The Lost City: How Sandra Bullock and Daniel Radcliffe Escaped into the Jungle

New DVD release
The Lost City began filming in the jungles of the Dominican Republic in May 2021. That is less than a year ago. But considering how different the world was even 10 months back, it may as well have been a lifetime for star, producer, and overall Lost City champion, Sandra Bullock. It’s easy to forget now, but the vaccine rollout was still in its early fitful days during the movie’s pre-production phase, and until those cameras rolled the process was its own desperate escape. “You just shot me back trying to find a vaccine,” Bullock says when we mention the…

How Marvel’s Nova Could Reshape the MCU

New DVD release
The man called Nova is finally headed to the MCU. Deadline has announced that Moon Knight writer Sabir Pirzada will be shepherding the character into the MCU. At this point, we don’t know if Nova will be a series or a movie, but excitement is already building. Moviegoers have already received a glimpse of Nova in Guardians of the Galaxy, in which the Nova Corps played an important role. For comic book fans, the Nova Corps looks quite different. As in the movies, the Nova Corps is an intergalactic peace-keeping group, with members from all over the galaxy. But instead of flying around in cool…

The Batman Deleted Scene Reveals Joker in Arkham

New DVD release
This article contains THE BATMAN spoilers. We have a spoiler-free review here. The Batman has given fans plenty to talk about. But the most pressing topic of conversation may very well be Barry Keoghan’s character, billed in the credits as “Unnamed Arkham Inmate.” Shown only in a brief scene in Arkham Asylum, Keoghan’s character forges a bond with the Riddler (Paul Dano), suggesting that the two of them could be friends. And if there was any doubt about who this prisoner could be, all questions were drowned out by the sound of his blood-curling laugh. It was the Joker, returning again to be…

Steven Spielberg Should Reconsider Not Directing Another Musical

New DVD release
When someone has just returned to this mortal plane after scaling Mt. Everest, it is perhaps premature to ask them which vast rock they would like to climb next. Yet that’s exactly what we feel obliged to do following news over the weekend that Steven Spielberg—Hollywood’s own veritable Edmund Hillary—is done with musicals after West Side Story. The revelation came via Variety, which reported about Spielberg attending the PGA Awards Breakfast on Saturday. There, the director and producer had nothing but lovely things to say about his experience of adapting West Side Story to the screen. His efforts have resulted…

Everything Everywhere Takes the Multiverse ‘Further Than It Should Go’

New DVD release
Michelle Yeoh wanted to meet the Daniels as soon as possible. Having just finished reading the script for the new and bizarre multiverse epic—a movie which initially named its universe-hopping heroine “Michelle Yeoh”—the actual Yeoh needed to see with her own eyes the writing-directing duo who could come up with something so intriguing (and perhaps a wee bit presumptuous). When they finally sat face-to-face, according to the Everything Everywhere All at Once directors, Yeoh had one immediate question: What did you write?! “I had no idea what the hell it was about,” Yeoh laughs now when we catch up at…

When The Godfather Changed Hollywood Forever

New DVD release
On March 24, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the premiere of The Godfather. It was nominated for 11 Oscars, won three, and changed cinema forever. The film, which never uses the word “mafia” or the phrase “cosa nostra,” is renowned as the premiere gangster film of all time, and is more than occasionally called the greatest movie of all time. Yet its follow-up, The Godfather, Part II, is often ranked higher. This has more to do with filmmaking than with crime. Paramount Pictures released a 4K Ultra HD edition of The Godfather Trilogy on March 22. The scope of…

Oscars 2022 Movies: Where to Watch and Stream the Best Picture Nominees

New DVD release
The 94th Academy Awards are coming later than usual this year, but the 2022 ceremony will finally air this weekend, March 27 on ABC. This year’s Oscars presentation has been a lightning rod for conversation due to controversial changes to its telecast and a seemingly unpredictable Best Picture race. It’s conceivable that any of the 10 films in contention could walk away with the honor, with awards shows earlier in the season unable to agree on a clear frontrunner. If you’re looking to get caught up with the films nominated this year, or simply want to revisit your favorites, we’ve…

Deep Water: Grace Jenkins’ Trixie Is the True Evil Genius

New DVD release
The breakout star of Adrian Lyne’s “erotic” thriller is a six-year-old girl who packs in more charisma than its leads put together. Grace Jenkins has just two IMDb credits to her name – Deep Water and a short called The New Nanny – but it’s safe to say she absolutely stole the show in a movie which also stars Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas. No mean feat. Jenkins is adorable and she’s very funny. But we can’t help but think there is another hidden reading to Trixie’s part in the story should you choose to examine it. Ostensibly, Deep…

Master and the Horror Hidden in ‘Safe Spaces’

New DVD release
Inspiration can be incidental. For filmmaker Mariama Diallo, the writer and director of the new allegorical horror movie, Master, it could be described as faintly insidious. That’s at least one way to think about the larger social implications of her chance encounter with an old professor from her days at Yale University. “I ran into my master out on the streets of New York a few years after I graduated,” Diallo explains now, referring to how faculty who live in the residential dormitories with Yale undergraduates are called ‘masters’ of their charges. “And I greeted him the way I always…

