The Losers’ Club find themselves in Hell, where they’re surrounded by the most scorching Stephen King hot takes they’ve read to date. How scorching?

“They’re not as nihilistic as they look on the internet. That’s just what they want you to think.” If there’s one thing Gen X and Elder Millennials have over the youth of today, it’s the memory of life before the Internet.

A movie doesn’t have to be good for it to be GOOD. Better yet, it doesn’t have to be good for it to be meaningful. For many, A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge is more than a so-bad-it’s-good rewatch; it’s a film to rally around for its gay subtext (and just plain text). Though it […]
