Syfy’s “Paranormal Witness” Season 3 kicks off with a devilish episode

Of the number of shows in the “paranormal reenactment” genre that are on television, several of which air on Syfy, Paranormal Witness (on Syfy) is among the most successful, both ratings-wise and, in my opinion, in execution. Sure, there is not too much in its presentation that you haven’t seen in many a horror film (and some shots and setups seem even borrowed from notable fright flicks), but the series is generally effective in creating a tense atmosphere, and in delivering a few shocks. It will continue to attempt to creep you out as Paranormal Witness Season 3 premieres June […]

7 Questions With … Dolph Lundgren of ReelzChannel’s “Race to the Scene”

Hard to believe it’s been nearly 30 years since Dolph Lundgren burst onto the scene as Rocky IV baddie Ivan Drago. Since then he’s gone on to a steady career in action movies, mostly the B-level, direct-to-DVD variety but with occasional forays into A-list territory. He recently re-teamed with Sylvester Stallone for the all-star Expendables flicks, and has also made a point to take on more offbeat roles in unexpected projects like the quirky comedy Small Apartments. It’s all part of an effort to hold the interest of the Swedish native, who in addition to being able to kick your […]

VOD Spotlight: Identity Thief

Identity Thief stars Jason Bateman (Arrested Development, Terrible Bosses) as Sandy, and Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids) as Diana, a woman living the high life after stealing Sandy’s identity. Originally envisioned with two male leads, Bateman (who also is one of the producers of the film) suggested changing the character of the thief to a female, a decision that played out when McCarthy jumped at the chance to play Diana. “I liked that Diana was scrappy and gets physical with [Sandy]. I can’t think of a comedy where you see a man and a woman physically fighting and it’s not slapsticky. In […]

Longmire recap: “Carcasses”

It’s not often you can link Latin and turducken into a murder mystery, but this week’s episode of Longmire — the splendidly titled “Carcasses” — does so within the first few minutes. OK, so now we know why we love this show; let’s find out what happened. It starts out as so many Longmire hours do, with a quiet, serene drive along the roads of Absaroka County, Wyo., when all of a sudden death intervenes. This time it’s a lady named Holly who earns what is apparently a good living collecting animal carcasses off the road and putting them in […]
