Blu-ray Review: Wonder Woman 1984
Less superhero and more super-silly, director Patty Jenkins (who once had the gall to suggest her first 'Wonder Woman' feature was an "art film") has crafted a monument to inconsequentiality with this overstuffed DC Comics sequel.
DVD Review: The Reckoning - (2020)
Charlotte Kirk is the star and coscreenwriter of this gritty historical horror-drama, directed by Neil Marshall. This witchhunt-driven story is set in Great Plague-era England.

Reissued gems from two acts plus new music from two artists who haven't been heard from in many years.
Blu-ray Review: Breaking News in Yuba County
A bunch of stars populate this new comedy, led by the always-reliable Allison Janney. But Warner Brothers has ultimately dropped a real turkey with this misguided suburban crime caper.
Music Reviews & More: Hope Dunbar, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Wild & Blue, the Dinallos, and Allen Ginsberg
Noteworthy new music from three acts, plus a 1976 Lynyrd Skynyrd concert and Allen Ginsberg's first recorded reading of "Howl."
DVD Review: Don't Tell a Soul
An effective dramatic turn by Rainn Wilson highlights this tense, twisty psychological thriller. This received a limited theatrical run in 2020 and it now deserves to find a much larger audience on home video.

Blu-ray Review: Vanguard - (2020)
It is hard to follow the plot, but this Jackie Chan actioner has enough fun moments to make it effective as a "background" movie. In other words, put it on while you're working on other things and just want something buzzing away in the background.
Blu-ray Review: Wrong Turn - (2021)
A brand-new beginning for the venerable horror series. You may be thinking, ANOTHER "Wrong Turn?" But this one is probably quite a bit different than you were expecting.
