Barring Buffy and MAS*H, it’s not often that a television spin-off of a hit movie actually stands on its own and succeeds in the medium. Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin, however, does a great job at creating something delightfully quirky from a supporting character in the massively popular Pitch Perfect movies. The original Peacock series takes Bumper Allen, the humorously obnoxious antagonist of the first film played by Adam Devine, and forms a funny redemption saga around him....
Horror is like a tattoo for Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks– it’s a component of their identities, a part of their flesh, and something they want to show off for all to see.

The writer/directors of the new movie Alone With You inject their filmmaking DNA into nearly every aspect of the piece, with Bennett acting in it and Brooks shooting, coloring, and co-editing....

Thomas Jane has his bloody finger on the pulse of a punished America. “You’ve got a conflict between your individual freedom and the rules of society,” Jane says, discussing his new Western film which is, of course, about America itself. “Which of those rules is worthy of upholding?” Jane is an iconoclastic figure, never really given credit for creating a great mainstream career while still remaining kind of a cool oddball and staking out a name for himself in some of the darkest, grittiest films out there....
