FlixChatter Review: VENOM (2018)

Review by: Vitali Gueron The next Marvel Comics superhero action movie released by Sony Pictures in 2018 is Venom. The movie is the first film in Sony's Marvel Universe, which is auxiliary to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

FlixChatter Review: Nightcrawler (2014)

Seems that I might be the last person who hasn't seen Nightcrawler and I'm even gutted I didn't see this on the big screen. There is something so mesmerizing and disturbing about this film which is in keeping with the theme of the gawker mentality that the small-screen media capitalize on. Set in the nocturnal underbelly of …
