When it was first announced that "Frasier" would be resurrected for a reboot, I think a lot of us had the same thought: again? Not that the beloved "Cheers" spinoff, which ran for 11 glorious seasons on NBC between 1993 and 2004, had already been rebooted once before, but that it feels like everything else has. From classics like "Hawaii Five-o" and "Dynasty" to hour-long dramas like "Veronica Mars" and "Prison Break," to dozens of sitcoms, like "Full House" (rebranded "Fuller House"), "Will & Grace," "The Connors" (a reboot/spinoff of "Roseanne"), "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" ... you get the picture.
The witty, quippy, debonair world of Seattle psychologist and radio personality Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) belongs to a rarefied universe of '90s TV dynamite, including "Friends," "Seinfeld," and "In Living Color," none of which have been rebooted. Would taking the paddles to Daphne, Roz, and Niles denude them of their charms?...

Samuel Goldwyn Films and Shudder have co-acquired North American rights to Adam Egypt Mortimer’s Daniel Isn’t Real, a thriller from SpectreVision starring Patrick Schwarzenegger and Miles Robbins. Sasha Lane, Hannah Marks and Mary Stuart Masterson also star in the pic, which will now hit theaters and VOD later this year.

Charismatic and full of manic energy, Daniel helps Luke achieve his dreams, before pushing him to the very edge of sanity and into a desperate struggle for control of his mind, and his soul.
SpectreVision’s Daniel Noah, Josh C. Waller, Lisa Whalen and Elijah Wood produced, with Johnny Chang, Peter Wong, Emma Lee and Timur Bekbosunov executive producing for Ace Pictures.

You can tell almost immediately when a movie is inspired by the life of its maker. Michael McGuire’s “Aquarians” is one such picture. Beautifully shot in Winconsin, near Lake Michigan, “Aquarians” is a compelling and thought-provoking drama, a potent motion picture that compares and contrasts two completely different characters, and dares to asks questions of which it doesn’t have many answers. It could be considered a critique of religion, a reflection on maturity and the way some people seem to be lost even as they were supposed to be finding their true calling… or it could even be a simple family drama with believable performances and breathtaking visuals. “Aquarians” is the kind of film that can be considered and...

As happened for so many other genres, the 1960s/1970s saw a tremendous creative expansion in crime and cop thrillers. The old Hollywood moguls had died off or retired, most of the major studios were bleeding red ink, attendance had gone off a cliff since the end of Ww II, and a new breed of young, creatively adventurous production executives had been tasked with trying to save their business by coming up with movies which could hook a new, young, cinema-literate audience.
It also happened to be one of the most socially turbulent times in American history. Even before the American public grew restive over the growing disaster in Vietnam, the social fabric was unraveling with self-examination and doubt. The Cold War; a certain inner emptiness that went with a period of great material prosperity; once invisible fault lines on matters of race and gender discrimination beginning to crack – all...
