Flixens: Movies, DVDs, TV, comic books and pop culture for women. The boys shouldn't have all the fun.

Sorry, guys, but this move has taken up all my free time in the last week and a half. I'm in the house on Monday, and I should have my DSL hooked up by Monday night. If everything works out,...

This is my forty-fifth post since reactivating the blog. Not bad. I've been a wee bit sporadic, but to be fair... my son's birthday was yesterday, and the 4th of July was this week, too. I'm working my ass off...

I have to say, I really like the HELLBOY animated films so far. I like Hellboy in general. I think Mike Mignola struck paydirt with the character, the world, the supporting cast, the tone, the look... all of it. And...

I think it's safe to say that Rupert Grint's going to have a post-POTTER career if he wants one. Watching this one is very strange, especially if you do so right after you see a HARRY POTTER film like the...

Patrick Smash... we salute you. Now let's blow ass. This may be the most profoundly silly film I've ever seen, and part of the reason it works is because everyone plays it deadly serious. There's never a moment where anyone...

... over the holiday and involving my impending move is going to keep me from updating until later today. I'm onset for FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL all day, then going to a HARRY POTTER screening tonight. But I'll return. I'll make...

Okay... so a few days ago, I wrote something about THE FILM CREW, a new project starring Mike Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy. It was a quick review, not terribly long. But in writing it, I riled up a...

I'll be back with more reviews on the Fifth. Today, I'm busy stuffing myself with barbecue and getting ready to move. Enjoy your holiday everybody!...

Is this one really 21 years old at this point? I really, really, really like Dragon Dynasty as a label so far. I think the work they're doing and the prints they're releasing and the titles they're choosing speak well...

What a strange, strange little movie. Graham Robertson's experimental film not only predates SIN CITY and SKY CAPTAIN THE WORLD OF TOMORROW, it was probably made for a fraction of what either one of them cost. It looks very, very...

Quite the cover, eh? The first thing that got me to put this in was the fact that Christina Lindberg's in it. She's the star of THEY CALL ME ONE-EYE (or THRILLER: A CRUEL PICTURE), and she's adorable. It's one...

I love MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000. And I miss it. But I don't miss it so much that I'll just accept any substitute and consider that an acceptable fix. I tried Rifftrax last year, and I have to say... I...

This cover for VERONICA MARS Season Three shore is purty:...

So I went to Big Lots!, a store with an amazingly stupid name. Just parking outside, I felt like I was a cast member in IDIOCRACY. But I went because I wanted something very specific, something that might help me...

I'm moving next month. Last year, my family and I moved into a house in North Hollywood. Well, Arleta, technically, but no one knows where that is. It's north North Hollywood, or East Van Nuys. We're renting this place, and...

Wanna check out my review of Michael Moore's SICKO? It's right here....

... I would recommend that anyone interested in the technical craft of film take a look at this link. I knew most of this, but it's different to actually see the scenes and the comparisons. Fincher's one of the few...

The one and only Flmlvr just forwarded me this link, and it's pretty amazing. I knew this was going on this past Wednesday, and it would have been cool to attend, but the hardcores were out there for days, and...

I just read this: This Friday evening, June 29th, starting at 11:59 pm PST (that's 06:49 am UTC on June 30th), we'll be taking TypePad offline for approximately two hours to perform routine maintenance. During this time, the TypePad service,...

Again... what the hell?!? I love that the IMDb title for this is FURANKENSHUTAIN TAI CHITEI KAIJU BARAGON. That's pretty much all you need to know, isn't it? Frankenstein. Kaiju. Baragon. Maybe I'm giving my inner-ten-year-old more leash than normal...
