Fan Film Mondays - Halloween Knight Review

It's another Fan Film Mondays. Much like last year, I reviewed a fan film based on an iconic horror franchise. Only that was Friday the 13th, and this time I around we see what happens when Michael Myers and Batman collide.

Halloween Knight is a 2025 fan film based on both the Halloween franchise and the DC Comics' character Batman. It's produced by No Joke Entertainment and was directed by Nicholas Joel Kranick who also wrote the story with R.W. Martin and Adam Parrott.

The story is, it's been 40 years since Michael Myers terrorized innocent people in Haddonfield on Halloween in 1978. The institution that was holding him was shut down and he was scheduled to be transferred to Arkham Asylum, but Michael escaped and his now heading towards Gotham City. However, unlike Haddonfield, Gotham has a dark protector who isn't afraid to go after the purely evil masked killer. That protector being none other than the Dark Knight himself, Batman.

• Negatives

I've got nothing.

• Mix

If there's one thing to slightly criticize but not too harshly it's the fact the movie isn't all that polished. Acting ranges from serviceable or better than you think. Costumes are decent enough. Sometimes the lighting isn't all that consistent, other times it's good other times only slightly decent. The point is there's clearly people capable of working the filmmaking equipment, they just need to keep practicing. But again I'm not gonna be too much of dick to Nicholas and his film. Because 1) It's a fan film and nobody was expecting prime Hollywood material. 2) This was his very first fan film. And everyone's first movie can be rough, fan film or otherwise. And 3) It's very obvious they were working on a tight budget. I think it was estimated this was made for like $15,000. So if Nicholas ever makes a sequel or another fan film, hopefully he'll have more of a budget and his filmmaking skills improved.

• Positives

One positive is the music. While the film may needed some work here and there, I can't say the same thing for the music. The main title music alone sounded like it'd hear from an actual officially licensed movie.

Another good aspect is the fact this was made by passionate fans. First there's plenty of easter eggs. There's a car scene involving an abusive pimp that's clearly taken from The Dark Knight Returns, the Batwave from the 2004 animated series The Batman makes an appearance, some teenage punks are listening to Rob Zombie's song I'm Your Boogieman, which is a nod to the fact Rob Zombie was the director for the remakes of Halloween & Halloween II, and Silver Shamrock masks from Halloween III: Season of the Witch are worn by said teen punks and the Silver Shamrock Halloween jingle can be heard in the background. But other than easter eggs, there's the story. Not only is Batman vs. Michael Myers something I'd expect to here from fan debate, but the writing respects both properties. Michael Myers isn't treated as a joke or some easy obstacle for Batman. He's treated as that purely evil killing machine with no clear motivation for why he's killing people. Meanwhile Batman is written as a detective and hero trying to stop a madman.

So overall a pretty decent fan film. If that sequel does become a thing then I wish Nicholas and his crew the best of luck. If you want to this out go right ahead, but heads up. This is fifty-seven minutes long so watch if you have the time.

My final rating is, a low Good.

That's all for now. Come back on Thursday, Oct 22nd, for my Classic Film Night review of, American Psycho. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

Street Fighter (2026) Review

 

We got a brand new live-action Street Fighter movie. Will this be the first ever good one or is it gonna be a stinker?

Street Fighter (2026) is a martial arts film based on the iconic Capcom video game series of the same name, and the third live-action adaptation. It's produced by Legendary Pictures with Paramount Pictures acting as thr distributor. Kitao Sakurai directed and wrote the screenplay with T.J. Fixman, while the story was written by Dalan Musson and Gary Dauberman.

The story is, Chun-Li has searched and found both Ryu & Ken and recruits them to the second World Warrior tournament. But what the two don't know is the tournament is a set up by the evil dictator M. Bison so he can steal Ryu's powers.

Initial Reaction

Originally I was skeptical about this movie. The last two Street Fighter movies weren't exactly something to write home about. Then I saw the trailers for this and it seemed like it could be some fun popcorn entertainment. So I decided to give this one its fighting chance.

Cons

The only thing I didn't like about the movie was the humor. I laughed like once throughout the entire movie, everything else was either meh or just plain bad. It doesn't help that at one point the filmmakers want this to be serious then a couple scenes later wants to be funny. I mean it'll give the humor some credit, it didn't go for meta jokes. I think the closest we got was Cammy talking about people loving Chun-Li's thighs and not seeing the big deal. But that was more smack talk than a joke.

