There have only been a few moments in my rabid fandom of film that a movie has hit this close to home; Bellflower is one of those films.

John and I had a chance to check out the the latest edition in this Holloween seasons horror genre Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark. The film is written and Produced by Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hell Boy) and Directed by Troy Nixey the film stars Katie Holmes (Batman Begins) and Guy Pearce (Memento) . The haunting tale of a little girl plagued by the hunger of little creatures is a little lacking at times, but is it a total bust? Find out in this video review of Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark.

Angela and I sat down during SXSW at the IFC Crossroads House in Austin to talk about the film Small, Beautifully Moving Parts, a film about a pregnant tech-geek that is more interested in the technology surrounding her pregnancy than her actual pregnancy.

Find out what we thought about the film in the video review below...

Here in Austin, for SXSW 2011, James Gunn (Slither) premiered his newest film, Super, starring Rainn Wilson and Ellen Page in what has been called the adult-Kick-Ass. The first thing I said was, “Kick-Ass is the adult Kick-Ass.” Well, there were onto something when they said that. If there was a line that was crossed when Kick-Ass came out last year, Super crossed that line, set it on fire and then kept going until they went over the cliff. We had a difference of opinions when it came to our thoughts on Super. Check...

Source Code is definitely one of those films that you want all of your friends to check out, but you have a really hard time trying to sell it to them for fear of spoiling something major.

Just tell them to trust you, or physically take them with you to see it again. In the mean time, check out our video review of Source Code and let us know what you think when you...

Two dudes get a chance to see a “dudes” type of film as Ryan and John take up arms and review Battle: Los Angeles. This is the summer of action with well known comic book characters Thor, Green Lantern and Captain America arriving in theaters between May and July. In addition to the lesser known graphic novel adaptation of Cowboys and Aliens, and the toy to film roots of Transformers: Dark of The Moon, it would seem that an original non-adaptation in the “alien invaders from space genre,” Battle:...

The Rite is definitely going to wake you up from your winter coma, however, there is such a heavy, hidden meaning within the film, that it can be hard to swallow at times. The Rite stars Anthony Hopkins as the go-to priest for exorcists in Rome. He is quirky and modern, which provides some chuckles, but even he can’t avoid possession all the time. Watch below to see what Ryan and Angela thought of the thriller hitting theatres this Friday that 28th. Let us know what you thought of the film, if you dare to venture out this...

Forget what you knew of the original show, Seth Rogen took the show and kicked it up a notch. The Green Hornet is full of fun and awesome, in that order. The 3D is spectacular for post-conversion as well. Seth Rogen wrote, produced and stars in this film along side Jay Chou as Kato and Christoph Waltz as Chudnofsky. There are also stars such as Cameron Diaz and Tom Wilkinson.
As long as you go into this film with a fun attitude and not in the mood to pick a film apart, you will have no problem loving this film as much as we did....
