I saw the trailer for this film over a year ago. It showed such promise as a parody of video game culture. The movie stars Ryan Reynolds as an NPC (non-playable character) that becomes self-aware. It’s one of the most original ideas I’ve seen in a while. Sadly, it turned out to be a convoluted mess with no real message. At one point, I found … Continue reading Free Guy (2021) Review
Before I found out who Jim Carrey was, Jim Varney was one of the funniest guys on TV. Every weekend I saw a movie titled under his comedic moniker, Ernest. However, there is one film that stood out from all the rest and that is Ernest Scared Stupid. Released in October 1991, it is about a foolish man and his dog Rimshot, fighting to save … Continue reading Ernest Scared Stupid (1991) Review
Do you like wrestling? I sure as hell do. However, there is one thing I love just as much, horror movies. So, when I tell you this is the perfect lovechild of the two, believe me. This movie is fuckin’ hilarious! The Manson Brothers Midnight Zombie Massacre is over-the-top (pun intended) and insanely entertaining. I couldn’t stop laughing. Certain jokes stayed with me, even after … Continue reading The Story Monster Podcast – Episode 12: Chris Margetis of The Manson Bros Midnight Zombie Massacre
Mike Carey is a badass! Don’t believe me? Listen to the story. The guy is one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Ignore his Steiner Brothers build and get to know the person. We’re all gentle giants at the end of the day, except for Batman. Stay away from him. Mike is a writer, actor, producer, and so much more. With a cup of … Continue reading The Story Monster Podcast – Episode 11, The Manson Brothers Midnight Zombie Massacre
This is a movie for Millennials not kids. Most children who are fifteen or younger probably don’t know who the hell Cruella de Vil is, let alone 101 Dalmatians. Disney must be getting desperate. However, this was a very entertaining movie. It has some super dark themes and was violent at times. As I said before, this will put kids, and even some adults to … Continue reading Cruella (2021) Review
Happy Friday witnesses! I’m back with another podcast episode. This time I brought another friend, Dr. Natalie McMahon aka Phoebe Mac. She is a philanthropist, advocate for autism, music artist, and educator. We met when I worked at City Colleges. Once I realized how awesome she was, I knew I had to have her in my corner. This lady teaches ESL (English as a second … Continue reading The Story Monster Podcast – Episode 08: Can & Will Help Foundation
This movie was one hell of a ride and not in a good way. I don’t know what the writers and James Gunn are smoking, but I need them to stop….and share. The Suicide Squad is a diet reboot of its predecessor from 2016. Oh, how I tried to forget that one. Although the story sucked, there are many laughs to be had. Harley Quinn … Continue reading The Story Monster Podcast – Episode 07, The Suicide Squad (2021) Review feat. PHILmoore
There’s been a debate for hundreds of years about which is better. Werewolves or Vampires? Well, I’m here to put all that to rest and declare that werewolves are more awesome! Period. So when I saw the trailer for Werewolves Within, I was sold. Two of my favorite genres, horror and comedy, working together to change the world. So, should you watch it? Hell yeah. … Continue reading The Story Monster Podcast – Episode 06: Werewolves Within (2021) Review
I am a stan for werewolf movies. There’s something I find fascinating about the deadly creatures. In The Wolf of Snow Hollow, a town is terrorized by a series of brutal murders every full moon. Officer Marshall (Jim Cummings) is charged with finding the culprit while battling with his belief in the supernatural. It’s a nice who-done-it mystery chalked full of humor and graphic displays … Continue reading The Wolf of Snow Hollow (2020) Review
Eric Andre and Lil Rel Howery are the funniest duo I’ve seen since Step Brothers. I could not stop laughing, my stomach hurt. Tiffany Haddish actually surprised me in this movie. She was still hilarious but also menacing. I was just as scared of her as the other characters were. Bad Trip is a buddy road trip that will have you screaming at the top … Continue reading Bad Trip (2021) Review
