At your wit’s end and you have nowhere else to go, what do you do? Obviously, you become a thief and a robber, and eventually become so good at that that now other con-men start coming to you for help and you start robbing them.
Much easier said than done, at least what the cast of Poor Boy can agree with. First time director Robert Scott Wildes shows off his directing chops in Poor Boy, a film that follows two brothers as they continue a series of robberies in order to survive – until one day they come across a woman who threatens their home and livelihood. Faced with trouble with the law and with other con-men, the two brothers resort to making the greatest heist of all as they try to get away scot-free.
The film stars Michael Shannon as Blayde Griggs, Amanda Crew as Charlene Rox, Justin Chatwin as Jackie Clean,...

From the instant Veronica Mars' Kickstarter campaign raised $2 million in less than 24 hours to make a feature film, every dearly departed TV show with a still-passionate fan following has been rumored for reboot.

And while we wait to see if Chuck, Party Down or Jericho can generate similar interest, Funny Or Die has decided to launch Kickstart or Die in hopes of re-launching 5 fallen shows from the '90s.

Wings, Sliders, Family Matters, Dinosaurs and Darkwing Duck are the projects they landed on after extensive user research and data analysis ... or, the shows they selected after finding out which actors were willing to star in spoof videos.

Luke Eberl is quite the well-rounded filmmaker. Not only is he a very experienced actor, but he’s got a number of credits to his name as a producer, director, writer, cinematographer and editor as well and, with his upcoming feature The Movie, he’s putting the large majority of those skills to use. Eberl is co-writing, directing, producing, shooting and editing the piece about a young man, played by co-writer Edgar Morais, struggling with financial troubles while trying to make it in the film industry out in Los Angeles. The character is ultimately swayed by the Hollywood elite and becomes part of a top tier social circle. The Movie is still in production and very close to crossing over into the post-production phase, but Eberl took some time to talk about the film and...

Chicago – I was So with “Chillerama” when it started. The concept is right in my wheelhouse as I’ve long been a fan of B-movies, having been raised on the works of Roger Corman, Troma, and the writing of Joe Bob Briggs. If “Chillerama” can’t appease me, it’s unlikely to work for anyone. Bad news. Despite its best intentions and clever foundation, the execution here is just off, resulting in a hit-and-miss film that does way too much of the latter half of that equation.
Blu-Ray Rating: 2.0/5.0
Much like “Grindhouse” was an ode to an era of bygone cinema, “Chillerama” attempts to recreate that anything-goes mentality that resulted in some truly over-the-top cult classics by using more than one style and more than one filmmaker to make an anthology of B-movie lunacy. The movie opens with a guy digging up the corpse of his wife and preparing to...
