Movie Reviews and Previews Aaron Taylor-Johnson has a busy December When the first trailer for Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu came out, I said I hoped it would play TIFF, as did two of Eggers’ previous films.

Movie Reviews and Previews Finally, The Crow The Crow is one of the 90s’ genuine cult classics, and for the last 16 years, a remake has been stuck in development hell, to the extent that this became an “I’ll believe it when I see it” movie. Well, I believe it, because yesterday a trailer for a By Sarah • Mar 15, 2024 12:02 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The (Horny) Crow This year marks the 30th anniversary of the release of The Crow, starring Brandon Lee. It was Brandon’s breakthrough role, and he was expected to go on to be a big star coming out of this film. Tragically that was not to be as he was killed on set. By Lainey • Feb 28, 2024 03:08 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Bill Skarsgard is the latest to tackle The Crow Over the last decade, several movies have escaped development hell, for better or worse.

Movie Reviews and Previews Robert Pattinson brings chaos to Tom Holland At this point, I will watch anything Robert Pattinson is in, just to see whatever bonkers performance he’s giving that day of the week. Over his decade-plus of fame, Pattinson has turned into one of the most reliably strange performers in film—some actors try VERY HARD to sell By Sarah • Aug 14, 2020 11:00 am

Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF Review: Assassination Nation Sam Levinson’s bonkers satire, Assassination Nation, stumbles into interesting, as is happening lately, by almost having something to say about Trump’s America. Movies take too long to make for it to really be about that, but Assassination Nation winds up there all the same, a festival of violence By Sarah • Sep 12, 2018 03:22 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Pennywise is not hot, you sickos Here are photos from the set of It: Chapter 2, showing Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise the Clown.

Quiveration Hot Pennywise at Comic-Con Bill Skarsgard, aka Hot Pennywise, brought his particular brand of creepy-hot to Comic-Con yesterday to promote Assassination Nation. Here he is, tall and handsome, not dressed like a murdering demon clown, with those ludicrous cheekbones everywhere. Are you into Bill Skarsgard? I am 100% on board. He’s my favorite By Sarah • Jul 20, 2018 11:19 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Bill Skarsgård and a bunch of kids in It It lets you know what kind of movie it is right off the bat, when Pennywise the Clown (Bill Skarsgård) bites the arm off a little kid before yanking him into a sewer.

Siblings Alexander Skarsgard > Justin Timberlake Alexander Skarsgard supported his brother, Bill, at the It premiere last night. At one point, while Bill was posing, Alex was goofing behind his back.
