I really loved Dan Stevens in the Shout! Factory flick The Ticket and I’m intrigued by the gaming, VFX elements behind Stevens’ upcoming film Kill Switch. That being said, I’m posting due to my insane appreciation for Kill Switch actress Berenice Marlohe (she starred in one of my favorite romantic dramas – 5 to 7). But enough of that, check out the trailer and plot details behind Kill Switch after the jump!

Before she was an Oscar (“Dreamgirls”) and Grammy winning (for her self-titled debut album and “The Color Purple”), Jennifer Hudson was a contestant on “American Idol.” Seeing that type of competition from both sides should put her in good stead as a new coach for Season 13 of “The Voice.”
I just finished “Get Out” this afternoon (such a great film!), and want to offer up my Blu-ray review copy of the film as well as a few extra movie items that were given out during the “Garden Party” hosted by Universal Pictures to promote its May 23rd Blu-ray release! Giveaway details are below!!

Although Amy Schumer hit it big with the first rate 2015 comedy Trainwreck, she didn’t immediately jump into another movie to capitalize on that film’s success. Refreshingly picky and looking for great material, Schumer is back with Snatched which is not your average comedy.

“The Carmichael Show’s” third season returns May 31 on NBC, and I’ll definitely be binge-watching the show on Netflix. Along with the program’s homage to Norman Lear’s seminal All in the Family, it also features Tiffany Haddish, a comedian and actress who, in the video below, drops the mic on a ton of topics. It’s an inspiring and candid several minutes – the vid’s available after the jump.
Playing this week at Laemmle’s Royal Theatre, “Panique” is a French classic where romanticism and existentialism collide like bumper cars, leaving various victims in its wake. A new digital restoration, coupled with the film’s nuanced storytelling, are just several reasons to check out this unforgettable cinematic experience.

Salma Hayek can currently be seen with Eugenio Derbez in the Ken Marino directed comedy “How To Be A Latin Lover.” The movie, which debuted at #2 at the box office, displayed an easygoing chemistry between Hayek and Eugenio Derbez (they play siblings in the film). During the HTBAL interviews I asked the actress, who’ll next be seen in the highly anticipated “Beatriz at Dinner,” about the key ingredient behind a successful collaboration.

Taylor Kinney knows how to weave an intriguing tale or two, and one reason the “Chicago Fire” star is humble and refuses to be complacent comes from an experience he learned after shooting the 2006 TV series “Fashion House.” Check out my video below, along with a partial transcript of Kinney’s story which, by the way, also deals with his mother, blowing $90,000 on sushi, a Mexican restaurant, and working one’s a** off in San Diego!!

I dig stylized thrillers, and the film noir-ish, visually arresting Detour should have received way more attention when it was released this year. I’m giving away 1 (one) Blu-ray of Detour for this week’s Deepest Dream giveaway. Details below!!
