 by JB

If you are like me, gentle reader, you have been enjoying all the seven-word SMM reviews here for the past 22 days. You have doubtless noticed that some films, beloved and popular, keep showing up again and again and again and again. But... shouldn’t Scary Movie Month be partially devoted to NEW spooky discoveries?

The Happy and Heartwarming HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS

by Robyn Buckley

I love Rick Moranis. That’s a fairly well-documented fact as I am not shy about admitting my fondness for him. He is one of the earliest celebrity crushes that I can recall. My affection for him is mainly rooted in a deep love for Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors, but that is an article for another time. Many other movies cemented my love, and for 1989 week I will be focusing on Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. So join me in shrinking down and going back in time to 1989.

Like You Were There: Full Moon Roadshow Comes to Chicago

 

I'm always jealous of the people living in places like Los Angeles and Austin who are able to take advantage not just of the regular programming at theaters like the New Beverly and the Alamo Drafthouse, but also the special events (QT Fest, or Harry Knowles' Butt-Numb-a-Thon, or The Wright Stuff or Dante's Inferno) that never make their way to Chicago. I'm also frustrated that so few bloggers (of which there is a tremendous shortage) take the time to write about those experiences, so that those of us who are thousands of miles away and only dreaming about attending can live vicariously through their words. With that in mind, we at F This Movie! would like to introduce a semi-recurring (?) feature: "Like You Were There." In the first installment, Charles Band and Full Moon Entertainment hit the Windy City with a triple bill of Stuart Gordon/Jeffrey Combs/Barbara Crampton classics and the world premiere of Evil Bong 3D: The Wrath of Bong. Not all movies are created equal.