Middle Ground

The biggest mix bag is the story. Characters such as Ryu, Ken, and Chun-Li all have stories that's about regret, not feeling good enough, and revenge. So they got some sort of development going on. The rest of the characters not so much. M. Bison is just doing standard villain stuff, which can be kinda fun but nothing that's really gonna blow you away. But all of the other characters such as Guile, Vega, Cammy, etc. are barely used or might as well have been cameos. Now don't get the wrong idea I wasn't expecting every single character to have a deeper story, but if you're gonna use some fan favorites at least give them bigger supporting roles instead of they're here one moment, gone the next, and pop up later. But the biggest letdown was the tournament. Despite being the main reason why a majority of our characters are here it's not used very much. We get maybe two or three tournament fights while the others happen off-screen or a character forfeits with no dramatic tension whatsoever.

Pros

The biggest praise I can give this is, it actually looks and feels like a Street Fighter! The movie doesn't shy away from more fantastical elements of the source material. We get their fighting styles, their special attacks, and the actors and actresses actually look like the characters. This isn't the '94 movie, where the fantastical elements are barely there. And it isn't like Legend of Chun-Li, where the filmmakers are trying to make everything grounded. The movie fully embraces what makes Street Fighter, Street Fighter.

This is deeply flawed video game movie, but at the same time it wasn't terrible or boring.

My final rating is, a low Okay.

That'll wrap things up. Come back on Monday, Oct 19th, for a more spooky edition of Fan Films Mondays. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

The Host (2006) Review

 

Monday I reviewed the movie Dog Soldiers, a movie that was made outside of the United States. But after I finished that movie I realized I haven't reviewed a non-English movie since The Raid back in 2024. So to fix that I go from Britain to South Korea with a horror flick I've heard about many times but never got around to watching until now. Oh and if you're wonder why I put the year the movie was released is because I didn't want any confusing with that crappy 2013 film with the same name.

The Host is a South Korean monster movie that was produced by Chungeorahm Film and distributed by Showbox. Bong Joon Ho directed and wrote the screenplay along with Ha Joon-won and Baek Chul-hyun.

The story is, in 2000 an American pathologist ordered his Korean assistant to dump hundreds of bottles of formaldehyde down a drain which finds its way to the Han River. Six years later, a mutant monster born from that action is causing havoc and killing people. Caught up in this madness is a family who must find a way to survive this monster and a supposed virus it carries.

• Negatives

The only true negative I can is the CGI. Now design wise the monster looks great. It's a very ugly monster and has a lot of amphibian traits. But the CGI for this thing isn't good plain and simple.

• Mix

I've got nothing.

• Positives

One praise I'll give is the surprising tonal balance. The movie's tone can range from horror to drama to action and comedy. And it's all balance to a great degree. The drama of the dysfunctional actual works instead of cheap tag on. The horror has some good tense, and there were some funny moments that got a laugh out of me. But not only is the tone balanced but because it's so well executed it gives the movie a very unpredictable edge.

Now Joon Ho, Joon-won, and Chul-hyun do dive into social satire by not only taking influence from an actual waste dumping scandal (the McFarland incident) but by dividing into things such as government incompetence, media hysteria, etc. Now unlike today's satire where it's clear the woke writer is playing favorites, Joon Ho and company actually do a good job on their satire because he along with his fellow writers critiqued both the incompetence of the American and Korean government. Because of this not playing favorites attitude you can something that's actually entertaining instead of preachy.

The last praise I'll give is Song Kang-ho's performance for his role as Park Gang-du. His character is a slow-witted clumsy misfit but is also shown to be a caring father. Kang-ho captures both the character's comedic side but he also anchors the film emotionally as well. And when two very big and sad events happen to Park you're actually hoping the guy wins in the end, and that's in part thanks to Kang-ho's performance.

While the CGI isn't good, there's a lot of other aspects to love about The Host.

My final rating is, Good.

That's all for now. Come back on Saturday, Oct 17th, for my review of the newest live-action Street Fighter movie. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

Underrated Films - Dog Soldiers Review

Alright, we continue the season of spooky with a brand new Underrated Films review.

Dog Soldiers is a British action horror movie that was produced by Kismet Entertainment Group, The Noel Gay Motion Picture Company, Victor Film Company, and Carousel Picture Company with Pathé distributing. Neil Marshall both wrote and directed.

