To Heist or Not to Heist
by Melissa Uhrin
This whole "needing money to win at life" thing is a bitch. Money for food and the four "H"'s: Housing. Heat. Hydration. Hygiene. Just the basics required to survive another day.

Glutton for Punishment: The Sexploiters
by JB
We are all interested in bad movies, inexcusable cinema, worse-than-mediocre pictures, and paying sultry women to eat ice cream in our presence, for that is the stuff we use to fill the empty spaces in our lives. You are interested in the unknown, the exotic, and the erotic—that is why you are here. And now, for the first time, we bring you the full story of some of the WORST MOVIES EVER MADE. We bring you the evidence, based only on the secret testimony of the miserable soul who survived a harsh whipping… er, I mean screening. I am that miserable soul. The absurdly low budgets, the cramped soundstages, the ridiculous plots, the thigh-high stockings—my friend, we cannot keep them a secret any longer. Let us punish the guilty. Let us reward the innocent. Remember, my friends: terrible movies such as these will affect you in the future!

Antiviral: The Junior Cronenberg
by Cass Cannon
I began this week with a mission. That mission? To watch at least one David Cronenberg movie every day. As to why, I have no f'ing clue...but here I am, finishing a blissful seven-day bender of blood, boobs, flesh, and flesh. And flesh. On this journey, I discovered (definitely late to the game on this one) that Antiviral—a movie I really enjoyed when I saw it a couple of years ago—is directed and written by none other than Papa Cronenberg's son, Brandon Cronenberg. I loved this movie when I saw it. It was weird, beautifully art directed, and simply put: a good time.
However.
However.

Review: The Jungle Book (2016)
by Patrick Bromley
As the live-action adaptations of classic Disney animated films go, Jon Favreau's The Jungle Book is pretty good -- miles ahead of junk like Alice in Wonderland and Maleficent and maybe about as good as Kenneth Branagh's Cinderella. The filmmakers really accomplished translating an animated movie into live action. So...now what?

Cinema Bestius: The Thin Blue Line
Sometimes, when art is very, very good, art bleeds into real life and makes real life manifestly better. This is one of the highest callings of art.

Twinsies: Deep Impact v. Armageddon
by Alex Lawson
Scarcely a month goes by without Hollywood’s dwindling originality coming more clearly into focus. The industry’s penchant for regurgitating known properties is pretty entrenched at this point, and you can certainly understand why: familiarity is comforting to consumers in any industry, and when the money at stake climbs as high as it does in the studio talking picture racket, the urge to retreat to established commodities becomes too strong to ignore.
