film La La Land was a thrill. Before that film, the actress, who is theater trained, was only known for her acting ability, including the one that put her on the map, 2017’s Happy Death Day. In La La Land, she was one of Emma Stone’ roommates who urged her to join them in a night out on the town, through the song “Somewhere in the Crowd.” This, along with her rising popularity, was enough for producers to get behind the idea of providing her with a starring role in a musical. Enter Valley Girl, a remake of the popular 80’s film that starred a fresh faced Nic Cage. However, in this one, it is a musical that the characters sing popular renditions of famous 80’s tunes. This would be a perfect opportunity for the actress to showcase her talents. Does this one sing like a bird or plummet to the ground?

The last time we saw Mike and Marcus, we had just begun the Iraq War, smartphones were a what if, and history had not yet been made with the election of Obama. You can probably name many other important events, even some from your personal life, but it is wild to think that it has been seventeen years since Bad Boys II. The franchise, which started in 1995, and gave way to a sequel in 2003, has always been a beloved one with the public. How can you not appreciate the stylized violence, the hilarious one-liners, and the chemistry between Will Smith and Martin Lawrence? The question is, is this a legit sequel or a half-hearted opportunity to cash in on a popular property?

Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing Bruce McDonald, best known for his 2008 zombie film Pontypool, about his newest dystopian noir thriller, Dreamland. The film brings a solid cast of actors including Stephen McHattie, Henry Rollins, and Juliette Lewis. Dreamland reunites the director with the film’s star, Stephen McHattie, who plays the two lead roles, and screenwriter Tony Burgess, who co-scripted the film with Patrick Whistler. In the interview, Bruce McDonald discusses making the film, working with the cast, and shares his advice for up and coming filmmakers.
