Kyle Mooney is the one person that I feel could invoke nostalgia for the turn of the millennium and the 90’s. He has this weird outlook that blends perfectly the bright and exciting 90’s with the much darker adult side. Were those colors and commercialism a trademark of America or were they just for kids? […]
The truth will always be that being a mom isn’t easy. This is a fact that any viewer can recognize as being portrayed in “Nightbitch”, although the portrayal might not strike a cord with everybody. The film, which is an adaptation of Yoder’s popular book, attempts to go in strange and dangerous territory but seems
Relationships are always complicated, and one can get emotional simply by thinking of where to begin the process of separation. However, Breakup Season, the latest film from writer/director H. Nelson Tracey, asserts that there is no good time to break up with someone. Breakup Season, which premiered at the Desertscape International Film Festival in St
Traditionally, ‘debutante’ balls are meant to present young ladies before the society as matured members. But in Australian comedian Rebel Wilson’s directorial debut, “The Deb,” there’s nothing even resembling “polite society.” Wilson’s character’s range from rude to outrightly offensive — none more so than the obnoxiously vulgar small-town beautician Wilson plays in crass John Waters

Home invasion movies have become quite common now as a number of them have been released including The Strangers: Chapter One and Abigail released this year alone. However, lack of originality also necessitates inventiveness as filmmakers are compelled to think outside the box to add uniqueness to their films. Unfortunately, this is the only thing
I Don’t Understand You: In a manner reminiscent of the supporting cast in the second season of “The White Lotus,” rich gay couple Dom and Cole have given the impression they are the world’s target. Even though, as Americans, they live in history when they can marry, adopt, and act as straight people do, they
There are a pair of films that are poles apart and are being made in Little Death. One is larger than life, rough around the edges and not all that brilliant but kind of stupidly entertaining. The other one is a depressing one, almost of a softer kind, and has a completely different message. To
Cocaine Werewolf: Lately, indie filmmakers seem to have been insatiably annoyed by the horror comedy, Cocaine Bear, released a few years ago .
