A Cinephile is defined as a person who is fond of motion pictures. I'm just a guy who likes to talk about it. I state my views and opinions on films current, past, classics, and the dreaded reboots. I will also discuss book and video game adaptations, television, comics, authors, directors, and anything else about the topic at hand. I love movies and if you do too, then you'll enjoy what I'm talking about. Or not. But you won't know until you give it a listen.

Another Stephen King adaptation, another home run. For me, at least.
I really went into this film expecting to hate it. I was proven wrong.
The first attempt at this film is almost 40 years old and is an actual horror film. This one isn't really a horror film, even though its marked as one, but its still a good movie. Find out more at https://diary-of-a-cinephile.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

This film is such a unique concept that I actually, for the first time in a long time, hope there is a sequel. Not only because I enjoyed it but also because I feel that the second time around, they might take more advantage of what they missed for this one.

I used to love these films, but I truly believed it was done after 3 out of 6 of them were absolutely terrible. Then, I discovered a 7th film came out 2 years ago that I had no clue about. So, how was it?

Marko Zaror is probably not known by a lot of people by name, but he is a good martial artists and he's popped up in a lot over the years.

For what has to be the most hated, trolled, memed, and bashed film in the Disney live-action remake line-up, this film definitely got way more heat than it deserved.