The story is, a squad of British soldiers are into a remote area of the Scottish Highlands to carry out a training exercise against a Special Air Service unit. After the training is over, the soldiers soon find the torn apart remains of the SAS unit. They quickly realize they're being hunted by a pack of werewolves. The soldiers only hope is to fight back and survive until the sun rises.

Why It's Underrated

It's a tale as old as time, a great film that just doesn't get enough attention. I haven't seen a TV showing for this film in years. The last time I remember that is back in I believe 2005 when I was channel surfing and I stumbled upon this film on SciFi (although now it's spelled SyFy). But I can't recall this movie ever getting more showings pass the 2000's on TV or a brand new DVD/Blu-Ray release.

My Thoughts

Now before I start praising this movie let's get something out of the way first. Dog Soldiers doesn't do anything really new in horror or more specifically the werewolf genre. However! The entertainment factor with this is off the charts. Whether it's the intense action, so moments that actually are scary, or those bits of dark comedy, the movie is never ever boring. So despite hitting some familiar beats you'll recognize from other films, there's never a dull moment.

With that slight criticism out of the way let's start the praising. One great thing is the casts' chemistry. These guys actually do feel like soldiers who've been with each other for a long time. Whether they're trash talking each other, talking about football, or telling stories of soldiers they knew but are sadly no longer alive, these guys feel like they have a brotherhood. So when one of them do die it actually does sting quite a lot. So thumbs up to the cast.

There's also the pacing. The movie clocks in at an hour and forty-five minutes but it never felt like that. That whole story beat where the soldiers find the ripped up remains of the SAS happens when you're like twenty-three minutes into the flick. That scene may not be the big main event but the fact we're at the moment where our heroes know something that isn't human killed those men shows that Neil Marshall wasn't wasting everybody's time.

My last praise goes to the special effects, especially on the werewolves. This was released in 2002 thus this movie is twenty-four years old (God that made me feel old typing that) but despite it's age the werewolf effects still hold up. It helps that Marshall chose practical creature effects like costumes and animatronics rather than something made with CGI. Had he gone that route than that really would've shown how low budget the film is, but I digress.

I strongly recommend you all watch Dog Soldiers for your Halloween season. It may hit some familiar territory, but it's a blast to watch.

My final rating is, Great.

That's all for now. Come back on Thursday, Oct 15th, where I'll continue to go outside the United States to find some horror movies to review by giving my thoughts on The Host. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

The Social Reckoning & Other Mommy Review

 

That's right I'm doing another double review! But before we get started let me explain a few things. So if you read my review on The Crazies then you were expecting this review on Saturday, yesterday. Well the reason why I didn't upload on Saturday was because two unexpected things happened. First my dad wanted my help with the garden he and my mom have. So I'm throwing dead plants out into the field, cleaning pots, among other things. Then, my grandpa asked for my help moving things around at his place. Now I could've said I'll help me on Sunday and he would've been understanding, but then I would've felt like a dick. So I instead helped him out and just save this double review for later.

The Social Reckoning is a biographical legal thriller that's based on the events of the 2021 Facebook leaks, and a sequel to The Social Network. Production was done by Columbia Pictures and Alcon Entertainment with Sony Pictures being the distributor. Aaron Sorkin both wrote and directed.

The story is, a young Facebook engineer named Frances Haugen has enlisted the help of a Wall Street reporter Jeff Horwitz to blow the whistle on Facebook's most guarded secrets. This event will soon be known as The Facebook Files.

Cons

I've got nothing.

Middle Ground

There are two mix bags, the biggest one being the timing. As we know the hearings happened in 2021, it's now 2026. By this point everyone knows or has an idea of what The Facebook Files are. Having said that it still works as an engagement and watchable film. It's sharp and procedural structure still holds together. But this really should've been released in 2023 or maybe early 2024. That way it could've had the same sense of urgency The Social Network had. There's also the way the movie looks. Now Sorkin as a director keeps things nice clear and focused. But this movie really could've benefited from someone who could match David Fincher's slightly icy visual style that made The Social Network look controlled and a little menacing.

