As the SAG-AFTRA strike clocked its 62nd day, and the WGA’s 135th, the former held a massive solidarity march today from Netflix HQ on Van Ness Blvd to the Melrose gates of Paramount to juice guilds’ spirits with the entertainment industry work stoppage running past Labor Day.
Or as California Federation of Labor Executive Secretary Treasurer Lorena Gonzalez told those guild members who showed up today, “This is an endless union summer.”
“We are not giving up because it’s September, we will not give up in October, we will not give up when the temperature goes down,” said Gonzalez to the crowd of around 4,000.
Attendees included SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher, National Executive Director and Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, Secretary-Treasurer Joely Fisher, Los Angeles Local President Jodi Long, Los Angeles Local First Vice President Sheryl Lee Ralph, as well as such stars as Marvel thespian Clark Gregg, Frances Fisher,...

By: Dan Moore “I’m just a doctor. I don’t even know what kind of doctor I am. I think I’m a brain surgeon.” That’s how Rob Huebel described the character of Dr. Owen Maestro, a character he’s portrayed through seven seasons of Adult Swim’s “Children’s Hospital” and now on Netflix’s “Medical Police.” This quote pretty much sums up the whole vibe of Netflix’s new comedy/action/thriller “Medical Police”. It may sound outlandish, but it actually works. Especially with sidekick Lola Spratt (Erin Hayes). The characters find themselves in the most intense situations that should be taken seriously until they start bantering back and forth. Leaving the viewer to never really know what to expect, in a good way. The show was created by Rob Corddry, David Wain, Krister Johnson, and Jonathan Stern. The show was scored by composer Matt Novack.

Gingerclown might be the strangest damn horror movie I review this year, a fate I valiantly accepted after discovering that rookie director Balázs Hatvani created the very first 3D horror comedy in Hungarian history. Hatvani’s ambitions are sky-high, but a horrid production quickly drags Gingerclown down to an Earthly realm filled with hammy acting, perverse puppeteering, and genre sensibilities that can’t decide between being a Gothic house of horrors or a slapstick comedy gag.
Filing Hatvani’s film under “horror” is an insult to movies that begrudgingly attempt a scare or two, even when laughs are at a premium, as this haunted attraction isn’t worth a lick in the terror department. With each passing moment of high-school-crushing and laughably inferior showmanship, the voices of Tim Curry and Brad Dourif are lost amidst stumbling villains with zero mobility. Cussing teacups, Eastern-European-Californians, shoddy costumes – what the hell did I just watch?...

The first full-length trailer for the upcoming horror/comedy “Gingerclown 3D” is nearly two minutes in length, yet it gives up nothing in regards to the picture’s impossibly intriguing cast of creatures. Are they keeping the good stuff for the second trailer? Perhaps. Regardless of the lack of monster-related madness, the clip is still worth investigating, especially if you’ve been following the production as closely as I have. I particularly enjoyed how the trailer’s narrator boldly declares that “Gingerclown” is in the tradition of 80′s-style horror. Way to state the obvious! In case you were wondering, the film stars Erin Hayes, Ashley Lloyd Luke, Michael Cannell-Griffiths and Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show) voices “Gingerclown,” while Brad Dourif (Child’s Play) voices “Worm Creature,” Lance Henriksen (Aliens) as “Braineater,” Michael Winslow (Police Academy) as “Stomachcrumble,” and Sean Young (Blade Runner) as “Nelly the Spiderwoman.” With a cast like that,...
