The Curator of Schlock #88: Mildred Pierce
The Curator of Schlock #88 by Jeff Shuster Mildred Pierce, or All’s Well That Ends Well?

The Curator of Schlock #83: Batman Forever
The Curator of Schlock #83 by Jeff Shuster Batman Forever (Batman Forgotten) I tend to wax poetic about the 1980s, but the 90s were pretty awesome in their own right: Mystery Science Theater 3000, Surge Soda, and Stone Cold Steve Austin to name a few things. But above it all was Batman: The Animated Series, one of… Continue reading

The Curator of Schlock #82 by Jeff Shuster April Fool’s Day Pranks can kill, kids! I have to admit, I didn’t care for these slasher movies when I first started watching them.
