It's here! For @screenrant I set the record straight on House Party's origins and do a deep dive into the greatest dance-off of all time! screenrant.com/house-party-a…

Unearthed video: Bill Clinton praises the 2007 University of Michigan senior speaker, Abdul El-Sayed, on his commencement speech
"I don't want to embarrass your senior speaker. But I wish every person in the world who believes that we are fated to have a clash of civilizations and cannot reach across the religious divides could've heard you speak today. I just wish every person in the world could've heard you speak today."
Despite my love for '70s movies about fugitives in fast cars who become folk heroes, I was not a fan of "The Mongoose." Please check out my review!

It brings me no joy to report that I did not like this holiday horror film.

A toast to GALECA member Todd Gilchrist!
Thanks very much to the @LAPressClub for my nomination for my Lucy Liu career profile, from my time at Screenrant. Working there was a difficult experience but I'm proud of the work I did and I'm grateful for even the small recognition.

For @FANGORIA, I spoke with Frank LaLoggia about LADY IN WHITE, a film that traumatized me as a kid. The movie holds up like gangbusters and has never looked better thanks to @VinegarSyndrome. Check out our conversation! fangoria.com/lady-in-white-i…
I wasn't sure if the embargo lifted yet but I saw and reviewed Clayface for @FANGORIA. Its fish-nor-fowl approach to horror and superheroes leaves the whole thing flat, except for the many other better movies it borrows from. Check out my review: fangoria.com/review-clayface…
For @TheWrap, I reviewed ALI G: WHO IZ I? For better or worse the film focuses directly on all of the stuff that has prompted criticism and boycotts. But the bigger problem is it's not funny. At all. thewrap.com/creative-content…

Virtually every university across North Carolina has lost its early voting site. This is a coordinated assault on youth & minority turnout.
Kal Penn does his best to inject some gravitas into the story of Anna Nicole Smith's physician, but Thane Economou's circuslike approach (and a cartoonish performance by Abbie Cornish as Smith) derails his efforts.

It's DEVILS Day and if you live anywhere near these theatrical engagements, you need to see it with a crowd. @jessicakiang — like Vanessa Redgrave, caught up in the rapture — has our review, a gorgeous piece of writing. latimes.com/entertainment-ar…
When’s the last time you heard the phrase “music video Director”? The overwrought style of this creature feature is just one of the elements that simultaneously overpowers and underwhelms what should be an intriguing premise. I did not like it! Check out my review.

This movie is really terrific, as heartrending as it is visceral. Check out my review, then go see it on the big screen! fangoria.com/whalefall-revie…
Dammit @BrianDuffield you son of a bitch you can't be releasing these Whalefall scenes when I have an eight month old baby
There are things to like in this film based on a true story, but I'm not altogether they're the things the filmmakers intended. My review for @Variety !
