Blu-ray Review: ‘Cabin Fever (2016)’!
Jonathan A., here…
The Film
Director Travis Z’s remake of Eli Roth’s cult classic horror flick “Cabin Fever” is a movie that I wanted to like, but could find no redeeming qualities in. This movie bills itself as a gory, horror-comedy, and fails to provide either scares or laughs. The acting is wooden, the characters are idiotic and un-relatable and even the gore fails to deliver. Sigh… I do love me some over-the-top gore, but sadly, the gross-factor was completely lackluster in this film and did nothing to redeem the rest of the movie.

Lake of Death is a Norwegian horror movie that is new to the streaming service Shudder. It is a short 94-minute movie that repurposes countless horror movie tropes and setups but fails to execute them in a truly meaningful way.

Film Review: ‘Death Wish’ (2018)!
Filmmaker Eli Roth is passionate about the horror and thriller genre since he was young. His big debut film was Cabin Fever, and then went on to the successful hyper-violent ‘Hostile’ film series. More recently, he made ‘Green Inferno‘, which was similar to ‘Cannibal Holocaust‘. Needless to say, Roth isn’t subtle in his filmmaking, as he’s shown close up gore and torture on screen with an over-the-top style. When it was announced that Roth was sitting in the director’s chair for a remake of 1974’s classic film ‘Death Wish‘, that replaces Charles Bronson with Bruce Willis, I was excitedly intrigued to see his take on this iconic film. With writer Joe Carnahan (The Grey, Narc, Smokin’ Aces) penning the script, this updated version of ‘Death Wish‘ is quite toned down for Eli Roth’s resume, which isn’t a bad thing.
Make a Wish! Make it a ‘Death Wish’! New Trailer Here!
Eli Roth (The Bear Jew and director of ‘Cabin Fever‘) has remade the 1974 violent revenge film ‘Death Wish‘. Instead of Charles Bronson, we now have Bruce Willis. This film was originally slated to release in theaters over the Thanksgiving holiday of last year, but the studio decided to push it now to March 2, 2018. The guy behind ‘Narc‘, ‘Smoking Aces‘, and ‘The Grey‘ (Joe Carnahan) has written the screenplay too. I’m sure this movie will be fun with some hardcore carnage and one-liners, or at least – let’s hope. Below is a ton of info about the film and of course the trailer.
Sean Astin Showed He’s A Film Fan At Wizard World Comicon!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
My visit to Wizard World’s Comicon in Tulsa, OK would not be complete without getting into the Sean Astin panel. There’s just something about the Rudy Hobbit I’ve always loved. He’s one of the first movie stars to take my breath away in ‘The Goonies‘ and he’s still going strong! Love this man! I don’t understand why Wizard World did not use the Grand Ballroom like they did last year, the Assembly Hall worked out well for some talent, but Astin deserved the big room! It was bursting beyond capacity while we waited for him to take the stage and he was funny, sincere and everyone’s best friend, just like we all expected him to be. He slipped in and out of character reciting lines as Samwise, giving Doug’s legendary lisp some good use from ‘50 First Dates‘, he was amazing to see and worth the price of admission on his own.
‘Meg’ and Warner Bros. Gain Chiller Director Eli Roth!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
If the news about recent shark attacks hasn’t scared you from the beaches already, let’s let Eli Roth (‘Hostel‘, ‘Cabin Fever‘) give it a try. That’s what Warner Bros. has to be telling itself after closing a deal with the multi-talented director to helm a story titled ‘Meg‘ that’s spent some time at the top of the New York Times Bestseller list. Meg isn’t a coquettish girl, or the raving demon-bitch from ‘Supernatural‘ either, this Meg is an ancient threat to waterways as a 60 foot Megaladon tends to be.
Eli Roth Answers the Door in ‘Knock Knock’!!
Jana B. here,
Eli Roth is an actor I look at and instantly think ‘That’s the Bear Jew from ‘Inglorious Basterds!’ Imagine my surprise when I learned I know more of his work that he directed, produced or wrote. I love movie trivia and I totally missed this one! Having said that, he’s got a new project in the works.

Bryan Reviews ‘Evil Dead 2’ 25th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray!!! (A Bluray Review)
Hi Bryan Here….
Evil Dead 2. Possibly one of the greatest films ever made. It has a 98% Fresh rating on rotten tomatoes. This sequel to the Sam Raimi horror gore fest, is pretty much a re-telling of the first film with a bigger budget and an added humor in the vein of Three Stooges. This humor and horror mix nicely to bring you one of the best thrill rides of your life. And let me just say, it seems that they went back to the original negatice of the film and cleaned it all up for this release. It looks AMAZING. The best it has ever looked. This gets my highest recommendation. Get it.
