The Metal Crypt

Event Horizon

Year 2047, a rescue ship leaves to find a spaceship that was lost years earlier. That spaceship can fold space and time to go to its destination almost instantaneously. This is basically horror science-fiction, in roughly the same league as Alien (not as good and different story, of ...

The Bedford Incident (1965). Black and white movie. I found it on YouTube, but I could swear I saw this movie a very long time ago.

A U.S. Navy ship is tracking a Soviet submarine and the captain is a little obsessed with getting them. The captain is a hardass and runs a tight ship, though not ...

I rewatched Alien: Romulus last night. I had seen it in IMAX when it came out in the summer of 2024.

My opinion hasn't changed much. It's a good entry in the franchise, but it doesn't bring much that you haven't seen before (though those mining colonies look depressing as fuck). They almost get the ...

Krisiun, Abysmal Dawn, Pyrexia and Gorgatron in Montreal last Friday. This was a busy metal night in Montreal: There was this show, next door was a sold-out Blind Guardian show, and maybe a 10-15-minute walk away was one of the Messe des Morts nights (I think that was sold out too).

Not a huge ...

Yeah, same here.

My retired brain just noticed that December is just a few days away. Let's try to get some action in here by mentioning some of the best and also maybe the worst albums (EPs too, I guess) you've heard this year.

The Cassandra Crossing (1976)

Saw this while browsing through YouTube videos yesterday and it had been a long time since I saw it, so why not. :) A couple of guys break into a laboratory with a highly-infectious virus (a plague) and he gets infected and manages to escape and boards an ...

Little death metal night in Quebec City last night: Spirit of Rebellion (album release show), Sulfure, Worm Altar and Cadavris.

Cadavris is a new band, no official release yet, but they have members from established bands like Riotor. Pretty solid and very enjoyable set. Worm Altar, the only band ...

Killing Gunther

I thought this was more recent than it is (2017). A group of assassins teams up to kill "the best hitman" (Gunther). Things don't go exactly as planned and, well, that's the movie. It's a comedy that made me smile more than laugh. If you watch the movie, keep watching through the ...

Laws of Man

This takes place in 1963 Nevada, where two U.S. Marshalls are out to serve a warrant for murder. The movie is a little goofy at times and I wasn't sure I'd keep watching, but after a bit I had to see where it was going. Not a ton of actors, this takes place in a very small town that's ...
