King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017)

November 25, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Let’s get some magic up in this house. I’m taking off or a little break from the state and going somewhere magical, so it only makes sense to prep it with magic that’s more my speed - yeah, that’s right, swords and sorcery style hombre! This is one that I just haven’t gotten around to - maybe it was the advertising, maybe i was just being slow and lazy - never can tell.Tell you what, we’ll fix that right up tonight in a hurry - dust off your old Arthurian books, this time we take a break neck check with King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.

Hacksaw Ridge (2016)

November 18, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

So the new movie buddy had a request for a movie this week - another war one, a bit more serious this time but also a far more impressive story. The fact that it’s based on a true story really helps sell how impressive it is - and of course set in a time of greatness - even if that greatness isn’t all in the good way. Tonight we see the reason behind a man, and the impressive story to go along with what happened up on Hacksaw Ridge.

The Tomorrow War (2021)

November 11, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

It’s the day to celebrate all those soldiers who did what they had to do so we can do what we do - and of the lineup that I had, it was decided to spice things up without getting too spicy. Yep, that’s right, I found a movie that could service as commentary, action, spectacle, and do it all whilst serving as a way to salute three separate generations of vets like some sort of perfect storm. Take the old man out to dinner and thank a soldier, tonight we look at The Tomorrow War.

Free Guy (2021)

November 04, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Ever notice how some of the best video game movies are the ones about video games but not about video games? Yeah, we’ve had some real bang-up entries into the genre with some of the Mortal Kombat movies, and some other ones that are rather hotly debated as to if they are good or not. Well, this time we get a bit more meta and figure out if maybe this time the movie gets it? Is it another movie about hapless nerds destined to be forever-loners? Maybe the nerdy kids having to band together and find their inner greatness? Grab that blue shirt, it’s time to Free Guy.

Scream 3 (2000)

October 28, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

The final act is here as the end of the month draws near. Alright, it’s not quite the final act they implied when it came out - but money has a way of changing that sort of thing. For our purposes though, then end of October does end my excuse for doing horror movies, and it’s been a fun jaunt revisiting these with someone who hasn’t seen them - and getting some extra thoughts on them from an outside source at the same time. Dust off the ghost face and shine your flair, it’s time for Scream 3.

Scream 2 (1997)

October 21, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

The phone is ringing off the hook. You might want to check the caller ID before picking it, you never know who it is! I said we would continue and that’s what we are going to do gosh darn it. Most would say sequels are what kills a good horror movie, but in the fields of horror we find thinks frequently returning from the grave - so let’s see if our little ghost faced killer can keep his knife up or not, it’s time for Scream 2.

Scream (1996)

October 14, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Hitting up the classics this time! I originally had the plan to do all of these this October, but kind of went a little off track at first. Back on track now - got a three pack on sale! Yep, that means you can look forward to at least two more Scream movies before we hit the end of the month! Beware the phone call, it might be a killer waiting to make you Scream.

Stage Fright (2014)

October 07, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

I’m easing you into Octo-boo-r nice and easy with a slasher musical. Yeah, that’s right, you heard me - a slasher musical. It’s both parts slasher and musical. You want typical Disney live action if it contained about 80% more blood spray? Better get your rain poncho out of the closet then, you might get splashed! This entry also plays into the ever present fright of memory loss - who ever had “another movie he thought he did but found no trace of doing” on their bingo card better mark that one down, you’d probably be dead if it was a drinking game! Clear those pipes and stick the vibrato, tonight you try and sing your heart out before you get Stage Fright.

The Golden Child (1986)

September 30, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

So, surprisingly or not I found another movie that I thought I would have done, but in fact through all my checking I have not done. October is around the bend, so I’m still holding off on doing horror this week - but I did find a tale with magic, monsters, and what’s honestly probably a horrible take on another culture that we really didn’t care as much about back in the 80’s because everyone was having too much fun with the beats and the styles. Apologize to your Shirpa friends in advance and get ready for a classic Murphy drive, tonight we rescue The Golden Child.

The Water Man (2020)

September 23, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

It’s time to get real - October is just around the bend, and if you know me you know that means I’ll have a legitimate excuse to do nothing but horror movies regardless of how garbage or great they are - so I’m purposely avoiding doing them for the next two entries of “the weekly movie” to give people a breather in advance. I’ve also felt like I’ve been just bludgeoning people over the head with action movies as of late - so I’m aiming for something different. I had thought originally about trying to tie in to the release of Star Wars: VIsions - which unfortunately came out as a serial show as opposed to the “I now have an excuse to talk about it on the movie reviews” anthology format like Halo, Batman, or even The Matrix did when they did the same thing. So what I settled on is a story of a kid looking for a mythical figure where he’s shown holding a samurai sword on the box art, because seems pretty gnarly to me. Don’t think it’s the boy, tonight we look at The Water Man.

