Okay, okay. In response to this post , my in-box is full of angry brickbats from readers who liked the made-for-tv Shining movie. Apparently, King hated the Kubrick version -- which I think was one of the few Kubrick movies that wasn't overrated! -- and he, and quite a few King fans, think the miniseries was a more faithful adaptation of the book. Noted. Perhaps my curmudgeonly attitude is attributable...
What an awful, awful idea. I had to look up something about The Shining and found out they made a remake with Steven Weber (the goofy ladies' man from Wings) in the Jack Nicholson role and Rebecca De Mornay in the Shelley Duvall part. Melvin Van Peeples picks up the torch from Scatman Crothers. It's like one of those fake movies Bill Murray previews at the beginning of Scrooged. Like this one: The...

I like top 5's and with today being Halloween what better time to share with you my favourite scary movies. 1. The Shining Released in 1980. A family with Jack Nicholson as Dad become the winter housesitters of a hotel in the mountains of Colorado. Nicholson's character Jack Torrance is writing a book but the isolated hotel's ghosts take hold of him and insanity takes over Torrance played magnificently...
I know what you’re probably thinking…’Frankenweenie’ sounds like the title for a really sketchy, Halloween themed, -ahem- adult film, right? In reality, it is just one more family-friendly piece of brilliance from the mind of director Tim Burton. One of Burton’s first projects, Frankenweenie is a black and white short film about young Vincent, whose dog [...]

With this week's release of Jennifer's Body it is inevitable the topic of scream queens will come up, and even if it doesn't… I'm bringing it up, but not in the form of a top ten. I really don't see how you can rank these ladies, or what purpose it would serve as several could [...]
Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme is one of those rare experiences in children's programming that is so weird and unique, that despite its many dated qualities and failings, it withstands the test of time where it counts.
For some reason, Rachel " Chupacabra " Zoe is in Blanco, TX. Maybe she was styling Shelley Duvall for the Roswell UFO Festival? Yeah, who knows, but somehow Chupa ended up passing out in some dude's barn. She probably had too much Starbucks and Adderall and crashed majorly. Chupa was discovered by some hillbillies who took her to the local taxidermist. It's happened before. Chupa will be...
Rafael Nadal shows off his bulging muscles. Shelley Duvall is convinced there are aliens in her backyard. Alia Shawkat is Young Hollywood hot. Kim Kardashian wears acid wash. Leonardo DiCaprio travels in style. Adam Lambert is protested. Robert Pattinson does French Premiere. Is Macaulay Culkin the father of Blanket Jackson? Sharon Stone still has basic instincts. Tyra Banks and Rachael Ray take home...
Shelley Duvall hasn't made a movie since 2002 and the neighbors in her town say it's because she's too busy trying to keep the aliens from taking over her body. L. Ron Hubbard just jizzed in his chonies. So did Fox Mulder . One neighbor of Shelley's in Blano, Texas told The Globe (via CM ) that she has been seen patrolling her backyard late at night, because she really believes her home is a portal...
