When I sat down to watch Legend of Drunken Master (1994) I didn't really hover around. I didn't pay attention to who the stars were, and I had the vague idea from the title that it was going to be a Martial Arts film. I had no idea that it was a Jackie Chan film.

Jackie Chan? Remember? That guy who made all those crazy zany action films in the nineties and early two thousands? I practically grew up during the American explosion of this martial arts stuntman. And it's easily been more than a decade since I watched one of his films.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens - A Prediction Before Viewing

So if you haven't noticed, there's a new Star Wars film coming out with amazing trailers that look awesome. However, as someone who thoroughly doesn't trust trailers anymore, none of this makes me think that I'm going to see an amazing film Thursday Night (stay tuned for the review!!)

Although I really hope so.

Film Review: Krampus (2015)

Directed by: Michael Dougherty
Written by: Todd Casey, Michael Dougherty, Zach Shields
Starring: Adam Scott, Toni Collette, David Koechner, Allison Tolman, Conchata Ferrell, Emjay Anthony, Stefania LaVie Owen, Krista Stadler

If you're like me, you saw the trailer to Krampus and rolled your eyes. The idea of a Christmas horror film is as done to death as every other type of Christmas film. I still remember being a small child in a few video rental stores back in the day, glancing up at the cover of Jack Frost (the slasher flick, not the dead dad movie) and thinking about how silly it looked.
