Kidman is all Dusty

Posted 18 years ago

Nicole Kidman hasn’t had a straight-up hit since THE OTHERS, but that hasn’t knocked her off the A-list thanks to prestige projects like THE HOURS. Now she’s reuniting with Michael Cunningham, the writer who helped her grope for Oscar gold...

Enter Cold Storage

Posted 18 years ago

How do you feel about slick-looking indie horror with deadly Nazi experiments? Personally, I dig it, particularly when it looks like COLD STORAGE. This flick, described as a “fast moving, atmospheric sci-fi thriller,” is set just before the fall of...
