[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] The Terminator [1984] by Bea Harper
Dir.: James Cameron Starring: Linda Hamilton, Michael Biehn, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lance Henricksen, Earl Boen, Paul Winfield, Brad Fidel’s sick mech-beats and Stan Winston’s visual brilliance Well, poopie. I have no valuable insight you haven’t read or figured out for yourself, no deep, penetrating ideas about the human condition that hasn’t already been addressed by those considerably … Continue reading

[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] Alien Vs. Predator [2004] by Bea Harper
\ Dir.: Paul W.S. Anderson Starring: Sanaa Lathan, Raoul Bova, Ewen Bremmer, Lance Henricksen and Colin Salmon Although bothersome, ridiculous and downright nonsensical as Paul W.S. Andersons’ adaptation in name only of Alien Vs. Predator is, with the gift of reflection it’s not downright terrible with a side of repugnance that many hardcore fans may … Continue reading
[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] Predators [2010] by Bea Harper
Dir.: Nimrod Antal Starring: Adrien Brody, Alice Braga, Walton Goggins, Laurence Fishburne and Topher Grace A welcome if bogged down by its own appreciation for films past return to the franchise, the Robert Rodriguez-produced Predators enjoyed a modest success upon release and a generally positive fan reception. While the film does feel rushed and highly … Continue reading
[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] Predator 2 [1990] by Bea Harper
Dir.: Stephen Hopkins Starring: Danny Glover, Rueben Blades, Maria Conchita Alonso, Gary Busey and Bill Paxton A worthy if slightly underwhelming sequel to John McTiernans’ rock-ém, sock-’em Predator with Danny Glover as the dogged Detective Harrigan who finds himself in the thick of a violent clash between the Jamaican-Columbian drug wars only to find out … Continue reading
[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] The Patriot [2000] by Bea Harper
Dir.: Roland Emmerich Starring: Mel Gibson, Heath Ledger, Joely Richardson, Tom Wilkinson and Jason Isaacs Historical and cultural sensitivity? LOL, that shit is for PUSSIES! Bring on the badass Colonials, mincing villainous Brits and all the canon fodder in between! Oi, Roland Emmerich. You meant well I suppose but you need to pick up a … Continue reading

Author: George R.R. Martin Published: 1982 One damn fine tale told by a damn fine author about vampires, steamboats, misty bayous, bloody parlors and the power of friendship. REALLY!

[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] An Open Letter To Creative Assembly RE: Predator game ideas! [by Bea Harper]
Alien Isolation rocked like nobody’s business last year with it’s tense atmosphere, intelligent AI, super immersive gameplay and overall experience of intensity. Creative Assembly, aligned with Sega delivered a fantastic experience as to what it would be like to be in Ridley Scotts’ retro-futuristic industrial nightmare and I feel it only makes logical sense of … Continue reading
[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] Alien Resurrection [1997] by Bea Harper
Dir.: Jean-Pierre Jeunet Starring: Her Grace Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder, Lord Ron Pearlman and Sir Michael Wincott (always a charismatic mofo) So yeah. This… oddity happened. This movie has caused quite a stir since its release and it’s easy to see why. It’s a dogs breakfast of fascinating visual flair, over the top and tongue-in-cheek … Continue reading
[Bea’s Ranting Reviews] Alien 3 [1992] by Bea Harper
Dir.: David Fincher (whether he likes it or not) Starring: Her Grace Sigourney Weaver, Lance Henricksen and Charles Dance Lannister Hell. I reviewed the first two movies, may as well give this one a spin. One word for the overall feeling of the movie- OUCH. Panned universally upon release and having spent more than ten … Continue reading

Villainlicious: Black Jack Randall [Outlander TV series] by Bea Harper
So far, Starz has done quite well for itself as a broadcaster for television, though it’s quality does tend to differ, however, one of their shining beacons is Diane Gabaldon’s adapted for television show, ‘Outlander’ starring Caitroina Balfe, Sam Hueghan, Graham McTavish and Tobias Menzies. In an era of which Game Of Thrones is … Continue reading
[Bea’s Apathetic Reviews] Poltergeist [2015] by Bea Harper
Apathy is perhaps the worst response a human can possibly have toward a movie. It’s better to despise something because that somehow means you care. I didn’t care at all about this bland, wasteful, far too obviously creatively impotent film. Why did I see it you ask? Because I was bored, and I still … Continue reading
