The Signal (Review)

The SignalThe Signal (2008)Directed by David Bruckner, Dan Bush and Jacob Gentry"Do you have the crazy?"Fuck yeah I do. I'm crazy for The Signal, which is one the best movies of 2008.Let me start off by saying the jaded viewer is jaded because I've seen a lot of horror and underground movies.

Top 10 Scenes in Bloodsport

What are the top 10 scenes in Bloodsport? Well there are so many to choose from but we here at the jadedviewer have narrowed it down. I had to make some tough choices and cut it down to ten. Some notable exclusions are the opening montage scene, a couple of the mega fights (yes I know, I've got no Paco or E.Honda fights listed) and some memortable Dux moments ("you might wanna have kids one day" SPLIT).Not everything can be put in but these 10 are the most awesome.10 scenes. 10 classic moments.So on to the list Shingo!#10 "OK USA!"Why it kicks...

Rewind: Trading horror movies circa 2002
