With the success of Wes Craven’s Scream franchise in the late 1990s, horror was on its way to another resurgence. The renewed interest in slashers may have been short-lived, but it paved the way for other subgenres to flourish. Violence laden horror like Hostel was on the rise, and zombies rose from the dead after 28 Days […]

The state of horror in the 2000s, following the post-Scream resurgence, was one full of experimentation. Without it, we may not have seen the undeniable diversity that rose in the decade after. Boundaries were pushed and morals had changed. There was a deeper conversation waiting to happen, and horror was the avenue that many progressive […]

Action heroes come in all different shapes and sizes. Some action heroes have big muscles (Alan “Dutch” Schaefer) and elite combat skills (John Rambo).

Andy Boxall / Digital Trends Ten years ago this week, the Motorola Moto G was released, becoming one of the most influential Android phones to date. It wasn’t groundbreaking because of its features, camera, or design. What made it stand out was its low price, what you got for your money, and the fact that […]

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises, a film best remembered as an underwhelming follow-up to a genuinely masterful sequel than as a worthy entry in its own trilogy. It must be difficult to act as the next chapter to what is, objectively speaking, the best superhero film in […]

Top Gun: Maverick may have cemented Tom Cruise’s return to the top echelon of the Hollywood ranks last year, but that film is far from the only impeccably made blockbuster that Cruise has worked on in recent years. As a matter of fact, Cruise has been on a bit of a hot streak for well […]
