HERE – NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (DVD, Image Ten)
Review by Frank Rodasky

But the film’s use of a black man as a strong, intelligent hero during the height of America’s Civil Rights upheaval, shocking violence and stark, black …

Frank Rodasky
Guest Reviewer

When The Flight of the Conchords, a comedy music duo from New Zealand burst onto the American scene during the summer of 2007, their irreverent, deadpan humor and catchy songs made the pair an instant cult favorite.

Here or There: The Ugly Truth/He’s Just Not That Into You

Here – The Ugly Truth
Good: Very Funny. You expect Katherine Heigl to be funny after her performance in knocked up but the real laughs come from Gerard Butler. Yes, the Gerard Butler who had abs of steel in 300 and made every girl cry in P.S. I Love You. This movie bluntly hits all the problems with the male/female relationship and has you roling while it does.
Bad: The movie somewhat short and makes you want a little more. The …
