Minions & Monsters is now streaming on Peacock

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2003) 1.3 Skipper the Eyechild This is the lowest-rated episode of the entire series, and with the bonkers plot (an eye child is born after a guy is assaulted by a giant eye) and very dark humor, it's easy to see why. It's still a fun episode, but much more bizarre than the previous two. B- FilmYoyo 24

Loved the first one, but Anatomy 2 more or less does its own thing. It's less a slasher and more a sleeker, sci-fi-tinged medical thriller. The film definately felt more 'Hollywoodized' Still enjoyable, but not nearly as good as the original. C+ FilmYoyo 24

A standard boilerplate revenge action film, Collateral Damage (2002) is much more interesting for the backstory and how 9/11 completely sidestepped it (understandably) All promo for the film disappeared, and it would be shelved/retooled. Interestingly, This would have been Sofía Vergara's first theatrical film role as she was playing a terrorist who hijacked a plane (Obviously cut for obvious reasons) As is, this is a lesser Schwarzenegger film for sure, but still watchable.

I loved the first film, but R.L. Stine's Pumpkinhead 2 (2026) was merely serviceable fodder, and I never felt any tension like I did in the original. This is a film that they really should've spent more time on rather than rushing to get it out a year later. C+ #31DaysofHorror #TubiTuesday

I like the four Next Generation Star Trek films, but Star Trek: Nemesis is easily the worse one. A middle storyline and not really respecting the....Lore, diminishes it in my eyes. That being said, there are NO outright bad films in the franchise. C- FilmYoyo 24
