Michael Rooker steps into the role of Sheriff Alan Pangborn in The Dark Half, with George A. Romero writing and directing this adaptation of Stephen King’s novel. Timothy Hutton, Amy Madigan and Julie Harris lead the cast alongside him. [catalog.afi.com] , [en.wikipedia.org] And this time, Pangborn has one heck of a murder mystery on his hands. ✍️ Meet Thad Beaumont... And George Stark Timothy Hutton plays writer Thad Beaumont, a respectable author who has another literary identity. George Stark. Stark is the pseudonym Thad uses for his murder thrillers. But when Thad decides it's time to retire his alter ego, he doesn't simply make an announcement. He stages a mock burial. Goodbye, George Stark. Rest in peace. Except... George apparently didn't get the memo. 😳 A series of murders begins, and evid...

We’re not leaving Castle Rock just yet. Because there’s a new store in town. And Sheriff Alan Pangborn has a feeling something isn't quite right. Ed Harris plays Pangborn in the 1993 adaptation of Stephen King’s Needful Things, directed by Fraser C. Heston. And for Coconutdaddy, the Sheriff is the man we’re following this time. [en.wikipedia.org] , [imdb.com] Pangborn is trying to make sense of a peaceful little town that suddenly seems determined to tear itself apart. And standing quietly in the middle of it all is... Mr. Leland Gaunt. Oh, what a name. And OH, what an actor. 🎩 Welcome to Needful Things Max von Sydow plays Leland Gaunt, the mysterious proprietor of a newly opened antique shop called Needful Things. His merchandise seems almost impossibly tailored to the deepest desires of each customer. [en.wikipedia.org] , [imdb.com] You want it? He has it. Can't afford it? Oh, don't worry. Mr. Gaunt is very reasonable. Just pay a little money... And do him one tiny favo...

As promised, Hoot’n & Holler’n is going back to Disney World and those wonderfully ridiculous 1990s sitcom episodes that convinced us a family vacation to Disney was practically a supernatural event. The episode description puts it perfectly: apparently one episode wasn’t enough for all the lies '90s sitcoms told us about Disney World. [youtube.com] This time around, the gang skims through Boy Meets World, whose Disney adventure has shades of the Family Matters trip, except without a supernaturally powered Urkel running around making the Magic Kingdom even more magical. But then Matt gets into Full House... Ohhhhhh boy. 😂 Continuity? What's that? We get inconsistencies, fourth-wall-breaking weirdness, and Disney characters wandering into sitcom reality as if Mickey Mouse had always been a perfectly normal member of the Tanner family's extended social circle. And that's what makes revisiting these episodes so much fun. You can almost hear the writers saying: ...

Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith are back behind the microphones with more hilarious, unfiltered Hollywood storytelling in Hizzouse #8. The show itself is built around the longtime friends talking comics, Hollywood, family and whatever else wanders into the conversation, with basically “no format, no guests, no plan.” [youtube.com] And honestly, that’s exactly why it works. One of the stories this time involves Jason Mewes recalling a real-life confrontation involving Spider-Man himself, Tobey Maguire. 🕷️😳 For longtime View Askew fans, though, there’s another layer to listening to Mewes and Smith together. Mewes has been remarkably open over the years about the difficult periods of his life, so hearing these two old friends sitting together today, laughing and swapping stories, gives the comedy a little extra heart. And, of course, Coconutdaddy remembers Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. The wild adventures of Jay and Silent Bob may have looked like complete lunacy on the movie screen, b...

There are movies you remember because they’re masterpieces. There are movies you remember because they changed cinema. And then there are movies like Spies Like Us . You remember it because Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd are wandering around the Cold War apparently proving that the United States government will hand anybody a classified assignment if the comedy demands it. Directed by John Landis, the 1985 spy comedy teams Chase with Aykroyd as Emmett Fitz-Hume and Austin Millbarge, a pair of thoroughly unprepared government employees who find themselves being used as expendable decoys. [en.wikipedia.org] , [imdb.com] 🕵️ With Spies Like These... The joke is wonderfully simple. Take two guys who probably shouldn't be trusted with the office coffee machine. Send them on a secret mission. Point them toward the Soviet Union. And hope civilization survives. That puts Spies Like Us squarely in the grand tradition of the Cold War comedy, where generals are suspicious, bureaucrats are incom...

Some war movies focus on battles, strategy, and combat. The Monuments Men takes a different path. Directed by and starring George Clooney, the film tells the remarkable true story of a group of art experts, museum curators, architects, and historians who were sent into war-torn Europe during World War II to rescue priceless works of art from Nazi theft. And yes, the story is very real. The movie is based on the actual Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives program, often called the "Monuments Men." These individuals worked alongside Allied forces to locate and protect stolen artwork and cultural treasures during and after the war. Their efforts helped recover masterpieces by artists such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Michelangelo, and countless others that might have been lost forever. What makes The Monuments Men interesting is that it doesn't feel like a modern war film. Instead, it often plays like a 1940s or early 1950s World War II movie. Rather than emphasizing gritty realis...

  When Hollywood drifted into the South Seas, it found danger, romance, and moral reckoning — all wrapped in humid air and moonlit intrigue. Dangerous Paradise (1930) , directed by William A. Wellman , is one of those early talkies that feels half‑dream, half‑confession — a tropical noir before the term existed.
