May 25, 2009Creatures in the Fog/Stephen King Adaptation
Frank Darabont delivers one of the best Stephen King adaptations where the story of people at siege in a supermarket from unseen creatures in a mystery fog outside becomes a strong study in fear and prejudice, while the film comes with one of the great unforgettable endings

Sep 13, 2015Animation/Comic-Book Superheroes
Not so much a Justice League film as an Aquaman origin film, which at least conducts a character oft regard as a DC laughing stock with suitable dignity. I'm not a big fan of The New 52 continuity rewrite and this follows suit with fairly middling results

Mar 3, 2017Undead Cop/Graphic Novel Adaptation
Comic-book adaptation about a cop that is resurrected from the dead to take on the toughest assignments. Feels like a throwback to an 80s film like Maniac Cop or Dead Heat where the film is killed by the tiresomely cliched appropriation of the faux grindhouse aesthetic
