Renegades is one of those movies that on paper has all the makings of a solid direct to DVD hit. A sizeable cast of mid-tier names that you will not only know but also have a sort of nostalgic endearment toward and that’s a great thing for you guys because they do a huge service in elevating the material and hiding any problems. A story that while not exactly breaking any new ground is just this side of madcap shenanigans so that there’s a slight air of believability to its proceedings. We are talking London gangsters, low budgets and a cast and crew that doesn’t just believe in the project but are doing...

Renegades, not to be confused with the 2017 action film of the same name, starts on a familiar enough note as retired Green Beret Major Carver getting on the wrong side of mob boss Goram. It seems Carver’s daughter Judy is a local politician and has been leading a clean up the streets campaign and making complaints about Goram’s activities. When Goram had his goons threaten her Carver got involved. And ends up beaten to death for his troubles.
When her father’s military buddies Burton, Peck, Woody, and Harris hear about it they know what needs to be done. These old soldiers are about to fight a new war on the streets of London.

Peter Strickland's Blank Narcissus (Passion of the Swamp) is now showing exclusively on Mubi in most countries starting December 7, 2022, in the series Brief Encounters.The DVD commentary is already becoming an antiquated supplement to home entertainment with the dominance of streaming, but during its brief few decades, the revelations and confessions from directors along with assorted colleagues unlocked a hitherto closed world for the majority of viewers. The director’s commentary not only functioned as a nuts-and-bolts technical and thematic dissection of what was on the screen, but more revealingly, it veered into the confessional. A lot of commentaries, especially when it comes to reissues/restorations, are recorded many years after filming, and directors no longer have to be in promotion mode, which usually involves pretending everyone got along and everything went perfectly. With the safety buffer of a few decades, mistakes that were made in any given film...

Amber Heard described her”humiliating and horrible” defamation trial against Johnny Depp, but insisted she still stood by all of her testimony regarding her ex-husband’s alleged abuse in the first part of her interview on Today.
The interview is the first Heard has given since the trail, which Depp won earlier this month (part two will air tomorrow, June 15, while an hour-long version will air on Dateline Friday, June 17). The jury effectively ruled that Heard defamed Depp in a 2018 op-ed in which she spoke about her experience with domestic abuse,...

TV didn’t always upend the horror formula; but when they would add a couple of different colors to the mix, the result was usually at least interesting. Such is the case with Deadly Messages (1985), which throws the whole palette at the screen for a very messy, but entertaining distraction.
Originally broadcast February 21st as part of The ABC Thursday Night Movie, the telefilm could not have picked a worse night to premiere: in addition to CBS’ solid lineup of Magnum, P.I. and Simon & Simon, NBC had the biggest block on the air – The Cosby Show/Family Ties/Cheers/Night Court. Oh well. For the six other people not watching that, they were left with a goofy and breezy murder mystery come Ouija board spookfest.

Before he was cast as Sakaar’s gleefully eccentric Grandmaster, Jeff Goldblum was approached about a totally different role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In anticipation of Thor: Ragnarok hitting theaters, Uproxx caught up with Marvel boss Kevin Feige, who reflected on Goldblum’s first foray into the bustling world of superhero movies. But had things panned out differently, ol’ Jeff Goldblum would have been drafted into the McU long before the God of Thunder touched down on Sakaar; in fact, the Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom star came close to playing Senator Brandt in Captain America: The First Avenger.
If that name sounds familiar, it should; Brandt was the one responsible for recruiting the young Steve Rogers in the first place, and later transformed Chris Evans’ character into the star-spangled hero we know and love. Michael Brandon wound up landing the role in 2011, and it’s fair to say that...

Four Flies on Grey Velvet, the third and best film in horror maestro Dario Argento's thematically united "Animal Trilogy," stands apart from other lurid "gialli" murder mysteries in that it's not a whodunit, but a why-happened-it. In the second scene, prog-rock drummer Roberto (Michael Brandon) accidentally kills Carlo (character actor Calisto Calisti), a mustachioed, trench-coat-clad stranger. Roberto then seeks answers from a masked blackmailer who witnessed, photographed, and maybe even orchestrated Roberto's crime. Roberto, tellingly, doesn't look for proof of his innocence, but rather context for his actions. Four Flies is stylistically characteristic of the gialli screening alongside it at "The Killer Must Kill Again," Anthology Film Archives' secon...

Buried in a recent report at Variety about Billy Crystal joining the Jim Henson Company's production of a movie called Which Witch? is an even more awesomely interesting piece of news.

This is the first time I've heard about a Labyrinth sequel. There were no other details revealed, but it's exciting to know that it's in the works.
As for the project that Crystal will be working on, it's based on a 1979 book by Eva Ibbotson, the story of which follows a wizard who holds a contest among the seven witches to determine which witch one he will marry. The actor said,

Black (born on June 30, 1937, in Chicago) was 77. Prior to Pretty Poison, Noel Black earned praise for the 18-minute short film Skaterdater (1965), the tale of a boy skateboarder who falls for a girl bike rider. Shot on the beaches of Los Angeles County, the dialogue-less Skaterdater went on to win the Palme d’Or for Best Short Film and tied with Orson Welles’ Falstaff - Chimes at Midnight for the Technical Grand Prize at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival. Besides, Skaterdater received an Academy Award nomination in the Best Short Subject, Live Action category.

The whole thing probably felt painfully familiar for Pierce Brosnan - but how did you feel about the Episodes finale and the third season overall?
More than ever before, the show seems to divide opinion. Is it a comedy-drama? Or a sitcom that's simply light on laughs? Is watching LeBlanc poke fun at himself as entertaining as ever - or has the joke worn thin?
