Silent House proves that “one-trick pony” horror movies need to be put down

Why does it always happen this way? What starts out as an genuinely interesting approach to a horror film climaxes with the thud-heard-round-the-world. Here’s the thing, when you already have one excellent gimmick (cobbling an 88-minute movie together out of 10 shots, so it feels like it’s happening in real time) you don’t need any…

Will the director of Chronicle really film Sony’s big-budget Venom movie?

With the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man reboot coming soon, it’s no wonder that Sony is sniffing around for more Spidey-related films to shoot.
