After 16 years of fits and starts, a $50M reboot of 1994 goth thriller The Crow finally flew into theaters and dropped out of the sky with a disastrous $4.6M opening.

You know from watching great movies during Women’s History Month that the female half of the human race has made great contributions. If you can believe it, there was a time when women weren’t allowed to vote until female protesters called the suffragettes made it happen. Here are five must-watch movies to learn about the

When it comes to the best horror movies we’ve ever seen, 1996’s Scream has gone down in history as one of the most clever versions of a slasher. Coming off the wild success of the original movie, director Wes Craven and the main cast reunited for Scream 2 in 1997. However, when David Arquette looks

In the early days of the It Ends With Us press tour, before all the viral rumors about BTS drama started, we talked a lot about Blake Lively‘s fashion. Apparently, at one of the first events she attended for the film, the jeans she was wearing cost $19,000. Wait, I’m sorry, those pants she wore

Anthony Ramos, Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones make up the cast of Twisters, whose characters face the challenge of reducing the intensity of tornadoes.

Two very different indies circling a cantor and slasher debut in moderate to wide release along with a handful of limited openings from Close Your Eyes to Paradise Is Burning on this late summer weekend with the fall festival season about to kick off.

Whiplash is one of my favorite movies of all time. I instantly loved it after the first viewing. However, it’s a very intense and anxiety-inducing film, so I don’t watch it often. In fact, it was a film I loved that I thought I could only watch once. The first experience was traumatic enough. However,

As we look ahead to this weekend in new 2024 movies, we may have a dud on our hands with The Crow remake.

When Transformers One‘s release date arrives next month, it is going to be a pretty significant departure from the ones we’ve had recently in a few big ways.

Earlier today, the first trailer for Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis was released online, giving the public a taste of the director’s first feature in over a decade following its polarizing premiere at the Cannes Festival in May.

Tim Curry was considered an on-screen legend who knew how to make your eyes pop, with Curry’s best performances including IT, Legend, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, to name a few.
