Melville in Cubicle Hell

Tyro film director Jonathan Parker brings "Bartleby the Scrivener" back to the future. And who better to ride shotgun than freaky, geeky Crispin Glover?

Beowulf

The irony inherent in using 21st century motion-control technology to tell a tale approximately 1,400 years old is just one of many bizarrely entertaining aspects of Beowulf.

River's Edge

Disturbing condensation of starkly youth anomie in the wake of a girl's murder, a conspiracy of boys, and the counsel of Dennis Hopper, who dances with a blow-up sex doll in the woods.

Epic Movie

The filmmakers are completely tone-deaf when it comes to the art of film parody, and their special form of sadism-as-punch-line leaves the audience in a perpetual cringe.

SXSW Film Reviews

One can safely assume that Herman Melville never imagined the title character of his dark tale "Bartleby the Scrivener" in an episode of The Drew Carey Show.

Friday the 13th Part 3

1982's Friday the 13th Part 3 holds a special place in the hearts of fans: It's schlocky and stupid, yet somehow scary, it's goofy, yet often gory, and it explains the origin of Jason's signature facewear.
