Previously on Midlife Crisis Crossover: I saw four (4) whole movies in theaters in 2020, the Purgatory That Only Pretended to Be a Year on the Calendar. For those of us […]

Hijinks at the Fire Department – Playing with Fire (2019)
Now I’ve watched all the Final Destination films, here are my final thoughts. I was initially drawn to the franchise due to the interesting concept. In too many horror films the villain is something solid and escapable whereas here you’ll get caught eventually no matter what. What started out as an interesting concept quickly became […]

Butter on the Latch – #MovieReview
Looking to be frightened I chose Wes Craven’s Shocker. I had never seen it and while watching it, had no recollection. I wasn’t too shocked or frightened. Then again, as a pre-senior, I’ve experienced scarier parts of life. I’m sorry, it’s hard to watch movies nowadays and see the stupid shit, based on how […]

Nostalgia Review: Doctor Dolittle (1998)
Something vital occurs when an actor discovers their perfect persona – an extrapolation of their whole comic world that carries an entire world along with it. So it was with Billy Madison, Adam Sandler’s film about a developmentally challenged twenty-something who retakes every school grade in twenty-four weeks to make himself eligible to inherit his […]

2021 Movie Draft: Half Nelson (2006)
During the 70s and early 80s, radio was a common period effect in American cinema. Directors frequently used radio to anchor the Depression-era dramas that proliferated during these years, presenting it as a nostalgia effect with no real presence in the present. That all started to change in the wake of DJ culture, however, and […]
