Bat, bat come under my hat, and I'll give you a slice of bacon. And if you quake, I'll bake you a cake, if I am not mistaken.

 
Review: Another Earth (2011)

so i went into this movie in my absolute favorite way – i’d read the premise in TOTAL FILM a while back, and then heard nothing else about it until the day before it released. which isn’t my favorite – this isn’t a treatise on film promotion or advertising or anything – i love me [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Haute Tension (2003)

so maybe this is more about memory than anything else. we’re doing foreign film this year at the sleeper cell (the french horror HAUTE TENSION (anglicized: high tension) for this week), which is less impressive than it sounds considering i’ve skipped out on the last month or 2. not due to a broken wrist or [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Nochnoy Dozor (2004)

Alright – last time I mentioned that I was doing a big giant music project and that it was driving me crazy, because (and this is where I sound like an old man) all music coming out these days is terrible. Terrible. But hey, April 12 was coming around, and it was going to be [...]

 
Liberated News Chapter 1: Viva la Revolucion!

While this might all be¬†technically news I stole, I couldn’t help but feel a little guilty at admitting that I work so extremely little to put up the news for the Breach. It just feels dirty. So, in the spirit of the Sleeper Cell reboot, we’re starting over. For 2011, I felt it would behoove [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Los Cronocrimenes (2007)

It’s been roughly 15 months since I’ve been welcomed with open arms into this wonderfully potty-mouthed family here at Mediabreach.com, and things just keep getting better. It’s been awhile since I’ve taken the time to put an article together, and this seemed as good a time as any to reboot. For 2011, I’m going all [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Pandorum (2009)

I figured since I prolly wasn’t going to get out to see The Mechanic any time soon (even though I love they’re using a Quarashi song in the trailer), I might as well honor the awesomeness that is quickly taking it’s corporeal form in the shape of Ben Foster. Foster is the creepy dude in the [...]

 
Zack's Best Ten of Oh-Ten: Music Edition

So I complained my butt off in my year-ending movie list about how there was just no good product out there. Which wasn’t really true. There were a buncha good movies, but compared to the killer year that was ’09, maybe I was expecting too much. Either way, year after year, I am never let down [...]

 
Zack's Ten Best Movies of Oh-Ten

I’m gonna be honest – this year-ender is really just the 5 best movies of the year, and then 5 more I kinda liked. While there were at least 3 really really great movies to come out this year, I just couldn’t connect with the majority of box-office fodder in anno domini 2010: the year [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Running Scared (2006)

Sleeper Cell will reflect movies that perhaps you missed or have always been meaning to watch but are too much of an asshole to place into your Netflix queue.  This could be a movie from 50 years ago or a movie from last year.  Bottom line, these are choice flicks and you missed out so [...]

 
News I Stole from Magazines I Read 4: I Was a Teenage News I Stole! (now with working, better-tasting links!)

Unless it’s a Thursday night and I’m doing my best to bang out a Sleeper Cell, I generally can’t stay up too long past midnight. I’m nearing the age when that’s just not feasible anymore … which is sad, but allows me to drink caffeinated coffee regardless of the hour. So when I’m at the [...]

 
Sleeper Cell: Murder By Death (1976)

The story is classic: an eccentric multi-millionaire invites the world’s greatest detectives to his home for a weekend to solve an unsolvable crime. The one who gets it right, gets a million dollars. It‚Äôs been a horror/mystery staple since the beginning of horror and mystery. And playwright Neil Simon wrote Murder by Death as a [...]

 
News: Don't Be Afraid of the Dark UPDATE

It’s still a few more months until Guillermo del Toro’s production remake of the 1973 horror film Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (directed by first timer Troy Nixey) hits the theaters, BUT, I just read this quote, and I got excited all over again! “It‚Äôs hard-hitting. It‚Äôs scary, and the ending hits you like [...]

 
Zack's Odyssey - Chapter 1: Caligari / Jekyll and Hyde

Zack’s Odyssey Chapter 1 Where we are introduced to a new kind of art-form and where no one is let off the hook. So I’ve heard before from creative peoples that if you want to be happy with what you’re doing, you have to create for yourself and not for anyone else. Which is an [...]

 
News I Stole from Magazines I Read 3: Son of News I Stole

I figure if I just wear a fedora with a “PRESS” card in the band, I can get into at least a few screenings. Right? Until then, I’ve found a better media center for to steal my news. No noisy kids or students. No chess clubs or parental invasions. Just a hot asiago pretzel and iced white mocha. Extra shot. Light ice. And a window seat with a sill. And wifely company. Exactly how theft should be.

 
Sleeper Cell: Banlieue-13 (2004)

Sleeper Cell will reflect movies that perhaps you missed or have always been meaning to watch but are too much of an asshole to place into your Netflix queue.  This could be a movie from 50 years ago or a movie from last year.  Bottom line, these are choice flicks and you missed out so [...]
