I chalk this up as another reason why it’s always best to go into a movie without knowing literally anything about it. It wasn’t until a little in that I started realizing that the movie has a very similar vibe to a classic movie. Ah, yes, Rosemary’s Baby! Sure enough, Apartment 7A is the prequel…

As a watch lover, there’s something hypnotizing about watching the second hand either tick away if it’s a quartz movement or sweep away if it’s an automatic/mechanical. If it’s the former, you’d love to be able to get one where the second hand jumps and hits each marking around the dial with precision. If it’s…

Let me begin by saying that I genuinely have absolutely no clue on who Mark Edward Fischbach, aka Markiplier, is prior to watching The Edge of Sleep. I had no idea he is a mega YouTube star with over 37+ million followers. I had zero clue that this show was based on a book and…

This was a pretty decent movie. I’m always a sucker when it comes to found footage films, but I’ve learned over the years to always, and I mean always, temper my expectations. The Good Neighbor involves two teenagers conducting a human experiment, where they aim to see if they can alter or change the person’s…

I’ve always had a soft spot for movies that dealt with ritualistic summonings of either Satan himself or some other sort of sacrifice where the users usually get more than they bargained for. It’s a common theme and unfortunately, I’ve seen quite a lot of low grade independent movies that dabbled in it. With Anything…

WHAT.THE.STEAMING.PILE.OF.DOGSHIT.IS.THIS? When The Platform came out in 2019, it was exciting and a breath of fresh air where dystopian movie creativity was concerned. A vertical frigging prison. Very cool. It was mind-numbing in a way that you just knew there had to be some hidden meaning and message the directors were trying to convey. Of…

Liam Neeson is one of those actors I kinda envy. While I’m obviously not saying that being a professional actor is easy, I have to say that things do seem easier for those who literally talk and behave the same seemingly throughout every movie they’re a part of and being able to get away with…

Built to Fail: The Inside Story of Blockbuster’s Inevitable Bust by Alan Payne talks about one of the biggest corporate collapse in American history. After having read the book, I honestly don’t think the author could have come up with a better title for the book. While Enron was caught doing financial magic tricks to…

There’s a reason why The LOX is one of the most respected hip-hop trio groups of all time. They’ve been doing it for almost three decades now. It’s obvious their stock has risen tremendously after their Verzuz battle with Dipset. It’s crazy, but if you look at their album catalog spanning the decades, they’ve only…
