Adam Sandler is Mr. Halloween in the Netflix Comedy-Horror 'Hubie Halloween' [TRAILER]

September 10, 2020

Adam Sandler has his fair share of haters, more than most actors I would say. The majority of the hate came full force when Sandler inked his first movie deal with Netflix churning out what most consider to be the dumpster fire version of Hollywood film. But you can’t argue with the fact that even with all of the goofy thrown together movies he has put out Adam Sandler is a fantastic actor, and the recent Uncut Gems is proof of that. He actually voiced his Oscar snub in an interview saying he would put out the worst movie ever on purpose purely out of spite - but I "don’t think” he was referring to this movie.

Hubie Halloween tells the story of Hubie Dubois, a Salem man who embodies everything that we all love about Halloween. Unfortunately for Hubie, he is widely considered to be a joke by adults and children alike. But this year things are different, and the town of Salem, MA, will need Hubie to save Halloween.

Sure, it will be over-the-top and goofy to no end, but I think this will be an enjoyable shut your brain off kind of seasonal movie - plus the cast is absolutely stacked.

The all-star cast includes many of Sandlers regulars and a few others including Kevin James, Julie Bowen, Maya Rudolph, Ray Liotta, Steve Buscemi, Rob Schneider, Michael Chiklis, and Kenan Thompson. The film also features co-stars Tim Meadows, June Squibb, and Shaquille O’Neal.

Little Nicky director Steven Brill is behind the camera, with Sandler co-writing the script with Tim Herlihy.

Hubie Halloween will hit Netflix October 7th. Watch the new trailer below.

A High School Girl Swaps Bodies With A Deranged Serial Killer in Blumhouse Horror 'Freaky' [TRAILER]

September 10, 2020

On Friday the 13th, November 13th to be more specific, Blumhouse will drop its latest horror thriller, Freaky, telling the story of a teenage girl who swaps bodies with a crazed serial killer.

Seventeen-year-old Millie Kessler is just trying to survive the never-ending nightmare that is the halls of Blissfield High and the cruelty of the popular crowd. But when she becomes the newest target of The Butcher, her town’s infamous serial killer, her senior year becomes the least of her worries.

Writer/director Christopher Landon is the man behind the film, and previously delivered to us Happy Death Day, as well as a few films in the Paranormal Activity franchise. Landon has a knack for horror comedy, and it seems he may have hit the nail on the head yet again.

Freaky stars Kathryn Newton (Blockers, HBO’s Big Little Lies), Vince Vaughn, and Alan Ruck (HBO’s Succession), and is sure to satisfy fans of the Happy Death Day Films. Watch the new trailer below.

Sundance Official Selection 'Charm City Kings' Set To Hit HBO Max This October [TRAILER]

September 10, 2020

Stock has been sky high for the drama Charm City Kings, inspired by the documentary 12 O’Clock Boys, ever since it was acknowledged as an official selection at the Sundance Film Festival, a great honor for any film looking for a little hype.

Starring Jahi Di’Allo Winston and rapper/actor Meek Mill, who provides a breakout performance, Charm City Kings is a gritty coming-of-age tale. Fourteen-year old Mouse desperately wants to join The Midnight Clique, the infamous Baltimore dirt bike riders who rule the summertime streets. When he manages to catch the attention of Midnight's leader, Blax (Meek Mill), who takes him under his wing, Mouse soon finds himself torn between the straight-and-narrow and a road filled with fast money and violence.

I am intrigued by the bike/atv scene in Baltimore which is highlighted in Ryan Coogler’s Creed, and have been keeping a close eye on this film for quite some time. Once HBO acquired the rights to release on its HBO Max platform, I knew it was only a matter of time before I would finally check this out myself.

Watch the new HBO Max trailer for Charm City Kings below. It is set to hit the streaming service on October 8th.

Am I The Only Crazy Person Who Feels Nostalgic When Thinking About The 1992 B-Movie Horror 'Mikey'?!

