    'Phantasm' Review: More Style Than Substance, But It Works!

    Rotten Tomatoes - 100% IMDb - 6.6/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - C Matt - B Shane - B THEME: Pre 1980 Movies Chosen By: Matt McNeal Phantasm is one of the most unique and visually creative horror movies out there. The 70s campiness, mixed with the surrealistic qualities, make for a dream-like experience.

  3. 'Dr. Terror's House of Horror' Review: A Horror Anthology That Is Spooky Rather Than Scary

    'Dr. Terror's House of Horror' Review: A Horror Anthology That Is Spooky Rather Than Scary

    Rotten Tomatoes - 100% IMDb - 6.6/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - C Matt - B Shane - B THEME: Pre 1980 Movies Chosen By: Matt McNeal This horror anthology has an all-star cast and an undeniably 60s charm. It is an entertaining watch, but it goes more for a PG spooky atmosphere than true scares. Those looking for terror will be disappointed.

    Rotten Tomatoes - 78% IMDb - 6.7/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - B Matt - C Shane - S THEME: Pre 1980 Movies Chosen By: Shane Cronican We're kicking off our new theme with an action classic, led by a pillar of American Cinema, that helped shape the modern action genre. All due credit is given for its impact, but does it hold up as entertainment over 50 years after its release?

    Rotten Tomatoes - 78% IMDb - 6.7/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - C Matt - D Shane - C THEME: Police/Detective Movies Chosen By: Shane Cronican Unfortunately, we end this theme rotation with another disappointment of failed potential. A thought provoking story with an incredible all-star cast just doesn't come together like it should.

    'The Frozen Ground Review': An Interesting Story Ruined By Poor Filmmaking

    Rotten Tomatoes - 60% IMDb - 6.4/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - F Matt - F Nate - D Shane - D THEME: Police/Detective Movies Chosen By: Nate Dudley Based on the true story of the hunt for Alaska's most dangerous serial killer, with Nic Cage squaring off against John Cusack; The foundation is here for a great thriller.

  7. 'In the Heat of the Night' Review: Better As a Racially Infused Drama Than a Murder Mystery

    'In the Heat of the Night' Review: Better As a Racially Infused Drama Than a Murder Mystery

    Rotten Tomatoes - 96% IMDb - 7.9/10 OUR SCORES; Aaron - B Matt - B Shane - B THEME: Police/Detective Movies Chosen By: Matt McNeal In the Heat of the Night (1967) deserves its place in film history as a groundbreaking drama examining racial tension, and for having a masterful performance from Sidney Poitier. Unfortunately, the murder mystery at its core is uninspired and its conclusion is a rushed letdown.

  8. 'Insomnia' Review: A Psychological Thriller Elevated By Powerhouse Performances

    FEB 5

    'Insomnia' Review: A Psychological Thriller Elevated By Powerhouse Performances

    Rotten Tomatoes - 92% IMDb - 7.2/10 Our Scores; Matt - B Shane - B Steve - B Theme: Police/Detective Movies Chosen By: Steve Rushlau Insomnia (2002) smartly forgoes the typical murder mystery trappings and becomes a tense cat-and-mouse thriller. The mystery takes a backseat to the psychological showdown between Al Pacino and Robin Williams, and they put on an acting clinic!
