Eli Roth's Top 5 Freaky Flicks
Filed under: Horror », Trailers and Clips »
The Rotten Tomatoes Show often has an actor or filmmaker stop by to share a Top 5 Movies list of some sort, and next week's show has a doozy. In a special sneak preview offered to Cinematical & Horror Squad by our friends at Current TV, we now offer the clip for your perusal. But since we ARE talking about the exploitation-lovin' Eli Roth, gore-slingin' director of Cabin Fever and Hostel, AND the guy who bashes Nazis in the noggin in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, you can expect the movie clips to be a little bit ... nasty.So enjoy the sneak preview clip after the jump, and if you'd like to know a little more about Eli's #1 pick (hehe), here's a semi-recent review of it that I penned for FEARnet.com.
The Rotten Tomatoes Show's 'Ode to Chest Hair'
Filed under: Film Clips », Summer Movies »
If a girl is smart and pretty, I turn to jelly. But if she's also funny? Sheesh, let's just say it's a good thing I just bought the new edition of Stalking for Dummies. Case in point is the adorable Ms. Ellen Fox, who (along with amusing dude Brett Erlich) is the host of Current TV's The Rotten Tomatoes Show. Every week these guys (and their co-writers) come up with something unexpectedly clever and downright "LOL" funny. Last week it was this breezy little ditty about the appeal of leading man chest hair. You may have to spin the clip twice to absorb all the lyrics, but it's worth the three extra minutes.
Watch This! Premiere Episode of 'Rotten Tomatoes' TV!
Filed under: New Releases », Box Office », Trailers and Clips »
Welcome to a Saturday, which is when much of the blog-world slows down a bit and takes it easy. (Plus we don't get a whole lot of fresh movie news on most Saturdays.) So that's a perfect excuse to settle in for a 25-minute excerpt from the inaugural episode of The Rotten Tomatoes Show. Broadcast on Current TV (Thursday, 10:30), the show is hosted by Brett Erlich and Ellen Fox. No, neither of them are film critics, but they're both pretty quick, smart, and amusing. Plus neither of 'em claims to be a film critic.Not so much a traditional review show as it is a weekly hodge-podge (this blog astutely compares it to shows like Best Week Ever), The RT Show looks to be a lot of snarky fun for the movie geeks. As the hosts wander through three films (Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, Echelon Conspiracy, and Crossing Over), they solicit various opinions from comics, bloggers, and normal-joe internet readers. Plus there's a very funny diversion into the topic of video game movies, a surprisingly deep* look at "conspiracy thrillers," and a lot of random little tidbits that movie nuts will dig. (Xanadu!!?!?!)
And since I'm watching this episode as I (sloooooowly) write this piece, I can offer the following opinions: A) Wow, that was a dead-on tag-team evisceration of Crossing Over, B) Ellen Fox is really cute, C) the hosts actually offer some cinematic insights that are ... insightful. More than I can say for some other televised "film critics." Enjoy!
