The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Review

This film has become the official definition of "cult movie," so much so that audience watching the film is just as important as what's happening onscreen. That said, seeing it at home on TV is still a lot of fun. It's the story of Janet (Susan Sarandon) and Brad (Barry Bostwick), a pair of naive newlyweds whose car, true old-dark-house formula, breaks down in a sudden rainstorm. They're forced to take refuge in the castle of that sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania, Dr. Frank N. Furter (Tim Curry). Read the complete review for The Rocky Horror Picture Show

The Book of Daniel The mob won't... | Today's News: Our Take | 1/22/2006
The Book of DanielThe mob won't give Daniel back the church funds unless he lets their favorite construction company — the Vaporellis — build the St. Barnabas school. I'd say that entitles Reverend Webster to three Vicodins, but then, I'm not Jesus (who notes that three pills are "a new record" for our beleaguered priest). "I don't think this will kill me," Daniel tells the Savior. However, his confusing the Vaporelli brothers with a gay couple just might do him in — though that Vaporelli on the left did dress nicely. Somehow, it didn't surprise me that Yoda the computer genius turned out to be an obnoxious adolescent letch, nor was I bowled over that Jessie ran off with Victoria's jewelry. It's this overabundance of whimsy that's turning this potentially p read more

Monk After weeks of the USA Network... | Today's News: Our Take | 1/17/2006
MonkAfter weeks of the USA Network (over)promoting the new season of Monk, the anal-retentive gumshoe is back and as in need of meds as ever. Tony Shalhoub continues to mine the hilarious quirks of his character, particularly during the opening scene when he compares the work of different shirt inspectors while shopping for clothes. (Monk says No. 8 is his "soul mate." He once wrote her a fan letter.) But what seems to be an extraneous gag quickly segues into the night's mystery. Ah, the Monk mysteries. Even a 5-year-old can solve them with just one peek at the episode's roster of guest stars. Hmmm, let's see, No-Name Actor No. 1, 2, 3... aha!