Snake Eyes (2021)

September 16, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Hey, you know who was my favorite GI Joe character back in the day? If you said Tunnel Rat, you were wrong. Obviously, you’ve seen the title so you know the real lead up here is me saying Snake Eyes - and you’d be right to think that! Sweet ninja guy with a cool mask, machine pistols and a katana with a romance of some hot action-hero lady? What more could any kiddo want? Well, they made a movie that’s supposed to serve as his origin story based on the GI JOE movie franchise, which escapes me as to why, but I’ll watch the crap out of it anyways, so take a vow of silence, it’s time for Snake Eyes.

Mars Attacks! (1996)

September 09, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Still playing that Aliens game, so found another nonsensical movie for the night that doesn’t really fit but at least this time it actually has aliens in it. Leave the horror behind, tonight we slap on the camp. Let’s be real, most people are gonna enjoy a comedy more than an action flick anyways right? Well, maybe tonight’s little wood-be campy sci-fi homage won’t tickle everyone’s fancy, but either way we’ll see what kind of crazy gets about when Mars Attacks!

Universal Soldier: The Return (1999)

September 02, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Here’s a movie I haven’t done yet - as a matter of fact, I don’t think I’ve done any of them yet. Meh - who needs to start at the beginning for a movie anyways? Well I mean, to be honest I have seen a lot, if not all of them, I just never did a review of any of them. Tonight that’s going to change, because I’ve been playing a lot of that Aliens game that just came out so I’m in the mood for some action movies - and since I’ve already done the movie that would best fit that one, I thought why not go on a side-line and go with the concept of state-of-the-art soldiers? Tonight, we come back to something we haven’t gone to in the first place. Tonight, we roll into Universal Soldier: The Return.

Throw Momma from the Train (1987)

August 26, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Tonight’s movie comes from a conversation I had with a coworker. I most likely would have done this a long while ago, back towards when it was first mentioned to me, but as it turns out Amazon didn’t have it as a free to watch Prime movie at the time so I kind of just put it on a list and waited. Well, after getting that Monster Hunter movie taken care of last week - and a near call with getting replaced on the docket with the new animated Witcher movie - we finally get to see just what trouble the city slick and his little penguin friend can get up to. Tonight, someone is gonna Throw Momma from the Train.

Monster Hunter: Legends of the Guild (2021)

August 19, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Said I wanted to do it, so this week we get to do it. Sure, I was excited by the visuals of that live action Monster Hunter movie - but much like the same director’s Resident Evil series it quickly felt not like the game. That made me a little sad, but the costumes and the effects work had me happy at least. Now though, Netflix drops a movie that’s just an hour long, and looks to be about on par with the games in looks - but will it be a better adaptation then just inserting some throwaway soldiers into a movie where they arguably don’t belong? Let’s find out my opinions, it’s time to watch Monster Hunter: Legends of the Guild.

Friday the 13th (1980)

August 12, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

I’ve seen the entire franchise. I’ve seen multiple entries numerous times. I’ve had numerous occasions in which to do this review and on this day I ask myself one question - again? How are there so many of these that I could swear I’ve done but I haven’t actually done? Will there ever be an end to it? Tonight we’ll look into why you probably should have listened to old Ralph when venturing out to Crystal Lake - tonight we go to the original Friday the 13th.

The Losers (2010)

August 05, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Let’s stick with some action and add in some comedy. We go from a space-based budget to a comic-based modern “budget” A-team. This easily ties into the group of “haven’t I done this before” that seems to crop up ever so often this year, so it feels like a return to all around enjoyment! Well, I suppose enjoyment is a subjective term in this instance, but let’s find out if with the selection of tonight we find ourselves the winners or The Losers.

Cosmic Sin (2021)

July 29, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Guess what’s short and has a horrible critic rating? Tonight’s movie! Yay, lets get some fart-fests in this bean-filled world of movies! I mean, I’ve been watching some pretty good to mediocre movies for a while, so it almost feels like I’ve been avoiding them instead of getting lucky, so maybe we can fix that. Now, don’t get me wrong - it can be bad as long as it’s enjoyable and I’ll be fine with it - but when you’ve got a failing by school grade rating from the common folk and a less than four percent critical rating, I expect I might hit issues. Either way, strap in and see how bad it is, tonight is Cosmic Sin.

Werewolves Within (2021)

July 22, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

Here’s something I haven’t done in a good while - a movie that’s still “in theaters’ at the moment of the Thursday ritual. Yes, I nailed it as a rental from home, because i have a projector and crap and largely don’t want to be bothered with adding a step of “going somewhere else” on a review day (probably a sort of obvious fact, but I watch all these things immediately before posting them, unless I know there’s something that’s going to keep me from getting them out on time before hand). I strayed away from it for a while, because I used the Quick Flick format for it - but tonight, we want the spices of life. A zesty meal. A hearty serving of movie based on game based on other game. We want so many levels of werewolves that are brain is itching beneath the veritably village of hair it’s grown while the moon was out. Tonight, we hope our neighbors are good to us - it’s time for Werewolves Within.

The Burrowers (2008)

July 15, 2021  /  Ken Rupracht

From the depths of the sea to the shallows of the plains. Tonight we settle for a western, but not just a normal everyday western - nah, that would be too easy. Tonight we ride into a pack of monsters that share the screen with the horrors of man. On this night, we pray for the sun - tonight we await The Burrowers.
