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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

Sigh Oh my. Where to begin. At the beginning … this really isn’t the worst movie in the world, despite what reviewers all over that ninnernets would have you believe. It’s no good. I’ll give them that, but it’s definitely not the worst in the world. But that’s cool ‘cause it wasn’t released in theaters. [...]
So just one review ago, I declared my disdain for adaptations of Stephen King’s novels (by and large). However, his shorter works seem to make for better movies. “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption” (little known fact: this is the novella that spawned Frank Darabont’s masterpiece, The Shawshank Redemption), weighing in at just over 100 pages [...]
So. Imagine you’ve reached the climax (heh) of a the novel you’re reading, and the supernatural, demon bad-guy is confronted by the local law enforcement officer, and this cop opens up a can of peanuts in the demon’s face. But stay with me though. Because it’s not even a can of peanuts. It’s one of [...]
You know, driving is one of my all time favorite things to do. I sit in the air conditioned comfy seat, and rock out to my favorite tunes. It’s awesome. But, as much as I love it, sometimes I space out, and lose track of what’s going on. And maybe I drift a little. Nothing [...]
Ok, so we’ve been running this little SLEEPER CELL section of the Mediabreach for going on eight months now, so it’s probably a little late for an introduction. Still, here I am. Hello, my name is Zack, and I love movies. (Everybody, let’s welcome Zack to the group. Group response (smiling, but not too excited): [...]
Volume two of our musical theater sleepers takes us into darker territory. Obviously, Sweeney Todd isn’t really a sleeper since most people at least know the basic story: dude returns from his banishment to Botany Bay (and beyond) to find that his wife has died and his daughter adopted by said dude’s evil nemesis. Dude [...]
Now I know what you’re thinkin. You saw the title “Candide” and thought, “He’s not really going to talk about eighteenth century French literature is he?? Vous misez ton cul I am. Recorded live from Avery Fisher Hall at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City, New York. It’s here we [...]
As much as we’d sometimes like to believe it, no first time feature length motion picture director just up and makes a movie for the first time ever and churns out work that can be compared to the great movies of all time, such as Reservoir Dogs or The Shawshank Redemption. It just doesn’t happen. [...]
Welcome to the third installment of the movies you missed because they went straight to DVD, but you didn’t know it, and you should be fine with it. This one is a drama. See, the first one Ink was fantasy. Then Jack Brooks was horror. Next week will probably be a comedy. But why plan [...]
