The X-Files (2018) – Plus One, and The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat
Series creator Chris Carter pens Plus One, which first aired on 17 January, 2018. Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) get pulled into a weird one, when they hear about a rash of phenomenon relating to the appearance of doppelgängers, and they all seem to relate to a pair of twins, Chuck and Judy…
Phantasm: Ravager (2016) – David Hartman
For the first time, Don Coscarelli lets someone else in the director’s chair for an entry in the Phantasm series (could you imagine a reboot, or a television series rework of this?) though he had his hand in the script as well as producing. Reggie (Reggie Bannister), Michael (A. Michael Baldwin), Jody (Bill Thornbury) and…
Phantasm IV: Oblivion (1998) – Don Coscarelli
The Tall Man (Angus Scrimm), Micheal (A. Micheal Baldwin), Reggie (Reggie Bannister) and Jody (Bill Thornbury) are back again as Don Coscarelli delivers us a fourth Phantasm outing in a universe that I like visiting and revisiting. Eschewing a lot of the humour that showed up in the previous film, the fourth film is probably…
Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994) – Don Coscarelli
The Tall Man (Angus Scrimm) returns to the screen for a third time in the second sequel to the 1977 cult phenomenon, Phantasm. The film not only gives viewers a quick recap, it runs us right up to the cliffhanger conclusion of the second film, and then welcomes A. Micheal Baldwin back to the role…
Phantasm II (1988) – Don Coscarelli
I love the Phantasm movies, all of them, every piece of the five movie collection. I remember first coming across the series when I was working at a video store, but recalled the poster for the second one showing up in a lot of DC comics I was reading in the 80s. Low budget, or…
TAD 2018: I’ll Take Your Dead (2018) – Chad Archibald
The second feature of Toronto After Dark’s opening night is the Toronto premiere of the Canadian film, I’ll Take Your Dead. The film stars Ava Preston, Aidan Devine, Jess Salgueiro, Brandon McKnight and Ari Millen. A crime thriller with supernatural overtones, the film has some gorgeous production, and features a fantastic turn by the film’s…
Issues Vol. 3
My weekly stops to West End Comics, so conveniently run at the top of my street always pays off, and this week, Kirk (who has yet to steer me wrong on a recommendation, talk about knowing your customers!) sent me home with this week’s pull list! Providence Issue 1 – Alan Moore is back! That…
Bomb Girls S02E11 – Kings and Pawns
At this point, I am so glad I am a week behind on catching up on Bomb Girls, because currently, I am not ready to watch the final episode and say goodbye to the girls until who knows when. So knowing that I currently have one more episode to get through delights me to…
Bomb Girls S02E08 – Fifth Column
What a beautiful episode. Kate’s (Charlotte Hegele) stirring voice and a single tear running down a wounded soldier’s cheek. Lorna (Meg Tilly) stopping work on the line to recognize and applaud Betty (Ali Liebert) after she was involved in an altercation with a couple of fellas who were intent on her and Theresa (Rachel…
