Speaking with Dread, producer Brown said of the sway (as indicated in the press notes) of The Shining and Rosemary’s Baby on her film (which revolves around five ambitious cousins who gather at their family’s homestead to claim an inheritance, only to find themselves thrust into a world of terrifying rituals,...

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (20th Century Fox) Sequel to the seminal 1980s film catches up with a weathered, but still determined Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas, who seems to savor every syllable of Allan Loeb and Stephen Schiff’s screenplay) just out of jail and back on the comeback trail. In attempting to repair his relationship with his estranged daughter (Carey Mulligan), Gekko forges a reluctant alliance with her fiancé (Shia Labeouf), himself an ambitious young turk who finds himself seduced by Gekko’s silver tongue and promise of riches. Lifeless film is further evidence of director Oliver Stone’s decline. Once America’s most exciting filmmaker, Stone hasn’t delivered a film with any teeth since 1995’s Nixon. Labeouf and Mulligan generate no sparks on-screen, and the story feels forced from the protracted opening to the final, Disney-esque denouement. Only a brief cameo by Charlie Sheen,...

My thoughts on Nite Tales: The Series can be summed up very simply and concisely. I hate this show. I hate everyone involved in this project. I hate the producers who put up the money to make this piece of crap. If you like Nite Tales, I want to punch you in the face. Flavor Flav, even your self-aware camp cannot save this show. Nite Tales is The Twilight Zone without brains, creativity, or talent, and if you must watch it, I recommend getting extremely drunk or high before doing so.
Nite Tales only lasted for five 20-minute episodes, but it still took alcohol and excessive yelling at my television to get through the experience. The first episode involves a security guard in a warehouse full of mannequins. The second episode was about a young woman who visits a psychic to try to contact her father who died a year ago.