Pros

One good or should I say great aspect is Sorkin's writing and dialogue. His screenplay is a smart and focused on the friction between traditional journalism and tech power. His writing did great highlighting how engagement-driven algorithms are more focused on growth and outrage. Then of course there's his brilliant dialogue. One of the best was "You're like a crossing guard standing in front of a school but you're not doing anything with your arms, so the cars are just plowing down the children". Another good one final thing I'll touch on is the performances. Mikey Madison is the dramatic center. Madison plays Haugen as an introverted data engineer who believes in Facebook's original "connect the world" mission and is shocked to discover the site would much rather prioritize engagement. She does a great job showing Haugen go from quiet idealistic to someone willing to risk everything. Then we have Jeremy Allen White as Jeff Horwitz. White brings out Horwitz feeling of being out of his depth but refuses to look the other way. And his more casual, low-key delivery pairs well with Madison's more intense internal focus.

Overall The Social Reckoning is pretty good. Should've been released sooner but still worth checking out even if you're only gonna do it once.

My final rating is, Good.

Now let's move on to our next movie.

Other Mommy is a supernatural psychological horror movie based on the 2024 novel, Incidents Around the House. It's produced by Blumhouse and Atomic Monster with distribution by Universal Pictures. The writer is Nathan Elston and the director is Rob Savage.

The story is, seven year old Isabela aka Bela has been talking to something who she's named "Other Mommy" because of the entity's resemblance looks exactly like her real mother Ursula. But as Bela's encounters with the supernatural creature become more and more frightening, Ursula along with her husband Russell will do everything they can to protect their daughter from Other Mommy.

Cons

I've got nothing.

Middle Ground

Now there are some effective scares. The opening with Other Mommy contorted underneath the kitchen table is very freaky and terrifying. But then the scares quickly get repetitive. There really needed to be more space between the scary moments. Because after awhile you start to recognize a pattern, and pattern recognition kills dread. Not to mention but the repeated scares also undercuts the dysfunctional family storyline. Other Mommy is clearly meant to be a warped reflection of Ursula's martial strain. But that story never gets its full potential because the filmmakers were far too focused on the next horror scene. So the family story arc only reaches a decent level.

Pros

There's three good things about Other Mommy, one being Jessica Chastian's dual performance. She brought out Other Mommy's twisted smiles and uncanny elements. And when she was the real Ursula she's far more restrained and shows confliction with Ursula's struggles. There's also Arabella Olivia Clark and her performance as Bela. Despite this being her seventh acting job, her showing Bela's fear of both Other Mommy and her realization that her family is broken was great acting. Her along with Chastin really grounded the movie. My last praise will go to the production. This was made with a budget of $19 million dollars and that money was spent very well. The film looks polished and the set pieces looked great.

While I wasn't fully disappointed at Other Mommy, I do think you should just wait for it to go to streaming or rent on a DVD. Some moments can be uneasy and scary, but for the most part you don't gotta rush to see it.

My final rating is, Okay.

That's all for now. Come back tomorrow, Monday, Oct 12th, for my Underrated Films review of Dog Soldiers. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

The Crazies (1973) Review

 

George A. Romero is best known for his zombie films. While those are tempting to review I decided to look at his other horror films. Oh and if you're questioning why I put 1973 it's because there was a remake released back in 2010. Just thought you should know.

The Crazies is a sci-fi horror movie produced by Pittsburgh Films and distributed by Cambist Films. George A. Romero both wrote and directed.

The story is, Evans City, Pennsylvania has accidentally been exposed to a bioweapon called "Trixie". This virus causes people to either die or worse, become hysterically and homicidally insane. While the government officials try to contain and cover up their mess, a group of survivors are try to escape the martial law city and try to find safety outside.

• Negatives

I've got nothing.

• Mix

The only mix bag I can think of is the acting. Some actors are actually good and can give you good performances. But there are others who can veer into over the top which can take you out of the moment.

• Positives

One praise I'll give is Romero's directing. His Guerrilla style directing with its raw location shots, urgent, and chatter overlapping gunfire almost gave the movie a documentary feel to it. Which was very similar to what he did with Night of the Living Dead.

My other praise goes to how much pressure there. We get two parallel storylines. One is our survivors trying to escape but will either be attacked by the infected or soldiers. Meanwhile we have government officials trying to control the chaos while waiting for their scientists to find a cure. So you can't help but feel on edge for both stories.