September 9, 2020

“Remember, Jason and Freddie were kids once, too…”

More often than not I find myself thinking about movies from my childhood, and thanks to mostly poor parental supervision the majority of those movies are in the horror genre which has surely helped to mold me into the degenerate I am today. When the movie that comes to mind is the direct-to-video relic ‘Mikey’ that is so unknown people look at me like I have two heads when I bring it up, I am naturally intrigued enough to revisit this childhood memory.

Are you familiar with the Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne comedy Instant Family? Well its fantastic, and it serves as the perfect “why adopting is such a great thing movie”. Well, this is the exact opposite of that. Mikey seems like a sweet kid who is just catching a bad break as he continues to bounce around the foster care system. He doesn’t have a problem getting adopted, everyone loves Mikey. The problem is that somehow the families who take him in always end up violently murdered, and poor Mikey is forced to find yet another new home. I know what you’re thinking, man this kid has some terrible luck and can you even imagine how traumatized he must be?! Mikey gets a fresh start yet again and falls for the teenage girl next-door, but needless to say things soon take a dark turn.

Spoiler alert, Mikey is an OG psychopath - I mean you cross this kid and you won’t see the sun come up ever again, thats a cold hard fact. Just ask his adoptive sister from the films opening who refused to admit something was her idea getting him into trouble, or his adoptive mother who thought slapping him across the face was a good idea. Don’t even get me started on the poor dad who was just minding his own business at work during all of this, but he surely got his once he finally made it home. “No dad, just because the baseball bat is out doesn’t mean he was playing baseball earlier, but he will be soon enough”. Even worse, he has the foster care system, law enforcement, and his therapist fooled to the point where they think HE is the victim.

This kid is just straight murdering entire families, playing the sympathy card, and going to Chili’s for dinner right after. If Ted Bundy had a kid, this is exactly how he would have turned out. The timeline actually lines up, Bundy was executed in 1989, plenty of time for him to have this kid who eventually lands in foster care only to take over the family business a few years later.

Mikey is played by Family Ties (1986-1989) and Blank Check (1994) actor Brian Bonsall, who seems to have slipped out of the acting game after a few TV show and movie appearances in 1994. As I mentioned this is very much a throwback B-movie horror BUT I watched it a bunch of times as a kid and in my twisted mind it still holds up today. One of my favorite things about this movie is the score which is true early 90’s B-movie horror which really brings me back. Plus, it would be nice to have someone to talk to about it since as far as I can tell I am the only person who has actually seen it.

And don’t worry, Mikey did make the technological leap to DVD so feel free to add it to your collection, or if you can find the VHS, even better.

Mikey is currently streaming on Prime Video.

Watch the vintage trailer and a pretty cool montage celebrating the pint sized psychopath below.

New Girl's Lamorne Morris Stars In The Hulu Original Series 'Woke' Available to Stream This Week

September 8, 2020

New Girl is easily one of my favorite sitcoms, and I swear I have seen every episode at least 3 times. Its a show you can just throw on and enjoy on a whim which I like. One of the main characters in the show, the cat loving goofball Winston, is played by Chi-Town native Lamorne Morris.

Fun fact - before becoming an actor he actually really wanted to play basketball which is why that was written into his backstory in the show.

New Girl was the big break Morris needed, running from 2011 until 2018, and since he has had a supporting role in some big films including Barber Shop: The Next Cut, and more recently Bloodshot. Now he has landed himself a starring role in a comedy series on a premiere streaming service, and I couldn’t be happier for the guy.

Inspired by the life and art of cartoonist Keith Knight, the Hulu original series ‘Woke’ revolves around "Keef," a cartoonist living in San Francisco on the cusp of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything.

The series is set to premiere on Hulu September 9th. Watch the trailer below.

Romantic Comedy 'Love, Guaranteed' Starring Rachael Leigh Cook and Damon Wayans Jr. Is Now Streaming on Netflix

September 8, 2020

Who are you kidding, whether or not the wife needs it or you are just in the mood for something different, romantic comedies have their place in the world of movies. One of the latest exclusives from Netflix is Love, Guaranteed, starring Rachael Lee Cook, Damon Wayans Jr., and Heather Graham.

