The Curator of Schlock #300: The Cannibals
The Curator of Schlock #300 by Jeff Shuster The Cannibals What’s eating you? I said I wasn’t going to cover anymore cannibal movies for Thanksgiving.

The Curator of Schlock #299: Terminator Genisys
The Curator of Schlock #299 by Jeff Shuster Terminator Genisys No more Terminator movies ever! I know I covered this movie once before. I think it was back in 2015. I rambled about the summer movies that year. One has to wonder in twenty, thirty, or even fifty years, which movies from the 2010s will be remembered? Scott Pilgrim vs. Continue reading

The Curator of Schlock #298: Terminator Salvation
The Curator of Schlock #298 by Jeff Shuster Terminator Salvation Okay. I’m bored! So maybe I was a bit off on my Terminator: Dark Fate box office success predictions.

The Curator of Schlock #294: Mad Love
