Movie Review: 'Happy Hunting'
Happy Hunting is one of the better horror movies of 2017. This Most Dangerous Game knock off takes the premise of hunting humans and puts a redneck, Mexican border setting to it and lets loose with a serious amount of blood and guts. The film reminded me a little of 2016’s brilliant horror-thriller Green Room which used a backwoods milieu to similar effect. That film is far better than Happy Hunting but that this film brings that one to mind says something about how good Happy Hunting really is.

Ranking the Felix Leiters
The James Bond fan community was saddened to learn of the death of Bernie Casey. The former NFL player-turned actor has died at the age of 78. He played the part of Felix Leiter in an unofficial James Bond film, 'Never Say Never Again', in 1983. Sean Connery talked Casey into taking the role as a black actor would make Leiter 'more memorable'. The official Bond films have since followed suit by casting Jeffrey Wright as Leiter in the first two Daniel Craig movies.

There's No River, But It Looks Windy. 'Wind River': A Review
I went to Wind River last week with very little idea of what it was actually about other than the trailer, which was pretty vague in its detail except the movie is clearly introduced as a thriller. Not knowing completely what to expect and based off a recommendation, I went last week to have some cineplex food for supper and to check out this flick. I'll try to keep the spoilers to a minimum and just comment on the most notable parts (in my opinion) of it without giving it away!

Celebrating 30 Years of The Princess Bride
The Princess Bride is one of the most rewatchable movies in history. This rich, robust, and homey comedy never ages and never falters. Rob Reiner’s direction, aside from a truly terrible film score, is unassailable in every comedy beat. Then there is the absolutely perfect casting. Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, Andre the Giant, and each of the supporting players, from Chris Sarandon as the evil Prince, Christopher Guest as the evil six-fingered henchman, and Billy Crystal’s cameo as Miracle Max, could not be better.

'It' Proves Humans Are Just as Terrifying as Killer Clowns
Clowns. Why did It have to be clowns? Okay, so maybe that isn't an original hook. However, what is original is the concept that lives in the underbelly of It, the 2017 remake of the Stephen King adaptation.

'Ghost in the Shell'
Ghost in the Shell is a cyber punk classic released in 1995. The original anime classic was based on the manga by Shirow Masamune and since its release, it has become one of the most popular anime films of all time. This year, it has had a live action remake starring Scarlett Johansson. Live action remakes have had a very bad name in the past but the Disney action remakes like the global smash hit Beauty & The Beast starring Emma Watson has started giving them a good name again.
