Old Hong Kong cinema has become the source of some cult classics in the modern era. It's not surprising given how the city's film industry boomed in the 1970's. All because of just how good their martial arts films are, which also coincided with (and may have been partially responsible for) the
Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League doesn't quite sound like a real movie, right? Seriously, just read back the title to yourself. It sounds more like the homemade workings of a middle schooler with dreams of writing and an imagination to match. And yet, it is an actual movie, and from Warner Bros.
Anyone with even the most remote interest in martial arts films will recognize Li Lianzi, better known by his stage name of Jet Li. This Chinese-born Singaporean started his martial arts career after three years of training under the wushu/kung fu master Wu Bin. That training quickly bore fruit in

It's been quite a long time since we've had a Star Wars movie in theaters. In the time between Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and now, we've had a revolution in entertainment in streaming and Star Wars moved from controlling the theater to a fixture in our living rooms with shows like The
We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Witch Hat Atelier has Coco and her fellow apprentice witches engage in a complex operation to escape a dragon in Ep. 5 "The Dragon's Labyrinth". Hilariously, it's an operation that basically boils down to making an impromptu dragon spa. And yet, the result is one of the most beautifully
