Horror has always managed to do well at the box office. The way of thinking has always been since the movies are so cheap to make, it is easy to profit of of them. This year has been especially good, with indie horror doing a lot of the heavy lifting. It is clear there is a lesson to learn from this, but will Hollywood learn the right one. (Spoiler alert: no.)
Zack Snyder is one of the most polarizing directors around today. That takes in a lot of territory since pretty much everything fits that description nowadays. We talk about his latest project and why we are interested in it. Does this make us Snyderbros?
Chum does not reinvent the wheel, but it does not have to. It is a simple revenge story filled with some of the best shark attacks we have ever seen on this show. We talk about the use of AI and how less can sometimes be more. A great sharksploitation movie is more than just a kick ass shark, however. It is not a question of how poor the writing in Chum is; the question is does it ruin all the good the rest of the movie does.
