 February 3, 2012, 8:23am CST (Magic Spells Will Not Stop “The Woman in Black”) Long before Jigsaw, Freddy Krueger or even Jason, there was Dracula, Frankenstein and The Mummy…but not as Universal Pictures envisioned them in the 1930s and 40s. I am referring to the far bloodier, gaudier, and sexier movies Hammer Films produced in the 1950s, 60s and early 70s starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing and which became fodder for late night TV.

 January 27, 2012, 8:26am CST (“The Grey”: Face to Face with Death) Liam Neeson’s slow transformation into a thinking man’s action hero started a long time ago in a galaxy not so far away. In fact, it started with his very first film, John Boorman’s “Excalibur” (1981) where he played Sir Gawain, one of King Arthur’s Knights of the Round Table. He later played the scientist turned into a disfigured avenging angel in Sam Raimi’s “Darkman” (1990) and the dashing Scottish rebel Rob Roy in the 1995 film of the same name. But it was as Jedi Knight Qui Gon-Jin in the god-awful “Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace” (1999) that finally turned him into a dependable, charismatic action star. So this whole notion that Neeson has unpredictably become one of today’s top action movie stars after the box-office success of “Taken” is, quite frankly, poppycock. He’s always been a dependable, versatile actor regardless of genre. It’s just that nobody was honestly paying any attention.