The last thing I'll praise is the movie is scary but for a much different reason. While it can be violent, what makes it scary is the fact Romero didn't pick and choose which side is "the good guys". The government soldiers are rounding people up, will sometimes shot people on the suspicion of infection, will occasionally enforce the quarantine with lethal force, and treated Evans City as a containment problem rather than a community of citizens. But the infected (or "The Crazies" as they're called) are no better. Some are quietly unhinged, others are childlike, and then there are some who are brutally violent. So you can't tell who's infected by looking at them and if you can figure it there's no telling what level of insanity they are unless they act in a truly violent manner. So by not choosing a side, Romero has in a very uncomfortable truth that both are capable of extreme, dehumanizing behaviors. Because of this decision not to pick sides, the movie has more of lasting impact after you watch it.

The Crazies is a really enjoyable film to watch. And I'm glad I picked it over one of Romero's zombie films even if said zombie films are more iconic.

My final rating is, Good.

That's all for now and there'll be more to come for this Halloween season. Come back on Saturday, Oct 10th, for my double review of The Social Reckoning and Other Mommy. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.

Lanterns Review - In Brightest Day, In Blackest Night, Let There Be No Season Two in Sight

 

⚠WARNING!!!⚠: I WILL BE DIVING INTO SPOILERS! SO IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED LEAVE NOW!

......We all owe the 2011 Green Lantern film starring Ryan Reynolds an apologize. It's still not good but compared to this it's a masterpiece.

Lanterns is a comic book tv series based on the DC Comics' comic book series Green Lantern (or at least that's what the creators of this show want you to believe) and it's part of the DC Universe and their Chapter One: Gods & Monsters. The series is produced by Man, Woman, & Child Productions, DC Studios, and Warner Bros. Television and distributed by HBO. The show is created by Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, and Tom King. This season consist of eight episodes.

The story is, in Rushville, Nebraska four people were shot and killed during a football game. Feeling there's an alien connection to these killings Green Lantern Hal Jordan & trainee John Stewart go there to investigate. This mystery will lead to darker questions and reckonings.

• Negatives

Oh believe me folks, there's a lot of negatives to write about. Starting with how the writers to this didn't understand Green Lantern lore. For starters, what's this whole thing about Hal training John to his replacement? Throughout the show there's only one ring for them to have. That wasn't a thing in the comics. In the comics the Earth lanterns are chosen as backups to Hal Jordan and given rings. That was the case with Guy Gardner and do you know who else was a backup for Hal...John Stewart! So why does this whole thing of "only one can wear the ring" matter in this show? It seems like in the comics the Guardians of Oa were just giving those away to Earthlings. Then there's also the fact they completely nerf the Green Lantern ring. That ring is a very powerful weapon in the DC Universe. But apparently in this show the ring is always running out of juice (when it's convenient to the plot) and it's weakness is black smoke. The only reason this ring is so weak is because the writers aren't creative enough to write about such a powerful weapon. And I know they're not creative with the ring because there's so many boring construct in this show. Several of them are forgettable, there was only one construct that stuck out and it was some sort of drilling machine. And speaking of construct and yet again not understanding how Green Lantern powers work, apparently you don't need a ring to keep a construct active. Because in the second episode John is able to keep a constructed bird around with no ring. Oh and also the ring ask you if you're afraid and if you say who are then you're not worthy to be a Green Lantern...that's not how it works! The ring has internal scans so the ring should know if somebody is afraid or not. Not to mention but if a Green Lantern ring approaches you it means you have the strength to overcome fear.

Then we have the woke crap. Yes, just like a previous DC Universe tv series project the writers gotta inject the very same thing that's killing the entertainment industry. The biggest example of this is episode three, OutKast. Where John's mother (I'll get into that crazy bitch later) was going on and on about how Hal Jordan was "privilege" enough not to know fear. Ah yes, Hal Jordan with his famous and well known privilege. The same Hal who in the comics saw his father die in a test flight, who's city got destroyed then that tragic disaster caused him to lose his mind, got possessed by a cosmic entity that's the embodiment of fear then that same entity turned him into a villain. It's also the same Hal who died, then was bonded with The Spectre (who's the embodiment of God's vengeance) and had to struggle controlling said spirit of wraith. And this stupidity gets dumber because John's mother actually accuses the Guardians of Oa of racism. You have no idea how much I wish I was making that up. The writers even explained how the ring is sexist! Yet again, you have no idea how much I wish I was making that up. I can name three no, five female Green Lanterns. There's Jessica Cruz, Arisia, Jade, Soranik, and Laira. And those are the ones I know on the top of my head. I bet there's somebody out who made a whole list of female Green Lanterns I wasn't aware of or forgot.

Then there's the characters of this show. I'm not gonna go over every single one of them just the most important ones.

