A better title for “Lee Cronin’s The Mummy” would be “Evil Dead Daughter”.

This film would make a lot more sense (and be a lot more fun) if it fully embraced being a part of the Evil Dead franchise.

#FilmSky
This is a review graphic for The Mummy (Lee Cronin). Left Side: • The poster shows a close-up of a partially unwrapped, decayed face peering through tattered bandages. • The tagline “Experience it in IMAX” appears across the top, with a dark, gritty horror aesthetic. • The film title The Mummy is displayed at the bottom of the poster. • Above the poster, bold text reads “REVIEW.” • At the bottom left is the Movie Postmortem logo, along with @MOVIEPOSTMORTEM on Bluesky and a red “SUBSCRIBE NOW” button. Right Side: • The written review is given: • It describes the film as feeling more like Evil Dead than The Mummy. • The visuals and gross-out gags are noted as strong. • The film is criticized for never being scary. • Cronin’s direction is acknowledged as solid, but the script is called thin and derivative. • Tonal clashes are said to drag the film down. • It is described as too long and too serious for what should have been a fun, wild experience. Rating is 2.5 stars out of 5.

Brief thoughts on The Drama.

This is the type of conversation starting film that I really enjoy. I understand viewers who wish this film said a lot more about the very serious subject matter.

I appreciated this humorous story about the hypocrisy of messy judgmental people.

#FilmSky
This is a review graphic for The Drama. Left Side: • The poster shows Zendaya in a wedding dress paired with an orange jacket, holding a bouquet, standing next to Robert Pattinson in a disheveled suit. • Both characters look tired and emotionally worn, contrasting with the idea of a traditional wedding. • The tagline reads “Witness the wedding of the year.” • Above the poster, bold text reads “REVIEW.” • At the bottom left is the Movie Postmortem logo, along with @MOVIEPOSTMORTEM on Bluesky and a red “SUBSCRIBE NOW” button. Right Side: • The written review is given: • It describes the film as a well-acted dramedy about grace, hypocrisy, and messy people. • Zendaya and Pattinson are highlighted as standout performances. • The editing is noted for effectively depicting anxious thinking. • The tone may feel too light for the heavy subject matter. • The film is said to spark laughs, discomfort, and strong post-movie conversation. Bottom Right (Rating): • The score is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4 out of 5 stars), credited to Reggie.

A movie has to be pretty dull for me to doze off twice in a Dolby theater filled with kids 😬.

I wasn’t expecting much from The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, but this feels very weak compared to the first film.

Yes, the very young kids in the lobby said they loved it for what it’s worth.

#FilmSky
This is a review graphic for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Left Side: • The colorful, high-energy poster features Mario front and center, surrounded by familiar characters like Peach, Bowser, Luigi, Rosalina, and Yoshi, all floating through a vibrant, cosmic setting. • The space theme pops with neon blues, purples, and greens, giving it that “galaxy” spectacle vibe. • Above it, bold text reads “REVIEW.” • At the bottom left is the Movie Postmortem logo, along with @MOVIEPOSTMORTEM on Bluesky and a red “SUBSCRIBE NOW” button. Right Side: • The written review is given: • It opens with “Low expectations, lower results,”. • The film is described as dull, aimless, and weirdly sleepy. • While a few game-inspired homages provide brief nostalgia, the overall experience is framed as a joyless Easter egg hunt. • New characters are called out for adding very little. • Even as fan service, it “barely powers up,”. Bottom Right (Rating): • The score is ⭐️⭐️ (2 out of 5 stars), credited to Reggie.

Here are my brief thoughts about Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.

For reference, I rate the first film 4/5 stars!

#FilmSky
This is a Movie Postmortem review graphic for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, combining the film’s poster with a written critique and rating. Left side: • The official Ready or Not 2 poster which is deep red in color. • The central figure (Samara Weaving) stands confidently amid a collage of characters holding weapons, reinforcing the film’s violent premise. • Bottom left includes the Movie Postmortem logo (film reel + surgical tools), the handle @MOVIEPOSTMORTEM ON BLUESKY, and a red “SUBSCRIBE NOW” button. Right side (my review text): A concise critique highlights: • Samara Weaving still delivering “horror’s best scream” • The sequel failing to capture the original’s “wicked fun” • Kathryn Newton being solid, but weighed down by too much sibling bickering • Pacing issues, including low urgency and a dragging final act • Overall takeaway: some humor works, but the sequel feels less fun and less sharp than the first. Bottom right: • A rating of ★★★ (3/5 stars) labeled “– Reggie”

🎭 September on Movie Postmortem: monsters, mind control, and a Bradley Whitford trilogy?

