Rating: R Stars: David Harbour, John Leguizamo, Leah Brady, Alex Hassell, Alexis Louder, Beverly D’Angelo, Edi Patterson, Cam Gigandet, Alexander Elliot Writers: Pat Casey & Josh Miller Director: Tommy Wirkola Distributor: Universal Pictures Release Date: December 2, 2022 VIOLENT NIGHT is a mashup of genres that don’t normally co-exist. Sure, we’ve seen movies about men burned out at their jobs who rise to heroic heights on Christmas Eve (yes, DIE HARD is a Christmas movie). But when that man is the actual Santa Claus, he generally banishes the bah-humbug blues in a gentler fashion, or at least without the hard-R […]Read On »

In CBS’ new drama series RECKLESS, Sundays at 9 PM, scandal rips through Charleston, South Carolina. When a (possibly nonconsensual) sex tape involving a number of police officers – multiple men with one woman (Georgina Haig) – surfaces, it leads to a firing, a lawsuit and a clash between a Yankee plaintiff lawyer (Anna Wood) and an aspiring politician representing the police department’s interests (Cam Gigadet). Shawn Hatosy (pronounced HAT-oh-see) plays Terry McCandless, the officer who is the evident ringleader in what’s happening on the tape. Hatosy is no stranger to playing law enforcement personnel – he starred in five […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Paul Bettany, Karl Urban, Cam Gigandet, Maggie Q, Lily Collins, Christopher Plummer, Stephen Moyer Writer: Cory Goodman, based on the graphic novel series by Min-Woo Hyung Director: Scott Stewart Distributor: Screen Gems Release Date: May 13, 2011 PRIEST is a decent enough post-apocalyptic action movie, pitting a kinetic superhero against an army of darkness, but the film’s reliance on archetypes is at odds with what seem to be its intended philosophical underpinnings. By the end, we can’t tell if director Scott Stewart and screenwriter Cory Goodman have intentionally managed to avoid being overly pretentious in adapting Min-Woo […]Read On »

During the PRIEST press event at WonderCon 2011 in San Francisco, Paul Bettany’s co-star Cam Gigandet threw him under the bus about an embarrassing moment where he had to have training wheels installed on his bike because it was too dangerous to ride. Of course, ASSIGNMENT X had to ask Bettany about it. “I had this big ass bike, and I was allowed to ride it if only it was a straight line,” Bettany says. “But when a stuntman came off the bike at about 35 miles per hour, they said that they weren’t too sure about me being up […]Read On »

They are bad ass. And they can take on any of these other genre of vampires and snap them like that [snaps fingers].” PRIEST about a warrior priest who wipes out vampires opens May 13 in 3D.
