This is definitely one of Ridley Scott's more underrated films, which, like Blade Runner, shows off his attention to detail in the gritty noir genre. Check out my CBR feature about Black Rain!

Terminator 2: Judgment Day is still a contender for the greatest action sci-fi movie ever made, and that all starts with an incredibly smart writing decision from James Cameron. Check out my CBR feature discussing! #filmsky

Anyone saying Matthew Lillard is a bad actor doesn’t know what the fuck they’re talking about. The man had one of the most iconic horror villain performances ever, perfectly encompassed an establish cartoon character in live-action, and shone amongst an all-star cast in Life of Chuck. FOH. #filmsky

I stand by that Hook is one of the best fantasy films of the 1990s, and a great blueprint for how Disney should approach live-action reboots and remakes. Check out my CBR feature discussing! #filmsky #movies

Disney's Live-Action Problem Was Quietly Solved 34 Years Ago by a Forgotten Fantasy Gem

It's still unfair that Jim Carrey never received an Oscar nomination for this film. Maybe the greatest sci-fi romance movie ever made.

Jim Carrey's 93% RT Sci-Fi Hit From the 2000s Is His Best Performance (& It's Not Even Close)

There are several performances for which Jim Carrey should have been nominated, but none more than this 2004 sci-fi masterpiece.

After watching The Americans, I knew The Beast in Me was going to be a banger, I just didn't expect Matthew Rhys to show a side I'd never seen before, especially after his role as Philip Jennings. Read my CBR feature on it!

Without a doubt, my favorite read of the year, and in my opinion, Hill's best novel. An epic, fucked-up horror fantasy that has me still thinking about it. Check out my five-star review of Joe Hill's (@joe-hill.bsky.social) King Sorrow on Horror Geek Life!

Saying we shouldn't erase history or ban books doesn't seem like it should be a controversial statement, but this is the country we live in. Here's my CBR piece on why I feel The Book of Eli should be seen as a cautionary tale, and not just an underrated sci-fi flick.
