{ togawp } - hollywood’s secret sauce

Everyone told me House of Wax sucked, so I was hoping for the worst when I watched it. What I got was one of the goriest horror films of the year (next to High Tension which is gorier and better). But I’m not a gore fan, I’m a suspense fan, so I found [...]

I know you’re sitting there right now going “What the fuck is Mindhunters?” It was that hidden gem of a movie lost amidst the shit fest of summer cinema that flew at our faces this year. WIth an ensemble cast including LL Cool J, Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, Johnny Lee Miller and that [...]

I guess a lot of people weren’t that into this movie for their own preachy pro life reasons but I found this movie hilarious. Sure fans of “Welcome To The Dollhouse”, “Happiness” and “Storytelling” are going to have high hopes but I didn’t think that Todd Solondz could out-do his best work so I [...]

Yeah this is that documentary about Krumpers and Clowns by glam pop photographer turned music video director David LaChappelle. He was directing Christina Aguilera’s infamous “Dirrrty” video and discovered these “urban” freestyling backup dancers who were krumping in between takes. He decided to follow them around South Central LA for a while and [...]

Ok, I know I said ghosts were cool but this ghost movie was kinda retarded. Mark Ruffalo is ok in my book. He survived some kinda brain tumor thing and is now acting up a storm but if you know me, you know I hate Crab-face Witherspoon with a passion. [...]

That’s right folks, I just watched 2 films in a row, both featuring Will Ferrel and a personal cappuccino machine: Kicking & Screaming and Bewitched!*. Both movies are forgettable except for a few random funny Ferrel moments, none of which compare to Old School, Anchorman or Elf, but [...]

Holy shit, this movie is cool. Anything with ghosts is cool in my book, even Casper with Christina Ricci and Bill Pullman. Ghosts are just awesome and there’s nothing you can do about it. This movie is about a woman and her family who lived in some fucked up haunted house [...]

Sean Penn looks more swollen than ever. Nikki Kid looks like the Ice Queen of Narnia in The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe. What is this movie about again? She overhears someone talking about murdering someone else? Big deal. I talk about murdering people all damn day. [...]

Talk about a shitty remake. They totally left out the red-eyed pig demon, and pretty much everything else that was remotely scary from the original. Sure, watching Ryan Reynolds run around shirtless with a bear and an axe is kinda cool but everything else blows. This looks and feels more [...]
