Read more: Bad Santa 2 (2016)Bad Santa 2 (2016) The original Bad Santa was a hilarious gut-punch to everything traditionally Christmas, from the nauseating movie It’s a Wonderful Life to Santa’s plastic reindeer. Bad Santa 2 was just a 13 year later gut-punch to the viewer, one that no one needed. Sequels, especially much delayed sequels are always suspect, but…

The original Jeepers Creepers was a dark, creepy and effective horror movie until about the last 20 minutes. It has been awhile since I saw the original, but I remember the introduction to the Creeper was pretty terrifying. Jeepers Creepers 2 was…

Read more: Prisoners (2013)After being totally blown away by the current epic Blade Runner 2049, I decided to pick up and screen a copy of Prisoners (2013), one of Villeneuve’s earlier movies.
