Legend of Superman – Covid Response (2020): A Film by Frank Palangi – Superhero Short Film Review
By Geno McGahee I’m not a superhero guy, outside of the Incredible Hulk TV series, but most superhero/comic book guys seem to shit on the idea of a muscular guy painted from head to toe in green. I’m for it. There’s not enough of it. I always gravitate to DC […]

Passenger 57 (1992) – Wesley Snipes DIE HARD-INSPIRED ACTION FILM

By Geno McGahee In 1987, movie history was made with the Arnold Schwarzenegger sci-fi/action hit “PREDATOR.” The mix of Arnie’s physicality and delivery with a huge alien hunter was a can’t miss and it made a lot of money at the box office. On less than a 20 million dollar […]

Cobra (1986) – Sylvester Stallone ACTION MOVIE REVIEW
