Ghost Rider
I’m not going to give this a full review; many have been there before, so there’s very little I could add, in all honesty.

DVD Review: Masters of Horror – Incident On And Off A Mountain Road
Some horror directors seem to become associated with a particular writer’s work during their careers.

Cut off from his handlers, feeling more alone than at any other point in the movie, undercover police officer Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio) receives a call on his mobile phone. The phone is his only real point of contact [...]
