V – The Miniseries (1983) – Part One
Writer/director Kenneth Johnson gave us a modern retelling of the Nazi Third Reich in the event mini-series that so impacted me, and countless others, when it first debuted on 1 May, 1983. It was all I talked about in school, finishing up the sixth grade. I didn’t get to see it all when it aired,…
Injustice 2
I’m a part-time gamer, I can go for months without using my PS4 as anything but a blu-ray player or for Neflix. And then, when the mood strikes, I will play games solidly for a couple of months. That being said, I’ve never been a fan of fighting games, they seem unnecessarily brutal and mindless….
Galaxy of Terror (1981) – Bruce D. Clark
The next stop for me in the Sci-Fi Chronicles book is the works of James Cameron, and this is where he got some of his start (and where a behind the scenes worker, Bill Paxton, also did some work) as the film’s production designer. Cameron did some special effects work for this Roger Corman produced B-movie (something…

Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) – Daniel Farrands & Andrew Kasch
It’s Halloween and a time when everyone talks about scary movies. I’ve done lists, I debated on what to watch over and over again, but was just unsure of what film to cover. So instead, I thought I would take another look at this fantastic documentary. Clocking in at four hours, this epic, super-sized…

Trailer Tracks: Nightmare On Elm Street – Wes Craven
As a teenager, my brother, our friend and I, suddenly got into horror movies, and we began renting them on VHS and watching them together pretty much every week. Some were gross, many were cheesy, several were scary as hell, and all of them were good fun. While it was the 3rd film in…
V: The Original Miniseries – 30 Years And Counting
I’m a little late for this 30th anniversary post I wanted to write to partner with Tim’s piece celebrating the amazing and much-loved Kenneth Johnson series, V – but I figure it’s rather fitting, since I was a little late getting on board back when the miniseries originally aired, too. My father and brother…
