Show me one movie where things work out wonderfully in a fallout shelter and I?ll show you Blast From the Past. Otherwise, Hollywood?s track record for happy ending fallout films is about as successful as the Brooklyn Brawler?s WWE career. Warner Bros.’ latest offering, Hidden, is no exception. But at least it?s got a little…
The staff of ScreenFish set out to tackle their greatest fears, well, at least their scariest films. Here are the staff’s greatest flicks for your Halloween consideration.

The highest-grossing film of 2015 – the third highest-grossing film of all time – is available on 3-D, Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD. I think I must’ve been the last person alive to see it [okay, slight hyperbole] but the truth is that this is simple math in several scenarios. Let’s examine a few. First,…
This week, cyberspace has been abuzz with the thirtieth anniversary of Marty McFly’s ”flight’ to the past, and the future, and the past past.

It is filled with tons of edge-of-your-seat drama and over the top special effects, yet in the midst of all that, there is an interesting story behind it.?You can already guess…
Anytime you watch a?Brad Bird (The Incredibles,?Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol) or?Damon Lindelof (Lost, The?Leftovers) vehicle, you know that you’re in for a wild ride of the imagination.
