Bill Murray is one of the most consistently funny men in the history of modern cinema, and one of those folks who can make even the most mediocre scripts rather enjoyable. Such is the case with SCROOGED, the film that I’ve chosen as the #9 Christmas film of all time…

Well, I figured since the holidays are upon us, and I’ve really been short of time to see a lot of new movies, I figured I’d go through and review some of my favorite Christmas (Hannaukah, Kwanzaa, Festivus, whatever you celebrate, stay off my back!) movies of all time…

For some reason, people kind of look at me funny whenever I make mention of the title of this film. I guess it has something to do with the connotation that has come from multiple scandals involving Catholic priests and the younger boys involved in the church.

Well, since we’re only a couple days away from my favorite holiday, All Hallow’s Eve/Samhain/Halloween, it would only be fitting for me to talk about one of my favorite horror movies of all time. Even better, the final chapter in the greatest horror movie series of all time…

Okay, I’ll get this out of the way first: MEET THE FEEBLES is like the Muppet Show on acid. Yes, that’s the description that you’ll find in anyone’s review of this film, but the reason why the cliche is there is that nothing could be more true…

HEAVENLY CREATURES sits near the top of my list of all-time favorite movies. Since my first viewing of the film on video in 1995, I have been in love with this movie. And yet, after 7-odd years, I’ve never had the nerve to write about it…