Aside from the fact that the Wayans family is just too damn big and I always get the brothers mixed up (I just try to remember Damon Wayans Jr. is Coach in New Girl, that helps), Love, Guaranteed has a solid cast lead by Cook and Wayans Jr., and touches on a subject that most people in their late 20’s early 30’s are well versed on, online dating.

Online dating services are known to be a blessing and a curse (for the last time Tinder is/was for hook-ups, not actual dating), and can provide you with your fair share of nightmare scenarios but hopefully in the end you get lucky and find someone you don’t want to kick out of the bed first thing in the morning, or even the same night. Either way, if you need to mix it up a bit and are trying to score some points with the lady this is a solid choice.

Love, Guaranteed is now streaming on Netflix. Watch the trailer below.

Netflix Horror Comedy The Babysitter Returns With a Sequel 'The Babysitter: Killer Queen' Available to Stream This Week

September 8, 2020

In 2017, Netflix dropped the over-the-top stylish horror comedy The Babysitter, which was met with open arms by critics and audiences alike. Directed by McG, the man behind We Are Marshall, Terminator Salvation, and This Means War, the film had a very solid cast lead by Bella Thorne and Robbie Amell. It told the story of Cole, played by Judah Lewis, who had a babysitter hired to keep an eye on him while his parents were away. Cole feels like something is off and decides to spy on this babysitter of his, played by Thorne, and gets much more than he bargained for.

Fast forward three years and thanks to the success of the first film, McG and the cast is back for yet another go around with The Babysitter: Killer Queen. The film picks up two years later and Cole is now living a new nightmare, high school. Unfortunately for him and his friends, his past isn’t as far behind as he previously thought. If you enjoy a well-made horror comedy with eye candy for everyone, this should fit the bill.

The Babysitter: Killer Queen is set to hit Netflix on September 10th. Watch the new trailer below.

Never Hike in the Snow picks up 3-months prior to Never Hike Alone, and is centered around the disappearance of a Crystal Lake local, who went for a hike in the woods and never returned. The local sheriff and deputy search for answers, but soon town local Tommy Jarvis, played by Thom Mathews who played Jarvis in one of my favorite entries in the franchise Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives, comes into the picture adamant that his old friend Jason is responsible.

I am a DIEHARD Friday the 13th fan and will support any project that comes through for a fan base that wants nothing more than a 13th movie.

Netflix Dropped The First Trailer For The Haunting of Hill House Follow-Up 'The Haunting of Bly Manor' And It Is TERRIFYING - Watch It Now

August 31, 2020

Summer has been fun but the Fall season is upon us, and that means apple picking, pumpkins, and of course, Halloween. This is an exciting time of year for horror fanatics like myself as we start to re-watch all of our favorite scary movies. Two years ago, series creator Mike Flanagan, the man behind Oculus and HUSH, brought pure joy to the horror community with the Netflix series The Haunting of Hill House.

I mean the show was simply amazing - it was well-acted, the production value and cinematography was on point, and most importantly it had a legit “give you chills” horror feel throughout.

Fast forward to the 2020, a year that has been one big horror movie in all of the worst ways, and Flanagan is back with a follow-up series - The Haunting of Bly Manor. It promises to stay true to what made Hill House so good and the trailer does not disappoint.

Watch the trailers below but proceed with caution, you might pee a little. The Haunting of Bly Manor is set to hit Netflix on October 9th.

The Struggle Is Real For Kevin Hart and Beanie Sigel in the 2002 Throwback Comedy Paper Soldiers

August 30, 2020

This damn pandemic has been hard on all of us, and even though for awhile there we thought the service industry was hit the hardest, we forgot about the B&E (breaking and entering) game. I mean sure you, can’t run a profitable restaurant without in-person dining etc, but try having a career based solely on robbing houses while people aren’t home during this, it ain’t happenin’!

Kevin Hart feels the pain in the 2002 comedy Paper Soldiers, playing the role of Shawn, an overeager burglar already on parole but lacking the ability to provide for his family. Hoping to make ends meet, he decides that the B&E game is where the money is, and asks an old school thief to show him the ropes. Unfortunately for Shawn, a neighborhood hothead with a hair-trigger temper takes a liking to him, ensuring that any chance of success in his new endeavor is short lived. Paper Soldiers is a funny under-the-radar comedy nobodies heard of, but it is worth checking out.

