Yet, as is the case with many historical recollections, the deliverance of information is often filtered through a lens of whiteness, and victims of color fall to the footnotes. For many non-Indigenous people, the lack of awareness about the […]
The theme of the movie Devil’s Whisper is something I am conflicted about. While I find the plot stylish with daring concepts, the acting is well done too.

It’s hard to imagine that this summer will see a better crowd-pleaser than “Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In,” a nostalgic Hong Kong action spectacular featuring the year’s most thrilling action filmmaking.

The Cult of Humpty Dumpty, which was authored by Sam Ashurst & Scott Chambers and directed by Jack E. Bell, is a sequel to the film The Curse of Humpty Dumpty. It is yet another Jagged Edge Production film, and it was fairly decent. So decent, in fact, that this sequel was something to look
More holy water is required,” the priest gasped. It is going to be fine, sort of. Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman, play two 14th-century knights, a medieval badass who are recruited by the church for a special job to interrogate a suspected witch played by Claire Foy.
