  Zack Cregger’s Resident Evil doesn’t really feel like its game counterpart. The zombies and virus act differently, there aren’t any Resident Evil monsters in it, and the tone leans way more into comedy than horror. However, if you take it as its own zombie film, then this is an enjoyable popcorn film. Entertaining action setpieces, visceral and grotesque body horror, some genuinely funny moments, wonderfully haunting visuals and all wrapped up in a lovely 90 minutes. It is let down by a weak ending but there is a lot of fun to be had here. It just doesn’t feel very ‘Resident Evil’ if I am being honest.

  Hope has one of the most incredible first acts ever. The tension and suspense as we see our main character traverse the destruction and carnage of the town. The production design is amazing and the cinematography is terrific. Unfortunately, this movie starts to lose its charm once we do see the monster. The CGI is awful and takes you completely out of it. The second act is a drag and overly padded out. The final act has a really lame, overly convenient and a silly action sequence. It then proceeds to have the most jarring, out of left field and sequel-bait ending ever. On top of that, throughout the film, it will constantly switch from a serious monster film to a slapstick comedy. What an insane mess of a film!

  Wildwood is an absolutely phenomenal film! The stop-motion animation is incredible, the character models and designs are wonderful, the cinematography and visuals are stunning, the music score is brilliant and evocative. All of this is wrapped up in an captivating fantasy tale with genuine emotional moments and distinct characters. It’s a shame that not enough people are watching this because it is a cinematic and technical wonder! This is a must-watch!

  Clayface is an incredibly entertaining movie! The origin story for Matt Hagen is compelling and seeing his slow descent into villainy is a fun watch. The body horror is excellent and visceral while the revenge plotline is relatively satisfying. The movie does have a very weak romance, love triangle plotline that is a bit of a drag. The film does also feel a bit too long for the story being told with many moments of slow pacing. It could really have been cut down by 10-15 minutes. Still, this is a bold movie from DC Studios and a surprisingly solid entry in the oversaturated ‘Superhero’ genre. I’m excited for what DC studios does next!

  Cyberpunk Edgerunners Season 2 is a captivating series with a fun cast of characters, great music, stylistic animation and an engaging plot. There is definitely a common theme for the story and it is clearly obsession. Whether it is obsession with revenge, cyberware, purpose, science, power or simply movies. We see what this does to the characters in Night City and it leads to an highly entertaining series. However, it never ever reaches the high of season 1. There are multiple reasons for this: It juggles multiple protagonist and subplots instead of being focused on mostly one protagonist like the previous season. Every character has their own different story that is very isolated from everyone elses. All the stories are still compelling but it is overwhelming and very unfocused. This leads to the second issue where none of the protagonists ever interact with each other apart from the kid Roman. Season 1 had an enjoyable group dynamic with David, Lucy, Maine and Rebecca who all ...

  I ended up missing this series when it came out because I wasn’t very interested in a show on the character of Agatha despite enjoying her appearance in WandaVision. After finally getting around to watching it, I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable the series ended up being. Kathryn Hahn continues to be a delight as Agatha Harkness. She continues to be a wicked character that none of the others, including the audience, can fully trust. I do like that Kathryn is also given a chance to show different sides to the character as well. The rest of the supporting cast and new witches introduced are also great additions. The party have a fun and chaotic chemistry that works well on-screen. One of the best episodes is on one of the supporting Witches whose powers cause them to experience time in a non-linear fashion. That episode was great as we see it from her POV and how scary and frustrating it can be to jump all over the place in time. This show is VERY CAMP though and there are...
