Movie Review – Ashe Collins on Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

Title: Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) Director: James Gunn Runtime: 121 minutes — I honestly know next to nothing about this portion of the Marvel comic universe. I’m more into X-Men and have a vague idea about the Avengers and Spider-Man. I have seen them head off and deal with different space issues before, but…


Movie Review – Ashe Collins on Mold! (2012)

Title: Mold! (2012) Director: Neil Meschino Runtime: 86 minutes — I expected Mold! to be something kind of serious; the cover makes it look that way, even with the blurb on the back and comparisons they make. The inside cover has what I’m guessing should have been on the outside of the box in the…


Movie Review – Chris Ranson on Snowpiercer (2014)

Title: Snowpiercer (2014) Director: Joon-ho Bong Runtime: 126 minutes — The other day on Twitter, Ashe mentioned that a new film he wanted to see was getting a limited theatrical release.

I’ll add to that by saying this is probably the most “Bay-like” of…


Movie Review – Chris Ranson on Earth to Echo (2014)

Title: Earth to Echo (2014) Director: Dave Green Runtime: 91 minutes — In 1982, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial was released upon the world and it captured an entire generation of moviegoers. E.T. still stands strong in my top ten films of all time. Since then, a few films have been released in the hope of capturing…


Third Annual Cinefessions Summer Screams Challenge (#CSSC3) – Week One Preview

I’d be lying if I said that I haven’t been looking forward to this day since July 1st of last year. June on Cinefessions has become a month to anticipate, and this year is shaping up wonderfully. Though the participant numbers may not be as high as last year, the conversation on twitter has already…


Third Annual Cinefessions Summer Screams Challenge (#CSSC3)

 The Third Annual Cinefessions Summer Screams Challenge Once is a mistake. Twice is a coincidence. Three times is a tradition, and that is exactly what the Cinefessions Summer Screams Challenge is becoming. Started back in 2012, the Second Annual Cinefessions Summer Screams Challenge took things to a whole new level, and the participants followed suit. You…
