purple-rain-main-review

By: Bill Leon (Three Beers) - The other day, I paid about 17 dollars (shipping and handling included) for a live concert VHS tape of Prince & The Revolution performing in 1985, a concert where they perform every track from the Purple Rain ‘soundtrack’ album. Purple Rain makes my dick ROCK. HARD. I am a Prince fan


The Breakfast Club (1985)

The Breakfast Club movie image

By: Amelia Solomon (A Toast) - Every morning during homeroom, we were forced to listen to the class president announce the latest National Merit scholars over the PA system.  I’d then proclaim to my classmates that, “I’m thinking of trying out for a scholarship,” with special emphasis on the word “ship”.  Our beatnik photography teacher would yell


V/H/S (2012)

VHS-Main-Review

By: Andrew Ward (Three Beers) -    In the over-saturated genre of found footage films, it is hard to find an enjoyable one amongst the bunch. Today, you’re more likely to run into a snoozefest like Apollo 18 rather than an original, tense one like a Blair Witch or Paranormal Activity. Although V/H/S is not

By: Henry J. Fromage (Four Beers) -   I have a confession to make.  I actually spent the majority of my childhood without a TV.  Gasp! Right? Now look where I ended up, editing a movie review website based on rating films with beer.

By: DJ Baby Ruth* (Three Beers) -    *(I am the DJ, he is the vampire) A couple evenings ago, in my latest adventure in nothingontvso scrollthroughmycablecompany’s OnDemand serviceandlookfor theworstmovieIcanpossiblyfind, I got all the way to the “R’s” until I found something that interested me.  There were actually two movies that caught my eye: Rabid


The Color of Money (1986)

The-Color-of-Money-Main-Review

By: The Cinephiliac (Three Beers) -    It’s rare for a sequel to be as good as the original film it’s piggy backing off of, especially when that sequel comes almost decades after the original (do we have to be reminded how awful Dirty Dancing 2: Havana Nights, Staying Alive, or Caddyshack 2 were?). The


Footloose (1984)

Footloose-Main-Review

By: BabyRuth (Three Beers) - Hey, have you heard?  The remake of the 80′s classic Footloose opens in theaters this weekend! (I know you have, there’s no escaping those “This weekend, get ready to cut loose!” commercials.)  Given the task of reviewing it for this site, I decided to give the original a re-watch in
