We toss in our two cents with this review of ALIEN: ROMULUS (2024)!
Horror and gore director Fede Álvarez (EVIL DEAD 2013) tosses his writer/director hat into the ALIEN-franchise ring with this much-awaited sequel in the long-running series. With shots (and plots) of prior ALIEN films crammed in, does Romulus have what it takes to start a new cycle (and does it deserve to?)

More on MOVIE SEQUELS: WHAT MAKES ONE GOOD?
Sequels are a risky endeavor that requires finesse. While some may argue that they seldom live up to the original, there are exceptional movie sequels that defy expectations and captivate audiences. So, what exactly makes a good movie sequel? First and foremost, a successful sequel honors the spirit and essence of its predecessor, striking a delicate balance between familiarity and originality.
One crucial element of a great movie sequel is the evolution of its characters. Audiences become invested in the lives and journeys of their favorite characters, and witnessing their growth and development is undeniably satisfying. A good sequel should deepen our understanding of these characters, revealing hidden layers and providing new challenges that test their mettle. When characters we love continue to grow emotionally and intellectually, it creates a sense of continuity and relevance.
A well-crafted movie sequel should also expand the universe it inhabits. It should offer fresh insights into the existing world while introducing stimulating new elements. Expanding the boundaries of the story and exploring uncharted territories within the established framework can breathe new life into the sequel. By doing so, it prevents the story from becoming stagnant or formulaic and allows for further exploration of compelling themes, captivating audiences all over again.
Furthermore, a good movie sequel must deliver compelling and well-crafted storytelling. The plot should build upon the foundations laid by the original, but it must also stand on its own merits. A strong storyline engages the audience, evoking emotions, and taking us on an unpredictable journey. It should maintain a satisfying balance between nostalgia and innovation, leaving room for surprises while respecting the core elements that made the original film a success.
Lastly, the perfect movie sequel understands the significance of paying homage to its predecessor while forging its own path. It should honor the source material while offering fresh perspectives and surprises. Acknowledging iconic moments or cleverly referencing the original adds an extra layer of enjoyment for dedicated fans. Striking this careful balance between familiarity and novelty is essential for a sequel to truly resonate with audiences, allowing them to relish in the joys of nostalgia while embracing new and exciting experiences.
In conclusion, a good movie sequel is an intricate tapestry woven with skillful storytelling, character growth, expanding universes, and a delicate balance of familiar and novel elements. It is an art form that requires meticulous craftsmanship and an understanding of what made the original film beloved. When a sequel successfully captures the essence of its predecessor while adding new layers of depth and innovation, it catapults itself from being a mere continuation to becoming a cherished addition to the franchise.

We give a spoopy little nod to romance in this revisiting of our discussion on the OSCAR-WINNING film GHOST (1990) and the little-talked-about follow-up to TEEN WOLF, TEEN WITCH (1989)! In the first flick, we have legends like WHOOPI GOLDBERG, PATRICK SWAYZE, and DEMI MOORE challenging the barriers of death, and in the second, we have ROBYN LIVELY, DICK SARGENT, and ZELDA RUBINSTEIN wreaking high-school havoc with 80's style witchcraft!

We explore our bodies in part 2 of our "SEX EDUCATION WITH EMILY/EMMA STONE" double-feature!
We talk POOR THINGS (2003), the film where Ms. Stone's character masturb8tes with an apple! Yes, it's weird, but what would you expect from the director of 2017's THE KILLING OF A SACRED DEER? EMILY STONE (she prefers we call her that rather than EMMA, and she asked nice!) It's a subversive imagining of the already subversive FRANKENSTEIN, and you know what? We dig it!

In honor of actor, LGBTQIA+ advocate, and poet VINCENT CALVARESE—a member of the CULT AND CLASSIC FILMS family—we are rebroadcasting a favorite, joyous episode: our “VIDEO GAME FAN FILM” pairing featuring the famed THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: HERO OF TIME (2009) and the lesser known and larger budgeted MEGAMAN (2010)! Sick of not having a film adaptation of the classic games we know and love? Well, these filmmaking fans promise to fill the void (and operate with a razor-thin budget!)
It's a revisiting of "Attack of the Fan Films," this week on CULT and CLASSIC Films Podcast!

More on THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: HERO OF TIME (2009):
"Hero of Time" is a remarkable fan film that takes inspiration from the legendary video game series "The Legend of Zelda" by Nintendo. Released in 2009, this independently produced film captures the essence of the beloved franchise and brings it to life in a new and captivating way. The story follows the adventures of a young hero named Link, portrayed by actor Adam Boyes. Set in the world of Hyrule, Link embarks on a quest to rescue Princess Zelda, played by actress Hannah Fierman, from the clutches of the evil Ganondorf, portrayed by Kody Sabourin. Along the way, Link encounters various allies and enemies, as he learns to wield the power of the Triforce and becomes the hero of legend.
Directed by Joerg Sprave, "Hero of Time" showcases impressive production quality considering its fan-made origins. The film expertly recreates the enchanting landscapes and iconic settings from the original video games. The attention to detail in the costumes, props, and practical effects pays homage to the source material while adding a unique cinematic flair.
The performances in "Hero of Time" are commendable, with Adam Boyes embodying the quiet determination and bravery of Link. Hannah Fierman's portrayal of Princess Zelda is both strong and compassionate, providing a compelling counterpart to Link's heroism. Kody Sabourin delivers a suitably menacing performance as Ganondorf, capturing his villainous essence with flair and intensity. What truly sets "Hero of Time" apart is its ability to evoke the spirit of "The Legend of Zelda" series. The film seamlessly integrates elements from the games, such as iconic music, sound effects, and familiar items like the Master Sword and the Hylian Shield. Additionally, the film skillfully incorporates key themes from the franchise, including the concept of destiny, the power of friendship, and the triumph of good over evil.
Despite its limited budget, "Hero of Time" manages to captivate fans of "The Legend of Zelda" and engage newcomers to the franchise. Its ambitious storytelling, combined with the dedication of its cast and crew, results in a fan film that is a loving tribute to the source material. "Hero of Time" serves not only as an enjoyable cinematic experience but also as a celebration of the enduring...

We get hot and heavy with part 1 of our "SEX EDUCATION WITH EMILY/EMMA STONE" double-feature!
EMILY STONE (she prefers we call her that rather than EMMA, and she asked nice!) stars in this teen comedy with wit and stars-a-plenty. When a little white lie has the whole school thinking quiet girl-next-door Olive is a prostitute, Olive takes a stand against the double standard. However, when the pressure of the Scarlet Letter effect (see, we read!) becomes too much to take, Olive needs her friends, family, and maybe even high-school evangelical Marianne (AMANDA BYNES in her last film role) to help her! Also, it's got THOMAS HADEN CHURCH, LISA KUDROW, PENN BADGLEY, DAN BYRD, MALCOM McDOWELL, and freaking more!
So put on your corset and listen to us talk teens, sex, and comedy in part 1 of "SEX EDUCATION WITH EMILY STONE!"