Paper Soldiers is currently available on Starz and on DVD through Best Buy, Target, or Wal-Mart for the very reasonable price of $7.99. Watch the trailer below.

Hulu Original Comedy 'The Binge' Starring Vince Vaughn Premieres This Week And It Looks Like A Blast

August 26, 2020

I have been waiting my entire life for a movie that is basically The Purge but instead of making all crime legal for 24 hours, drugs and alcohol are legal instead - actually now that I think about it only drinking one day out of the year sounds like my nightmare.

So the Hulu original movie The Binge hits the streaming service this week, and it is set in a time where all drugs and alcohol are illegal and the only day anyone can participate in the fun is on Binge day. So basically its present day prohibition without the speakeasys - sounds BRUTAL. But lucky for us the trailer actually looks really funny.

Directed by Jeremy Garelick (The Wedding Ringer), The Binge stars Vince Vaughn, Skyler Gisondo (Vacation, Booksmart), and Dexter Darden (The Maze Runner).

Watch the trailer below and keep an eye out for The Binge to hit Hulu on August 28th.

Stranger Things Actress Millie Bobby Brown Stars As Sherlock Holmes Teen Sister In New Netflix Movie 'Enola Holmes', Watch The Trailer Now

August 26, 2020

Millie Bobby Brown stars as the teen sister of the famed detective Sherlock Holmes in the upcoming Netflix crime drama, Enola Holmes. The film is based on the Nancy Springer book series “The Enola Holmes Mysteries”, which follows the much younger sister of the Holmes’ brothers. Brown needs no introduction to the Netflix community, as she burst onto the scene in 2016 in the hit sci-fi drama series Stranger Things.

“When Enola Holmes-Sherlock's teen sister-discovers her mother missing, she sets off to find her, becoming a super-sleuth in her own right as she outwits her famous brother and unravels a dangerous conspiracy around a mysterious young Lord.”

From the research I have done it seems Jack Thorne, who penned the screenplay, took some creative freedoms as far as the details surrounding the book series. Based on the trailer alone, and considering I have yet to read the book, this certainly looks to be a blast of a film and a great book-to-screen adaptation. At the very least the trailer sets the bar high as the production value is top-notch. The supporting cast is perfect as well with Henry Cavill and Sam Claflin, Sherlock and Mycroft Homes respectively, so it is safe to say the sky is the limit for Enola Holmes. Yet another direct-to-streaming film as it was confirmed in April that Netflix acquired the rights ensuring it would not get a theatrical release. Either way, I am looking forward to enjoying this in the comfort of my own home.

The film is set to hit Netflix on September 23rd. Watch the new trailer below.

Family-Friendly Comedy 'The War with Grandpa' Teams Up Robert De Niro And Christopher Walken, In Theaters October

August 25, 2020

Is this a PG rated comedy? Yes it is, but when you pair Robert De Niro and Christopher Walken together I don’t care if its a hemorrhoids commercial I am absolutely watching. I know Dirty Grandpa starring De Niro and Zac Efron was hammered by critics and viewers alike, but I actually really enjoyed it. It is one of those raunchy R-rated comedies that you know pretty much what to expect once you’ve seen the trailer. Oddly enough, Dirty Grandpa is the first movie I reviewed for this site nearly 5 years ago, and I remember sitting in the theater and during one of the first scenes De Niro is “keeping himself company” if you know what I mean and Efron walks in on him. An older guy easily late 60’s/early 70’s walked out of the theater right then with the most disgusted look on his face, it was glorious. He was definitely one of those old dudes who shows up to the theater and decides what he wants to see by looking at the movie posters - he won’t make that mistake again.

Now back to the family-friendly content I promised. The War With Grandpa tells the story of a kid named Peter who is upset that he now has to share the room he loves with his grandfather, so he decides to declare war in an attempt to get it back. This forces both sides to team up with their age appropriate friends leading to what looks like some hilarious moments.

