5 April 2013 11:21 PM, PDT
Director: Fede Alvarez. Writers: Fede Alvarez, Diablo Cody, Sam Raimi and Rodo Sayagues. Cast: Jane Levy, Shiloh Fernandez, Lou Taylor Pucci, Jessica Lucas and Elizabeth Blackmore. Fede Alvarez's version of the Evil Dead takes place thirty-two years after the original. Sam Raimi is still here to produce this version, along with former showrunner Bruce Campbell. But, the 2013 version is much bloodier than the original. Evil Dead fans might be disappointed by the lack of campy humour from the first film, but Alvarez's interpretation is quite spine-chilling. Most horror fans will be satisfied by this new vision. The story has changed somewhat from the original. Instead of a sex romp, five friends set off for an isolated cabin for a drug intervention; Mia (Jane Levy) is the addict. The others vow to stay at the location, until Mia gets clean. Mia encounters more challenges, however. A friend, Eric (Lou Taylor Pucci »

R Prefers Warm Bodies Over Brains: A Movie Review
1 April 2013 10:09 AM, PDT
Director: Jonathan Levine. Writers: Isaac Marion and Jonathan Levine. Cast: Nicholas Hoult, Teresa Palmer, Analeigh Tipton, Rob Corddry and Dave Franco. This reviewer is getting to the party a little late on Warm Bodies. This zombie film released in theatres back in February. However, this romantic comedy modernizes the Shakespearean Romeo and Juliet storyline, but places the film in a zombie apocalypse. In this chaotic climate, the protagonist and relaxed hero is able to reanimate himself, with help from Julie (Teresa Palmer) and love. This title is sometimes overly sappy; yet, director Jonathan Levine's (All the Boys Love Mandy Lane) latest film is a light-hearted romp with R (Nicholas Hoult), an unusual and evolving zombie. The film's story begins in the aftermath of a biological hazard, or some other dire catastrophe. Here, R wanders about, going through his undead routine. He shuffles to and fro, while finding time to moan at his friend, »

*there are spoilers here. Director: Ernest R. Dickerson. Writers: Frank Darabont, Robert Kirkman and Glen Mazzara. Cast: Andrew Lincoln, Sarah Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden, Norman Reedus and Steven Yeun. "The Walking Dead" ended Seas. 3 with a few surprises, in "Welcome to the Tombs."

Instead, certain scenarios were relived with another primary character finding a zombie bite and outro' from the show. Meanwhile, the protagonist and antagonist continue to deal with unstable mental states. And, this viewer was hoping for a few more bullet firings at the prison.

1 April 2013 10:07 AM, PDT
Director: Gregory Nicotero. Writers: Frank Darabont, Robert Kirkman, and Scott M. Gimple. Cast: Andrew Lincoln, Sarah Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden and Norman Reedus. "This Sorrowful Life" is episode fifteen of "The Walking Dead" and this showing is the preamble before season three's finale, "Welcome to the Tombs." This episode began with some slow pacing, which is reminiscent of an earlier season, but it finished strongly. The main crux of the episode dealt with Michonne's (Danai Gurira) fate and her position in the group. Characters are dealing with their own moralities and sense of justice, with Merle (Michael Rooker) imposing his own hostile outcome on Michonne. Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) dictatorship is crumbling, while the final episode promises more death and destruction in the zombie apocalypse. This episode seemed to stall through its first ten minutes as Rick struggled with his conscience. A sign from Laurie (Sarah Wayne Callies) finally made his decision clear; he. »
