Jack Goes Home is the second time for actor Thomas Dekker to operate from the director’s chair. The film, also written by Dekker, was inspired heavily from events of his own life, and that personal touch has represented something nightmarish to the film’s metaphorical presentation. What the end result gives us is a unique and disturbing outlook into the core root of madness to angst of the broken Jack. The film follows Jack Thurlowe, a magazine editor and soon-to-be father that recently discovers his parents involved in a horrid car accident, which results in the death of his father and…

A common appreciation is the portrayal of the most notable one in the 2004 film, The Punisher, and the amount of work that Thomas Jane went into putting soul in Frank Castle and The Punisher, even coming to reprise his role on two separate occasions. Now that we’ve moved onto a new cinematic universe with Jon Bernthal as the skull-crested vigilante, many fans have…

Fans and critics alike praised his performance to a great degree that a spin-off series based on the character was announced shortly after, becoming the sixth Marvel Netflix joint program on the block.

Admittedly, there was a large consensus between critics and fans that the main baddies of Suicide Squad weren’t the biggest spotlight as opposed to the Squad themselves, but they had some pretty interesting designs. In fact, there was quite a lot of time taken to decide to final look asconcept artist Stephan Martiniere has unveiled a large variety of concept art for the characters of Enchantress, Incubus and their grotesque minions (as well as one additional one for Katana).

Now that the game has turned to Ben Affleck, who has announced what his interpretation’s will be identified as. Affleck has announced something more…
Famed Hollywood director Quentin Tarantino is apparently a massive Luke Cage fan. Despite this however, he may not be too keen on getting into the new Netflix show based on the character in the comics. Khail Anonymous of Yahoo had the chance to hear Tarantino’s statement with the show. Apparently it wasn’t anything with the writing or casting, but rather the timeframe: I might be one of the pains in their asses because I love the way the character was presented so much in the ’70s,” Tarantino admitted. “I’m not really that open to a rethinking on who he…
