Counter Cinema Ep. 1 - Edge of Darkness The first episode of Counter Cinema is up! This one’s a bit rushed, what with Dan, Hunter, and I being working folk, but it’s a look at things to come. Consider this the pilot episode - with a full season ahead if it’s popular. Didn’t completely hate this video? Take a second and recommend us for the Film directory on tumblr....

Dan's 25 Favorite Films Of All Time, Part 4, The...
21. Se7en (1995) - David Fincher has a way of making movies that always makes me happy and creeped out at the same time. I even like Panic Room and Benjamin Button, two films the majority of the population did not care for. But at the top of his game, Fincher made Se7en, a dark and creepy thriller that has an ending that stays out even to this day. I think some of my favorite aspects of this film...

Dan's 25 Favorite Films Of All Time, Part 2
6. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) - Growing up, I was never much of a western fan. I never understood why people would sit through what I thought was 2 hours of long scenic shots that eventually got to a couple gunshots. My grandfather was a huge western fan and would yell at me as I rolled my eyes at his choice in films. It was my parents who knew the gateway to my current love of...

Dan's 25 Favorite Films Of All Time, Part 1
One of the worst questions you can ask a former film major upon the reveal of their degree is the somewhat inevitable, “So, what’s your favorite movie?” Fuck. Off. It’s a question that should (in theory) be easily answered, but I could never pick one film as a favorite of All Time. Mood, current company, age and life experience all contribute to a different answer. It could...