Considering it is a PG movie, I was a little hesitant myself at first but with a cast that also includes Uma Thurman, Jane Seymour, Rob Riggle, Cheech Marin, and up-and-coming young actor Oakes Fegley (Pete’s Dragon), this has the makings of a classic the entire family can enjoy. The film is based on a book written by Robert Kimmell Smith.

Watch the trailer for The War with Grandpa below and you can thank me later.

And if interested you can read our review for Dirty Grandpa (2016) here just make sure the kids are in bed before you decide to watch this raunchy comedy.

Jeff Daniels and Brendan Gleeson star as former FBI Director James Comey and President Donald J. Trump in SHOWTIME Two-Part Miniseries 'The Comey Rule'

August 25, 2020

I honestly couldn’t care less about politics in general, I hate this time of year all of the damn signs everywhere like its a fair with no fried dough to be found anywhere. I mean aside from purposely pissing off a few friends or my aunts just so they’ll yell at my dad, they bore me to tears. I mean sure ever since Trump became President politics have become more like The Jersey Shore which I did enjoy watching I will admit that, but still not my thing. Long story short, I only care when it is made into a movie or TV show. Now in just over a month, SHOWTIME is releasing a miniseries called The Comey Rule that will shed some light on the controversy surrounding President Donald J. Trump and former FBI Director James Comey.

“Jeff Daniels and Brendan Gleeson star as former FBI Director James Comey and President Donald J. Trump in this two-part miniseries that tells the story of two powerful men, whose strikingly different ethics and loyalties put them on a collision course.” - SHOWTIME

The miniseries is based on Comey’s No. 1 New York Times bestselling book ‘A Higher Loyalty’ but it also includes a years worth of additional interviews etc. The Comey Rule is said to be an in-depth, behind-the-scenes accounting of the insanity that was the 2016 Presidential election that put Donald J. Trump and Hilary Clinton head to head on the biggest political stage.

comey 1.jpg

Not to get off track, and I know a lot of this series points to an unfair advantage for Trump winning the presidency over Hillary, but let us not forget 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016) an action-packed thriller based on true events starring a jacked John Krazinski and Pablo Schreiber, a time when Hilary left American soldiers to die in Libya because she cared more about politics than American lives. It is directed by Michael Bay and is a damn good movie either way, but it will open your eyes a bit to the devil inside that frail woman. Yeah, she is a real POS.

I didn’t read Comey’s book so I really can’t speak for the facts of The Comey Rule, but it looks entertaining and I love Jeff Bridges and Brendan Gleeson so thats what matters to me at the end of the day. The Comey Rule will premiere as a two-part event on SHOWTIME September 27th. Watch the first trailer below.

Netflix Finalizing Deal To Acquire The Woman in the Window Starring Amy Adams From 20th Century Studios

August 24, 2020

The Woman in the Window, a drama thriller starring Amy Adams, Gary Oldman, and Anthony Mackie, was one of the many films temporarily shelved from its initial theatrical release due to the pandemic. The film is based on the A.J. Finn novel of the same name, which I did read and really enjoyed. It is an immersive page-turner that will keep you guessing right until the very end. Naturally, I was looking forward to the movie hitting theaters so I have been keeping an eye on what the now Disney owned 20th Century Studios decided to do with the film. A number of studios have made the decision to sell the rights to some big name movies that were initially slated to hit theaters.

It has been confirmed that streaming giant Netflix is working on finalizing a deal with 20th Century Studios to acquire exclusive rights to the film which would of course make it a direct-to-streaming movie.

The Woman in the Window is very much a meant for adults sort of story hence the R-rating, so the fact that Disney is working to cut ties prior to release is no surprise really especially considering all of the moving parts with the release calendar heading into 2021. Also, no way would this movie make it to Disney+.

The Woman in the Window tells the story of an agoraphobic child psychologist who befriends a neighbor across the street from her New York City brownstone, only to see her own life turned upside down when the woman disappears and she suspects foul play. It shares some similarities to Gillian Flynn’s The Girl on the Train with the notion that nothing is at it seems. The cast also includes Wyatt Russell, Bryan Tyree Henry, and Julianne Moore.

The deal is still in the works with no word on when the Woman in the Window will make its debut on Netflix, but we will surely keep you updated. Watch the latest trailer below.
