The questions spanned from grave to goofy, but the replies were nearly always unexpected. This week our contributors discuss who they'd rather take a trip to the pub with: Werner Herzog or Quentin Tarantino.

Our Expendables 4 Dream Team

January 17, 2018  /  Aaron Haughton

the_expendables_3.jpg

As some of you may know, Stallone teased the prospect of the Expendables crew getting back together for a fourth installment with "a couple new members." Before Stallone's curious tweet, the last we knew was that he had exited the franchise for "creative differences," which in turn prompted Schwarzenegger to exit the franchise as well unless Sly returned. Well, whether it was a publicity stunt or a legit resolving of creative issues, it seems likely that the band of action heroes will be reunited for a fourth go around. That had us thinking, who would we love to see alongside the already staggering list of stars?

Howlin' At The Moon: Anthony Cleveland On Universal Monsters And His Comic Silver Skin

January 02, 2018  /  Aaron Haughton

Screen Shot 2017-12-30 at 2.19.25 PM.png

Anthony Cleveland is writer, father, and factotum. He recently self-published his first comic book, Silver Skin, a story about two brothers and the werewolf curse that afflicts the youngest of the two, Eddie, who is developmentally challenged. Every full moon, Ricky, must go at length to keep his brother (and everyone else) safe from the primal beast lurking inside Eddie, but how long can he carry on? Silver Skin is a story of grit and heart that will suck you in panel after panel.

The Great Debate: Is Bright As Bad As Everyone's Been Saying?

December 24, 2017  /  Aaron Haughton

BRIGHT_Unit_05187_CC-1-copy-920x584.jpg

The Max Landis written, David Ayer directed film, Bright, hit Netflix this past Friday, and it was met with a litany of critical backlash, some heralding it as "the worst film of 2017." The Rotten Tomato's "Tomatometer", on the other hand, proves that it's pleasing fans with a staggering 90% (versus the critics 30%). Based off the trailer, it seemed like a promising piece of cinema — as good as one could hope from a made-for-streaming movie, that is. I mean, it has Will Smith AND Joel Edgerton in the lead slots, both of whom are good, generally well-calibrated performers. Surprising enough, Bright had us divided here at Viddy Well. As opposed to doing a review on the film, which would undoubtedly highlight mostly one side of the coin, we decided to do a friendly debate to better showcase the subjectivity of cinema.

Die Hard: The Best Christmas Movie For Grown Ups

December 10, 2017  /  Aaron Haughton

aw-die-hard-christmas1.png

Recently, a poll from the UK revealed that a majority of the citizens don’t believe Die Hard is a Christmas movie... Even Stateside, most people watch it as an alternative movie, favoring one of the other overt Christmas classics over the holiday action masterpiece. The problem with a majority of these watchers is that they view it simply as an action film that takes place on Christmas, and don't appreciate it for the tongue-in-cheek Christmas classic it is. I’ve alway been in the camp that it's 100% a Christmas movie. But, it’s far much more of a character grounded, adult film and less of a spirit-filled Christmas tale.

Black Friday Movie Marathon

November 22, 2017  /  Aaron Haughton

dawn.jpg

For me, the trade off has never been worth it. Why in the world would I want to wake up before dawn on a day that I get off from work, only to stand in line to buy some marginally discounted crap that I could live without? The only real reason to do it is when you're buying gifts for your family, which, let's face it, most of us aren't there for the giving to others. Black Friday is easily one of the reasons why the holidays don't feel the same. People skip out on Thanksgiving to stake their claim outside of Walmart or Best Buy, abandoned the family altogether to worship the new holiday mascot: consumerism.

Thanksgiving Horror Flicks

November 19, 2017  /  Aaron Haughton

maxresdefault-1.jpg

Easily the top faux trailer from 2007's Grindhouse was Eli Roth's brutal and hilarious holiday-themed slasher, Thanksgiving. It was the most anticipated and hopeful trailer to actually materialize into a full-blown feature. There was some promising hype from Roth, but nothing was ever set in stone. The latest update was from last year: "I have a draft I'm not totally happy with," Roth told reporters in an interview. "I want to put some more work into it so the film lives up to the trailer. We have the story and mythology cracked so now it’s about getting the kills right.”

Last year, Robert Eggers floored audiences with his chilling tale of 17th century folklore, The Witch. However, it wasn't solely the Puritan nightmare that wowed the crowds, but Eggers' painstaking attention to detail and the film's historic authenticity. This week we'll take a look at the historical accuracies of the film's mythos.
