Interview with “Climate of the Hunter” Director Mickey Reece
By Adam Vaughn
January 12, 2021
Close to the theatrical premiere of director Mickey Reece’s newest film, Climate of the Hunter (which I reviewed for this site), I had the opportunity to “Zoom” with Reece to discuss the movie. Climate of the Hunter tells the story of two lifelong friends, Alma and Elizabeth, as they invite over another, long-lost friend, Wesley. Relaxing and enjoying life at a secluded vacation house in the woods, Alma starts to suspect that Wesley is ... >>
While Innovative, “Go/Don’t Go” Is Far Too Monotonous to Be Easily Remembered
By Adam Vaughn
January 11, 2021
Go/Don’t Go (Alex Knapp, 2020) 2½ out of 4 stars. Releasing at the end of the year is director Alex Knapp’s Go/Don’t Go, described by its distributors as a “slow burn thriller” of a drama film.

Though the story, itself, may be minimal, it resonates long afterwards, its implications universal beyond the borders of the small California town where the action takes place. Life is short; choose your path wisely. ... >>

The film is well directed and acted, and the journey the main characters go through is compelling and extremely memorable. The Invisible Man (Leigh Whannell): Just when you thought Universal Studios had exhausted ... >>
Matt Patti’s Top 10 Films of 2020
By Matt Patti
December 30, 2020
2020 was quite the oddball year, and unfortunately no industry was safe from the strife that the coronavirus pandemic caused. The film and theater industry were some of the worst hit, as major releases were pushed back and movie theatres shut down for a prolonged period of time. Some of my most highly-anticipated releases of the year got rescheduled, including A Quiet Place Part II, a film for which I had my reservation already scheduled for a ... >>
