  • MTV Planning Dawn Of The Dead Spin-Off TV Series

    The last time George Romero's Dawn of the Dead went out for a reworking, pretty much the entire blogosphere shared my skepticism.

  • The /Filmcast: After Dark - Episode 3

    The /Filmcast: After Dark is a recording of what happens right after The /Filmcast is over, when the kids have gone to bed and the guys feel free to speak whatever is on their minds. In other words, it's the leftover and disorganized ramblings, mindfarts, and brain diarrhea from The /Filmcast, all in one convenient…
