Darkman (1990)
Reportedly, director Sam Raimi wanted to film the old comic hero, The Shadow, but couldn’t get the rights, so he created a darker, more bleak version in Darkman. It’s much darker than its big-screen predecessor...
Dreamcatcher (2003)
Dreamcatcher is one long, glorious turd of a movie that will possibly go down as a fave cult film for some, while completely bewildering the rest of the audiences out there. From initial appearances feels like...

Although I found this submarine thriller to be ultimately lacking in its story, as a horror flick it’s still a cut above many in the genre in the last few years. Much of the...
Eight Legged Freaks (2002)
Sometimes it’s best to let sleeping genres lie. Eight Legged Freaks is an attempt to bring back the b-movie creature features with enhanced CGI for today’s more discriminating audiences. Ellory Elkayem writes and directs it,...
