The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Aug 19, 2013
I'm now up to Season Five on my complete box set of "The Twilight Zone". (I know this is a movie blog, but don't worry...this will come out right in the end.) "The Twilight Zone" is one of my favorite TV shows of all time, and re-watching all the episodes just confirms that it still holds up after a read more
This Blog Is Not In 3-D
The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Aug 15, 2013
Joey DeAngelis, creator of the LonChaneyReviews channel on YouTube, recently posted a video discussing the use of 3-D in contemporary movies. Working under the theory that you shouldn't let someone else's good idea go to waste, I've decided to set down my own thoughts on the subject.

THE LIVING SKELETON
The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Aug 13, 2013
My journey through the Criterion Eclipse WHEN HORROR CAME TO SHOCHIKU box set is now complete. THE LIVING SKELETON (1968) is a prime example of a Japanese kaidan, and a surprising departure from the other films in this collection.

DIE, MONSTER, DIE!
The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Aug 11, 2013
Earlier this year I purchased a Barnes & Noble edition of the complete fiction of H. P. Lovecraft. I've been a Lovecraft fan since I was a teenager, and while reading all of his stories again it got me thinking about the various films based on Lovecraft's work.
I should have written "...the var read more

BEN-HUR (1925)
The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Aug 9, 2013
Because of all the movies that I've seen in my life, it's a very rare thing these days for me to watch a famous film for the very first time. But that's what happened last night when the Turner Classic Movies channel showed the 1925 version of BEN-HUR. The print TCM showed looked spectacul read more

IRON MAN THREE
The Hitless Wonder Movie Blog Posted by Dan Day Jr. on Jul 26, 2013
(NOTE: IRON MAN THREE is exactly how the title is presented in the film's credits....so the way I see it, that's the official title, not IRON MAN 3.)
I finally saw IRON MAN THREE the other day. I liked it, and I thought it was a very entertaining film. I don't know much about the Iron Man comic bo read more
