Oz the Great and Powerful (Extended)

In 2013 Sam Raimi decided to try something a little out of his wheelhouse of horror or comic book movies and directed a Wizard of Oz prequel focusing on the great and powerful wizard. Starring James Franco (RIP), Michelle Williams, Milla Kunis and Rachel Weisz it details his arrival into the mystical land, the origin of the Wicked Witch of the West and how the wizard has always been a dog of a bloke. Not a bad one to be honest. Anyways, thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

The Wizard of Oz (Extended)

Believe it or not The Wizard of Oz wasn’t an immediate hit when it originally released in 1939. It was only in subsequent decades that it became the pop culture phenomenon which spawned multiple spin-offs, prequels and sequels like the upcoming adaptation of the stage musical Wicked. So come with is as we journey back (more…)

Hellboy 2019 (Extended)

In 2019 Lionsgate attempted the unimaginable, a reboot of the Hellboy franchise after the much beloved Guillermo del Toro and Ron Pearlman dead cancelled trilogy. With David Harbour stepping into the role and directed (sort of) by Neil Marshall it was a critical and commercial bomb. HOWEVER as a movie some perhaps feel that it’s (more…)

Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Extended)

Despite the first Hellboy underperforming at the box office home DVD sales meant a sequel still moved forward resulting in Hellboy 2: The Golden Army in 2008. And the result is a film that’s bigger, funnier and with more golden armies than ever. With Ron Pearlman, Doug Jones and Guillermo del Toro firing on all cylinders it’s not wonder people are still asking for the sequel that will never come.

Hellboy (Extended)

In 2019 Lionsgate attempted the unimaginable, a reboot of the Hellboy franchise after the much beloved Guillermo del Toro and Ron Pearlman dead cancelled trilogy. With David Harbour stepping into the role and directed (sort of) by Neil Marshall it was a critical and commercial bomb. HOWEVER as a movie some perhaps feel that it’s been judged unfairly especially considering the mythology, creature work, world building and story.

Terminator 2: Judgement Day (Extended)

What started as a fairly simple slasher premise (robot gets sent back from the future to kill the mother of the future saviour of mankind but also she gets sent a human protector whom also happens to be the childs father) very quickly evolved into one of the biggest action movies of all time. Terminator 2: Judgement Day has both Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton return as the T-800 and Sarah Connor in a race to prevent the future war and protect John Connor from the T-1000, a mimetic polyalloy machine, aided by ground breaking abilities/special effects. Great movie. No notes

The Terminator (Extended)

The Terminator 1984 is an absolute all out sci-fi action classic. The brainchild of director James Cameron and producer Gale Anne Hurd it introduced the world to the titular Terminator as played by then rising star Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton’s Sarah Connor the mother of future savior John Connor along with Michael Biehn as Kyle Reece a soldier sent back through time to protect Sarah. Essentially an extremely well executed slasher movie it holds up extremely well some four decades later and kicked off a franchise that like the Terminator itself refuses to die.

Alien: Resurrection (Extended)

It’s time to wrap up the Ellen Ripley Alien film series with a look at what’s probably the weakest entry, Alien: Resurrection. Set two hundred years after the last and bring back Sigourney Weaver as a clone of the original Ripley it has all the thrills and chills of the best Alien movies but not as good. Sure there’s some fun stuff in it like breath verification and a basketball shot people won’t shut up about but other stuff like the xenomorphy/human hybrid just fall flat. Thanks for checking out this Caravan Of Garbage series!

Alien 3 (Extended)

Opinions of Alien 3 are certainly divided. Off the back of the terrific first two entries expectations were high for the return of Ellen Ripley, Hicks and Newt but things didn’t exactly turn out well for 66% of those characters. Taking things back to the single monster scare of Alien 1979 David Fincher does his best to elevate the story whilst constantly wrestling with the studio with what resulted in a movie he still very much hates to this day. But Alien 3 is certainly not without it’s redeeming qualities. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

Aliens (Extended)

There are very few sequels that are able to match the original or potentially surpass it. James Cameron’s Aliens is one of those films. Arriving in 1986 seven years after the last it marks the return of Sigorney Weavers Ellen Ripley whom is awoken from cryosleep 57 years after the events of Alien 1979. Great movies and good vibes. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

Alien (Extended)

Alien 1979 is a beautiful combination of sci-fi and horror which has rarely been replicated since. With Ridley Scott’s direction, HR Giger’s unique visual design, unsettling special effects, tight script and a unique exploration of both alien life and artificial intelligence it’s no wonder it went to spawn multiple sequels, prequels and spin offs. Probably too many really. Thanks for checking out or Caravan Of Garbage review

Logan (Extended)

We’re finishing off the Wolverine Trilogy with what’s considered it’s strongest entry, Logan. A reflection on aging, loss, grief, parenthood and what it means to stab a bunch of people with your clone daughter. Terrific performances all round and an incredible ending to Hugh Jackman’s tenure as the titular character. It’s a shame we’ll never see him again because he died.
