Halloween II vs. Halloween 2018 – ScreenHub Entertainment

Since its release, David Gordon Green’s Halloween sequel has earned critical acclaim for being perhaps the best follow up to John Carpenter’s 1978 original. For the longest time, that title was held by Rick Rosenthal’s Halloween II, the highly successful 1981 follow up that took place on the same night as the original. Halloween II continues the saga of the 1978 film. Picking up moments … Continue reading Halloween II vs. Halloween 2018 – ScreenHub Entertainment

How Netflix’s ‘The Dark Crystal’ Improves on Henson’s Film – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is quickly becoming the latest streaming blockbuster on Netflix. Since its release, the Henson Company helmed dark fantasy has garnered almost universal acclaim by both new fans, and old admirers of the 1982 film that spawned it.

A Very Spoilery Review For ‘Once Upon A Time In…Hollywood’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Quentin Tarantino’s 9th film has proven that the director still has the imaginative energy that continues to make him one of Hollywood’s hottest talents. It also manages to be perhaps his most sentimental, low key, and perhaps even his most outrageous film to date. In case the title didn’t make it evident, we’re going to be entering spoiler territory. So without further delay, let’s discuss … Continue reading A Very Spoilery Review For ‘Once Upon A Time In…Hollywood’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Midsommar’ Is Two Hours of Dread – ScreenHub Entertainment

Ari Aster is an unusual director. Many people consider him a horror director, but I disagree. While most horror films are overt in their attacks on an audience, Aster takes a more subtle approach that borders on psychological torture. In this regard, Midsommar is one of the most overbearing and uncomfortable films I’ve seen in recent years, so much that it’s hard to tell whether … Continue reading ‘Midsommar’ Is Two Hours of Dread – ScreenHub Entertainment

How ‘Stranger Things’ Has Changed – ScreenHub Entertainment

Though Stranger Things 3 continues to enjoy the warm critical reception of its predecessors, I couldn’t help but notice some stark changes from the show that captured my imagination back in 2016. While the original show was a superb blend of science fiction and horror, Stranger Things 3 has put a far greater emphasis on comedy at the expense of many of the scares. But … Continue reading How ‘Stranger Things’ Has Changed – ScreenHub Entertainment

A Christian’s Take On ‘Good Omens’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Since its release, Good Omens has joined the ranks of many other films and tv shows that have dared to question some of faith’s most sacred ideas. I myself am a Christian, and my faith is something very near and dear to me. So what does this person of faith think of this outrageous, ludicrous piece of media that supposedly makes a mockery of some … Continue reading A Christian’s Take On ‘Good Omens’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Marcus Nelson Murders and When They See Us; Two Perspectives On A Broken System – ScreenHub Entertainment

The series follows the five from the night of the crime to their eventual exoneration some fourteen years later. … Continue reading The Marcus Nelson Murders and When They See Us; Two Perspectives On A Broken System – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘Godzilla’ And the Art of Dumb Cinema – ScreenHub Entertainment

Let’s get one thing out of the way. Godzilla: King of the Monsters is a dumb movie. It is one of the dumbest big-budget blockbusters we’ve seen all year, with over the top chaos, a weak cardboard cast of human pawns, and more cliches than the supermarket greeting card aisle. But fear not, for these flaws conspire to make an all around entertaining action extravaganza. … Continue reading ‘Godzilla’ And the Art of Dumb Cinema – ScreenHub Entertainment
