Wow. Director Alex Popov has done what the Brothers Strauss failed to accomplish: Create an awesome Aliens vs. Predator fan film. Sure it’s got its share of hammy acting and cheap special effects, but this is a fan film; not a Hollywood production. Someone get this guy a contract. The rest of you make sure […]

One of the best parts of Grindhouse was its trailers, and the one for Machete was quite wonderful. In fact, I’d rather watch the trailer 100 times than Deathproof one more time. NOW, the Machete movie is on its way and it’s more than a goof, it’s an experience. A la The Expendables, the cast […]
