The general movie going public likely does not know the name of Wally Pfister, but if you are on this site you probably recognize who that is instantly. For those of you who don't, Pfister is the cinematographer behind the classic films The Granny, The Italian Job, and Moneyball. Oh, and he has also shot the Christopher Nolan films Memento, Insomnia, The Prestige, Inception, and all three of The Dark Knight trilogy. While he may be synonymous with the visual style that we associate with...

Look out! The latest episode of everybody's favorite cult movie podcast is upon us, and boy oh boy, is it a doozy.
The first movie on the docket this week is Grotesque from 1988 starring Linda Blair about a gang of overacting punks who terrorize a family at their home in the mountains until the tables are turned in twist after ridiculous twist.
Then we watch as Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson goes on a manhunt to kill those responsible for his brothers murder, all while being trailed by Oliver Jackson-Cohen and Billy Bob Thornton, in the macho action flick Faster from 2010.
And finally, it's a supernatural geriatric killing spree when we laugh our way through the expectedly silly straight-to-video horror comedy The Granny from 1995 directed by Luca Bercovici and starring Stella Stevens and Shannon Whirry.
Also, we have Nerds News, this week's DVD and Blu-Ray releases and much more!

It’s time once again for horror at the Oscars. Sunday’s festivities were filled with folks who have worked in the genre and per usual, I feel if it’s a win for Danny Boyle, it is a win for rage-zombie fans everywhere. Seems like a lot of folks this year are veterans of Exorcist: The Beginning, Amityville: A New Generation and Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Of course, the most important genre win would be Greg Cannom, a staple of 80’s horror effects; he worked on such films as Fright Night Part 2, The Lost Boys and The Howling.
Now some movies on this list might be “kinda horror.” These thrillers or genre-friendly frameworks are on the ghoulish cusp and are marked with an asterisk. Some flicks on the list are there because, what the fuck,...
