A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas – Movie Review
I was crazy excited for this movie to come out. I don’t smoke weed but it doesn’t stop me from enjoying the hell out of the films. This one is set Christmas time and is in 3D (captain obvious here). We at FleshEatingZipper hate 3D movies with a passion but since this movie doesn’t look like it’s ever going to be no 3D in my town so I took one for the team. Read the rest of this article…
Tower Heist – Movie Review – A Fun, Suspense-Free Theft (Spoilers Included!)
I’m a sucker for a good heist flick. I like the characters, each bringing their particular set of skills to a unique jigsaw puzzle. The planning. The execution. The screw-ups. The recoveries. On and on. I love an elaborately set trap. In many ways, Tower Heist is similar to Soderbergh’s Ocean’s films of the past decade in that they lack much suspense and work well largely because of the actors on board. However, there are two big differences: the Ocean’s films are much more exquisitely crafted than this outing while Soderbergh’s classy, high-end direction is unforgettable, atthe end of the day, no one will remember who Brett Ratner was.
21 Jump Street Red Band Trailer Released, I’m Down
I don’t know why I haven’t heard about this movie until now because I kind of consider myself a cinephile. Staring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill as two new police officers that placed into a program the police department is bringing back where young looking cops go undercover to high schools to but drug dealers and stuff.

Things are getting thick, fast and I’m here to talk about it so read on!
‘Maniac’ Short Film – Cage And Kid Cudi Kill People
Hey, so just a question: does a short film following a pair of murderous thugs sicken you? Yeah? Well, then you’re obviously not up for “Maniac”, a short film in which murderous thugs kill people. I’m up for watching most anything and I do enjoy me some Cage, so watching him get his (fictional) murder on with Kid Cudi is a sight to behold; it’s right up the alley for the Grand Theft Auto generation. Oh, and Shia LaBeouf directed it? Fascinating. Review and the film itself embedded after the break!
The Walking Dead – Season 2 – Episode 3 – “Save The Last One” With Some Spoilers

How Wrong You Are: The Best Albums, 2002-2011
Okay, I was a little late to the music thing. The first album I ever bought, like an actual correlated group of songs on a shiny compact disc, was Moby’s licensed-for-everything Play, before he went back to the well to make boring downtempo for another decade. The next few years were a bit of a fluke because everything I bought was pretty awful radio rock – like Saliva’s first album or Ill Nino – and this was back when I regularly listened to radio rock (that’s how awful it was). But eventually I began to fall in love with music and began picking favorites and now that it’s been a decade, I can pick my ten favorite albums of the past ten years. Limp Bizkit’s pictured chocolate starfish and the hotdog flavored water couldn’t make the list because, sadly, it came out in 2000. Sigh.
In Living Color Returning for Two Half-Hour Specials in Spring 2012
You can do what you wanna do, In Living Color. That intro is completely burned into my memory forever. I know as a kid I watched that show like crazy, I don’t remember if I was watching reruns or what but I know I watched it! Fox announced that the show will return in the form of two half-hour specials hosted by the man himself, Keenen Ivory Wayans. Read the rest of this article…
New ‘Beavis And Butthead’ TV Review – “Werewolves of Highland”/”Crying” (Spoileriffic!)
I wasn’t old enough to appreciate (or should I say, watch) Beavis and Butthead in its original run that ended fourteen years ago, but I caught up with it when I did watch MTV (a scary time) and fell in love with its spin-off Daria. In subsequent years, I found Beavis and Butthead Do America was a bit too long of a format for the series’ crude pedestrian humor, but now Mike Judge is happy to be back and making the show, what was once MTV’s proto-South Park, and we’re here to review it for you, heh heh.
In Time – Movie Review – A Time-Thriller That’s Not In A Hurry (Spoilers Within)
I’m a sucker for movies built around cleverly complex machinations. A man has spent his entire life being the protagonist of a TV show he’s not aware he’s in. A society of vampires is running out of humans to draw blood from. A group of thieves must dive into the sleeping mind of a magnate’s son and build dreams within dreams to get deep enough to plant an idea to destroy his empire. Here, the only currency is time. As soon as you turn twenty-five, your time starts ticking away. Coffee costs minutes, cars cost years, many wake up without enough hours to make it through the day. So with time in such a crunch, why does In Time take so long to resolve?
