Rating: R Stars: Russell Crowe, Ryan Simpkins, Sam Worthington, Chloe Bailey, Adam Goldberg, Adrian Pasdar, David Hyde Pierce Writers: M.A. Fortin & Joshua John Miller Director: Joshua John Miller Distributor: Vertical Entertainment/Miramax Release Date: June 21, 2024 THE EXORCISM has an opening sequence that makes us chuckle, then yelp. For most of its running time, it commendably walks the tightrope between filmmaking lore, meta commentary and straight-up horror. For those who may be understandably confused, THE EXORCISM stars Russell Crowe, but it is not connected legally, in plotline or in tone to that other recent Crowe vehicle, 2023’s THE POPE’S […]Read On »

Interview: WRATH OF THE TITANS composer Javier Navarrete fights for gods and men

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER 04/15/2012

In WRATH OF THE TITANS, a menagerie of ancient beasts and angry gods are unleashed upon the world of men, all due to the declining prayers directed at Zeus and his brethren on Mount Olympus. However, Hollywood’s cinematic worship towards ancient Greece’s supreme being, let alone legendary deities in general, is more than boisterous given the current films inspired by the mythic clashes of old. Not only are these pictures a boon for today’s CGI effects wizards to indulge in their Ray Harryhausen-inspired love of stop-motion giant monsters, but they’re equally heaven-sent for composers to unleash the own musically epic […]Read On »