Best J-Horror Movies to Watch Before Playing Ghostwire: Tokyo

New DVD release
Ghostwire: Tokyo isn’t just developer Tango Gameworks’ long-awaited return to the horror genre after 2017’s underrated The Evil Within 2; it’s a pretty great excuse to check out some of the greatest J-horror movies ever made. While Japanese horror films enjoyed a global “boom period” in the late ’90s and early 2000s (and we’ll certainly be talking about some of the movies from that era very shortly), some of the best horror movies of the last 70+ years are J-Horror films. The long history of Japanese horror movies includes quite a few films that truly challenged viewers just as they…

Everything Everywhere Almost Starred Michelle Yeoh as Herself

New DVD release
The logline for Everything Everywhere All at Once, which opens the SXSW Film Festival, describes the movie as “a hilarious and big-hearted sci-fi action adventure about an exhausted Chinese American woman (Michelle Yeoh) who can’t seem to finish her taxes.” That’s being modest. Directors-writers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, billed collectively as “the Daniels” (Swiss Army Man), have fashioned a movie that, yes, is about a Chinese American woman trying to get her taxes done—as well as keep her laundromat business afloat and hold her family together. Yet the effort to do so takes her on a dizzying journey through…

SXSW Film Festival 2022 Round-Up

New DVD release
Barely over two years ago, the Den of Geek staff was mere days away from heading to Austin when the inevitable happened: SXSW and all its strange and glorious intersections of film, music, technology, games, and more was canceled due to the then only dawning COVID-19 pandemic. A virtual alternative eventually went forward some months later, and there was a virtual SXSW in 2021 as well, but to concede things haven’t been the same in Austin is an understatement. Which is perhaps why nearly every face, and every person we spoke with, over the last several weeks in the Texas…

Deep Water: The Wildest Thriller Movies to Watch Next

New DVD release
The Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas-starring Deep Water definitely feels like a throwback to a different time – one that specifically hit its peak before erotic entertainment was easy to access online. Erotic thrillers used to be a dime a dozen in the 80s and 90s, and they would often make a significant amount of cash at the box office, as audiences filled seats upon the mere suggestion that they would get to see notable movie stars doing salacious things to each other onscreen. But this type of project is now a very rare event in the mid-budget arena,…

Deep Water Ending Explained and Differences From the Book

New DVD release
This Deep Water article contains spoilers. Ben Affleck! Ana de Armas! Based on a book by Patricia Highsmith (who wrote The Talented Mr. Ripley and Strangers on a Train)! The first film in 20 years from the master of marital strife thrillers, Adrian Lyne (who made Fatal Attraction and Indecent Proposal)! Deep Water should really have been a steamy romp, but instead it’s a bit of a wet fish. But wet fish can be fun too, and Deep Water at least contains twists, murders, and a “huh” ending (which is a bit different from the one in the novel –…

X: Ti West Finds Link Between Horror and Porn

New DVD release
It’s been almost a decade since Ti West last helmed a feature-length horror movie, which makes his return to the SXSW Film Festival in 2022 special. It was at the same fest that he premiered his first film in the genre, The Roost, in 2005, launching what would be a string of seven chillers that included more than a few cult classics: The House of the Devil (2009), The Innkeepers (2011), V/H/S (2012). But nine years is a long time to be out of a game. And in that interim, horror has changed and changed again, earning more critical acclaim…

Windfall Is the Latest Netflix Movie You Wish You Could Forget

New DVD release
Is this Bad Movie Week at all the big streaming platforms? We haven’t checked in with Prime Video or HBO Max yet, but after struggling through Hulu’s Deep Water a few days ago we now find ourselves faced with this week’s soon-to-be-forgotten Netflix offering, Windfall. Windfall was directed by Charlie McDowell, who gave us the interesting, quirky, and eerie The One I Love a few years back and the numbingly dull The Discovery after that. Windfall — which needed four writers to come up with the story and screenplay for this 86-minute affair, including McDowell himself and Seven scribe Andrew…

Spider-Man: No Way Home Cast – Where Will They Go Next?

New DVD release
This article contains some spoilers for SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon have just made one of the highest-grossing movies of all time! What are they going to do next? Well, the answer probably isn’t “Go to Disneyland,” because Disney has likely already brought their biggest money-makers to the happiest place on earth. But the talents behind 2021’s most popular movie Spider-Man: No Way Home certainly have a lot of good work ahead of them!

Why Pink Flamingos Remains the Gross-Out Comedy Standard

New DVD release
TW: This article contains references to fictional depictions of sexual assault and animal cruelty that some readers may find disturbing. Social commentary in motion pictures implies high art. Pink Flamingos, which premiered on a single screen in a rented theater in Baltimore 50 years ago, is an antisocial commentary. It goes in the other direction. Written, directed, produced, shot, edited, and narrated by counterculture icon John Waters, the film features singing assholes, chicken-crushing sexcapades, and dog-doo finger foods. It changed movies forever. Pink Flamingos was the first of Waters’ “Trash Trilogy,” which would go on to include Female Trouble (1974)…

Morbius: Jared Leto’s Method Acting Worried Co-star

New DVD release
Jared Leto’s been at it again. The actor developed a reputation for extreme method acting while playing the Joker in 2016’s Suicide Squad. As was widely reported at the time, Leto harassed castmates to become the clown prince of crime, giving Margot Robbie a dead rat and showing others a bullet-riddled pig corpse. So when Leto recently described his process for playing the titular role in Morbius, readers surely raised an eyebrow. The vampiric anti-hero first appeared in 1971’s Amazing Spider-Man #101, in a story written by Gil Kane and penciled by Gil Kane. Dr. Michael Morbius is a brilliant…