🦖 Godzilla: King of the Monsters
👀 Get Out
🪾 The Cabin in the Woods
💪🏾 Predator

Lots of deadly threats. One actor involved in most of the mayhem! #MoviePostmortem #BradleyWhitford #FilmSky #MovieSky
This collage shows three different performances by actor Bradley Whitford, each pulled from a notable genre film where he plays very different kinds of characters: Left: Whitford as Steve Hadley in The Cabin in the Woods (2012). Here, he plays one of the cynical technicians overseeing the ritual sacrifices. His buttoned-up look with a white shirt and tie matches his role as a bureaucratic mastermind orchestrating horror from behind the scenes. Center: Whitford as Dr. Rick Stanton in Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019). He’s seen holding a Monarch coffee mug, with glasses and gray hair, embodying a weary but sharp-witted scientist who provides comic relief while also guiding the human response to the kaiju threat. Right: Whitford as Dean Armitage in Get Out (2017). Sporting a beard and glasses, he smiles warmly, masking the sinister truth about his role in the film’s unsettling plot. On the surface, he’s the friendly liberal dad, but beneath, he’s complicit in the terrifying scheme. This side-by-side collage highlights Whitford’s versatility across horror, sci-fi, and thriller films, while also showing how he often blends charm with an undercurrent of menace or satire.

🏚️🥼 The Cabin in the Woods (2012)

“Don’t Read the Latin”

In this episode we discuss monsters, meta-commentary, and maintenance issues that no serious secret organization should tolerate! 😄

#TheCabinInTheWoods #MoviePostmortem #FilmSky #MovieSky #DontReadTheLatin
Episode promo for season 1 episode 43 of the cabin in the woods. The podcast branding is placed over the very dramatic title card of the film which has huge red front showing the title almost completely obscuring a scene of two office workers ride a golf cart through a tunnel in a fresh facility tunnel.

We’ve dissected 3 American Godzilla films so far on Movie Postmortem:

🦎 Godzilla (1998)
🌊 Godzilla (2014)
👑 Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

What’s your favorite American Godzilla film?

What’s your favorite Godzilla film overall?

Alt: The title card that appears at the end of “Godzilla: king of the monsters” 2019 which shows the title in bold red font. Interestingly, the title here includes the Roman numerals for two (II) and it says “Godzilla II: King of the Monsters”. Fitting because this is the sequel for the 2014 film but this is the only time the film is called Godzilla II. This was not shown in the marketing.

One of the coolest things in Ang Lee’s Hulk is seeing Hulk leap across huge distances!

Fun fact: that’s exactly how Superman originally traveled too. He only later leveled up to full flight. Hulk, on the other hand, never got that upgrade. 😔

#MoviePostmortem #FilmSky #MovieSky #Hulk
Comic panel of the Hulk leaping through the air with a joyful expression, his arms stretched wide. He is wearing his classic ripped purple pants, muscles flexed as he soars above the ground. Behind him, several large arc-like leaps are shown in sequence, illustrating the immense distance he covers with each bound. A caption box reads: “Peace. It will be a new experience in the life of the Incredible Hulk!” The Hulk from Ang Lee’s Hulk (2003) is shown mid-leap, soaring through the air against a bright blue sky with clouds behind him. His massive green body is fully extended in motion, muscles tensed, with arms outstretched as if gliding and preparing to land. He wears torn purple pants, and his expression is focused and determined but also somewhat peaceful. The shot captures the a good depiction of Hulk’s comic accurate, gravity-defying leaps.

🧬 August on Movie Postmortem was a remix of reboots and radioactive repercussions! ☢️

🦖 Godzilla (2014)
👽 War of the Worlds (2025)
🕷 The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
💚 Hulk (2003)

Four reimagined adaptations. Not all are worth a watch.

Top right: The Hulk from Ang Lee’s Hulk (2003), close-up with an intense expression. Bottom left: Ice Cube from War of the Worlds (2025), sitting in an office looking serious. Bottom right: Godzilla from Godzilla (2014), roaring against a dark sky. The joke is that Spider-Man, Hulk, and Godzilla gained their powers through radiation, while Ice Cube is humorously out of place.

Hard to believe Batman Begins came out 20 years ago!

One thing I love is how you can still feel a hint of Patrick Bateman in Bale’s Bruce Wayne. You just know his version of Wayne didn’t just brag about going to Dorsia’s, he bought it!
