Wait! Another Transformers movie? Yeah I said it!
Yes you read correctly! The metal crushing, transforming, perfectly made for CGI robots in disguise will be on the big screen once more! Micheal Bay confirmed this himself on his own website in fact. The original human cast will not be in this one, and that makes me wonder if we will see new Transformers...
Film Review: Safe House
Denzel Washington plays the CIA’s most dangerous traitor, Tobin Frost, who stuns the intelligence community when he surfaces in South Africa. When the safe house to which he’s remanded is attacked by brutal mercenaries, a rookie (Ryan Reynolds) is forced to help him escape.

Preview: Prometheus
Sir Ridley Scott, the visual genius behind a number of award winning films, (including Bladerunner and Alien) caused a massive fuss when he implied that he his upcoming sci-fi epic, Prometheus would not be an Alien prequel. Rumors of a new entry into the Alien franchise were confirmed in 2008, when Fox announced that Ridley Scott would...
C.U.F.F. 2011 Presents: "See It To Believe It" by Billy Rodriguez
The way Billy Rodriguez tells it, this is an incomplete work. That’s because he made the entire film the night before he submitted it to C.U.F.F.! But you won’t see anything missing. Billy Rodriguez displays a mastery of tone as he builds suspense, develops a character, creates a frightening atmosphere with eerie lighting and provides cool...
Film Review: Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
Right to the point. The fourth Mission Impossible movie is good. Very good. So good as an action thriller, in fact, that it’s the only movie released this year that wouldn’t be completely overshadowed by a 7 minute preview of The Dark Knight Rises. A series of events lead to the death of an IMF...
C.U.F.F. 2011 Presents: "We’re All Going to Die Today" by Marc Bonfiglio Jr.
On the morning of November 11, 1996, Marc Bonfiglio’s father awoke with a very bad feeling. Perhaps his strong intuition, partially explains why he was able to survive the terrifying events that would occur that night, inside the small jewelry store he owned. Movies often allow us to experience situations we would never want to...
The Dark Knight Rises Official Movie Trailer
Hello there movie and comic book lovers, I have another great trailer for everyone today, it is the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises which opens in theaters July 20, 2012. I really can’t wait, and I hoping that this Bane character will be up there with the last movie’s Joker, and that the...
C.U.F.F. 2011 Presents: "Pain" by Ashley McCann
The most remarkable thing about Ashley McCann’s documentary entry into C.U.F.F. isn’t the professional editing or the jarringly intimate camerawork. It’s not the raw, poignant honesty she receives from her subjects in their interviews. It’s not the fact that she uses all of these elements to build an emotional and affecting arch to her entire...
Preview: Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol
The fourth installment of the exciting franchise is back with more action, explosions, hot women, and an amped up Tom Cruise. MI:2 was a bit of a let down but MI:3 and now MI:4 has certainly made up for anyone’s trepidation. Two-time Academy Award®-winner Brad Bird directs and Tom Cruise and J.J. Abrams produce. So...
