Yes, Wicked, the Broadway smash hit that has productions around the world and is always touring, all to packed audiences, has finally flown onto the big screen (pun intended). The script, music, lyrics, visuals, choreography, and performances immediately immerse you and sweep you up for a magical ride through Oz that will make you wonder…

2023 had no shortage of weird movies. Sure, superheroes and lightsabers have dominated the box office for the last decade or so, but films like Barbie, Infinity Pool, and Dream Scenario proved that there’s still room for unique, outside-the-box storytelling in today’s cinematic landscape. It’s just a great time to be a movie fan, so…

I’m a big fan of haunted house movies. If there’s a malevolent spirit tormenting a group of unsuspecting victims, I’ll always be down to see it, so naturally, when I first heard about Night Swim, I was immediately intrigued. Not only did this film look like it would offer a fun haunted house experience, but…

If you walk into a room of hardcore horror fans and ask them to name the best John Carpenter film, about 99% of them are probably going to give one of two answers. They’ll say either Halloween or The Thing, and with good reason. Those are hands down his two best and most famous movies,…
