I whole-heartedly adore this film. We have awesome characters and colorful performances to match, fantastic practical effects/creature design, and big belly laughs for me.

I've seen this flick a million times, and it never gets old. The replay value is insane.

Starring: Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Michael Gross, and Reba McEntire

Directed by: Ron Underwood

Suggested MPAA Rating: Rated PG-13 for creature violence and gore, and for language

As a big fan of the first film, I've always considered Aftershocks to be a super underrated sequel. Fred Ward is still a blast to watch as Earl Bassett, and Michael Gross is always a bunch of fun as Burt Gummer.

The practical effects for the graboids are delightful, and the gore pushes the PG-13 rating. Highly recommend!

Starring: Fred Ward, Michael Gross, Christopher Gartin, & Helen Shaver

Directed by: S.S. Wilson

Rated PG-13 for sci-fi creature violence and gore

An excellent crime-drama that's led by a magnificent Denzel at his absolute A-game. We also have a fantastic Ethan Hawke performance, a solid supporting cast, and a great soundtrack.

I have Training Day in my personal top 5 movies of all-time.

Starring: Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, and Scott Glenn

Directed by: Antoine Fuqua

Rated R for strong brutal violence, pervasive language, drug content and brief nudity

FRO talks about why Day of the Dead (1985) is his personal favorite of all time on the @FreakyTalezPodcast

Denzel puts in a top 5 performance as John Creasy, and Dakota Fanning has one of my favorite performances from a child actor. As much as I love/hate the ending, it still gives me a gut punch.

I highly recommend Man on Fire (2004). One of my favorites.

Starring: Denzel Washington, Dakota Fanning, Radha Mitchell, and Christopher Walken Directed by: Tony Scott

Rated R for language and strong violence

(strong language advised)

Eastwood puts in a great performance as Walt, and does a solid job as the director. The dialogue is snappy, energetic, and it makes me crack a rib with every watch.

I can understand folks being offended by the racial humor and themes, but I love this film, whole-heartedly.

Starring: Clint Eastwood, Bee Vang, and Ahney Her

Directed by: Clint Eastwood

Rated R for language throughout, and some violence

One of my favorite games of all time! As much I love the second installment more, the OG will always have a special place with me.

A knock-it-out the park performance from James Cagney, who plays the maniacal gangster Cody Jarrett.