-Hal Jordan: This show has nothing but hate towards Hal Jordan. If you read any of his comic books or which his animated movies then you can easily tell he's the most disrespected character in the entire show. At first he's just an asshole. But as the show goes on they change him, not for the better no. They change him for the worst. Cause by the end of this season Hal is revealed to be a broken man with a family history of depression. Oh that whole thing about being broken is implied to be why Hal is fearless. Not because he's brave but because he's broken. And here I thought him getting killed off in the first episode was gonna be the worst thing but boy was I wrong.

-John Stewart: I absolutely hate this version of John Stewart. Not only can be boring but he's not a good hero. He doesn't want to be a Green Lantern because it's the right thing to do, no, it's because his parents groomed him to be a Green Lantern. But what really made me hate was the last episode. He covered up for the woman who killed Hal thus making him complicit, but he becomes his own Lantern by embracing fear (which is a horrible message) but he also has the nerve to tell Guy Gardner (a fellow Green Lantern) to patrol and protect the galaxy and he'll protect Earth because Earth is his. Yes, he's claimed Earth as his property. Oh and that ring he's using his Hal's ring that he stole from Hal's corpse. This guy isn't a hIero, he's a Yellow Lantern in the making.

-Sheriff Kerry: At first she didn't bother me. I thought she was decent...but then the big twist with her was revealed. Basically she killed Hal during an emotional breakdown because Hal find out her son Noah was the last remaining Manhunter (Manhunters being highly dangerous machines capable of eliminating entire populations). But not only did she shoot and kill Hal, but she tried to cover up her crime. All in an effort to protect her son. A son who's struggling with internal Manhunter programming by the way and probably has aspirations that could put the world in danger. So yeah, Kerry is a murder protecting her son who's a possible threat.

-Guy Gardner: Guy isn't in the show that much but I hate what they did to him in the final episode. Basically after John makes his big grand speech about how Earth is his, Guy is actually intimidated by this and flies away to tell the Guardians of Oa about John's actions. In other words, they made Guy a pussy in this episode. Which is something he's not in the comics and it doesn't make any sense. This is the same exact Guy who wasn't afraid to throw down with Superman in Superman (2025). So Guy's not gonna take any shit from the Man of Steel, but John is what makes him be a tattletale to the Guardians?

-Sinestro: This is a lousy villain. His big villain arc and his entire history with Hal was skipped. He only did three things on this show. Talk to Hal about John. Escape from his prison (off-screen). And make John's lantern. That's it. The biggest villain in the history of Green Lantern was reduced to basically guest appearances and a sentence about his escape. Such fantastic writing.

-Mr and Mrs. Stewart: THESE PARENTS ARE ABSOLUTELY INSANE! It's one thing if they trained little kid John to become a Green Lantern by putting him through tough training routines and being a little hard on him, but the way these two did it should've gotten John taken away from these lunatics. Not only does his dad have an inferiority complex and his mom's batshit crazy but their training methods consist of making John walk home from a ghetto at night and shooting apples off of the top of John's head. And when I mean shoot, I don't mean they're using a bow and arrow, they're using bullets to shoot apples off of John's head. Where in God's name was child protection services?!?

So yeah, the characters in this show suck.

• Mix

The only mix bag is the acting. Not in a sense everyone was decent, but more like their acting is good but the material they're working with is garbage.

• Positives

Really? You think I'm gonna say anything nice about this show with how much I ranted on it?

Lanterns is gonna do far more harm to the Green Lantern brand than the 2011 film ever could.

My final rating is, Awful!

If you want actually want some real Green Lantern material stick to the comics written by the likes of Dennis O'Neil, Ron Marz, Judd Winick, Geoff Johns, Peter J. Tomasi, Robert Venditti (mainly his Rebirth era work), and more recently the stuff written by Jeremy Adams. And if that's too many comics for you to read, then go watch Green Lantern: The Animated Series on Tubi (while it's still on there) and the two animated movies Green Lantern: First Flight & Green Lantern: Emerald Knights. And if you're more interested in John then Hal, then go watch the cartoons of Justice League & Justice League Unlimited. Then when you're done watching that stuff then maybe go read the comics. Just don't bother with Lanterns.

So that's going to do it for me. Come back on Thursday, Oct 8th, for a return to the creepy stuff with my review of George A. Romero's 1973 film, The Crazies. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day and don't watch Lanterns. Save yourself the headache and don't bother with this show.
