Resident Evil: Retribution is Broken
Resident Evil: Retribution is not a film. It’s a broken video game, whose code has gone sour, crashing together in explosions of non-sequitur, desperate to excite. I like it. Like every film of the franchise the first fifteen are the strongest, with a straight lift...
Resident Evil: After Life Proves That Nothing Matters
RESIDENT EVIL: AFTER LIFE is an empty endeavor in search of a purpose. Alice wanders the world looking for something, anything to give her a reason to keep moving, and all she finds are computer generated backdrops. It’s an unsubtle metaphor for the whole franchise....
Resident Evil: Extinction is a Dusty Mess
Is RESIDENT EVIL the most nihilistic big budget film franchise out there? Every single entry is hard reboot on the series. No matter what Alice (Milla Jovovich) does it all goes to shit by the time the next one starts. There are no happy endings in RESIDENT EVIL. Yet,...

Resident Evil: Apocalypse is Awesome
A guy jumps out of a helicopter firing two guns at zombies. I think about this a lot. Why don't like people love RESIDENT EVIL APOCALYPSE? I've heard people call it cheap fan pandering garbage. They rant and rave that it doesn't have the smooth action of the first one...
The Frustrations of OPERATION MEKONG (2016) – Review
I find Dante Lam the most frustrating director working right now. Every time I watch one of his films I go in with the hope that he's going to deliver something great, something that will rekindle the golden age of classic Hong Kong action cinema, and he's always so...
Resident Evil is Boring
In 2002, it was a big deal for a young Justin Decloux to see RESIDENT EVIL. He was infatuated with the idea of zombie movies, but has never played the RE video games (he doesn't own any systems). He prepares himself for a terrifying experience because he's seen the...
Fritz Lang Sex Machine – The Important Cinema Club #52
The Important Cinema Club discuss the king of dictatorial director's Fritz Lang - from his super productions in Germany to his studio assignments in America. [soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/303172524"...
Weird on the Road with MOTORAMA – Review
Motorama is pure fever dream cinema and the kind of film that just doesn't get made anymore: A medium budget David Lynchian road adventure that is equally cock-eyed dark comedy and R rated metaphorical journey that happens to star a kid. It could only exist at a time...
