Don’t act surprised, you knew we’d be dropping a TrailerTown review for the new Pet Sematary movie this week. This trailer has been everywhere online, and we’ve watched it about 25 times. The good news is that it looks like the writers and the cast have worked hard to keep this story true to what makes it horrifying. The bad news is that we have…
Sometimes a teaser is all you need to fangirl out, and that’s exactly what happened when CBS released a TrailerTown for their upcoming revival of The Twilight Zone. Not only do we get thrust back through the metaphysical wormhole of Rod Serling’s mindhole, but they officially announce who the host and narrator of this version of the seminal classic will be: Jordan Peele! It’s all there,…
Whenever the Coen Brothers release a new movie, it is of immediate interest to us at High Five: The Podcast, but when they release a movie that is a Western anthology called The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and it looks as star-packed and wacky as this TrailerTown, we get a whole new range of feelings. We know the Coen Brothers can direct the shit out of…
There’s no introduction needed for High Five: The Podcast’s love of horror movies, and more specifically, the Halloween movies. John Carpenter created a masterpiece in 1978, and since then the quality has…..wavered a bit, let’s say, but ever since David Gordon Green and Danny McBride (surprising, we know) got attached to the project, we’ve been nothing but smiles. Early reactions to con footage gave us early…
They say “Too much of a good thing is a bad thing,” but when it comes to Steve McQueen’s newest film, Widows, too many good things look to make an amazing thing! Steven McQueen (Hunger, 12 Years a Slave, Shame) comes back to the screen hard with his Gillian Flynn-penned heist thriller which looks to be a cross between Ocean’s Eleven and The First Wives Club, but with…
There are a lot of names in Hollywood that perk up our ears for different reason. When we hear “Emma Stone” we get interested and excited to see what she’ll try out next. When we hear “Jonah Hill” we wonder which outlandish character he will portray next and how much weight he will have inevitably gained or lost for the role. When we hear “Cary…
When the Overlord trailer showed up this week, we were honestly pretty nervous. The last time J.J. Abrams threw us a surprise movie he produced we got The Cloverfield Paradox and we’re still trying to forget that one. Then Overlord popped up and just as our eyes began to roll, J.J. tells us this is a WW2 movie about Nazi zombies and we paid attention. Then this TrailerTown came out and…
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that High Five: The Podcast is hosting Jeff Goldblum Bingo at Diskin Cider in June, July, and August. What you may not know, is that June’s event is completely themed around one of our most favoritest Jeff Goldblum movies: Jurassic Park. When it was released in 1993, Jurassic Park took the world by storm, and for good reason….
In a year where we’ve already had a Hollywood Nice Guy shrink down to doll size and stink up theaters in a movie directed by cinema royalty (talkin’ about you, Downsizing), movie studios decided it was best to release a “Re-Do” of that premise in the form of Robert Zemeckis’ Welcome to Marwen. True, it’s not the same story, and honestly, everything about this TrailerTown looks better than…
We’re going to do something a little bit different for today’s TrailerTown. On tomorrow’s all-new episode, Q introduces a friend to the 1980 Robin Williams vehicle Popeye. Since she’d never seen Popeye, it got us thinking, how many other of you cinematic noobs haven’t seen the fantasy/action/comedy and Mr. Williams’ first starring movie role? We imagine it’s a lot of you, and with the upcoming HBO documentary…
