Despite the fact that he hasn't dabbled in the horror genre that made him a household name in many, many years, I am still quite looking forward to his upcoming film 'Cosmopolis.' I'm so excited for it, based on its trailer, that I'm even willing to forgive the…

In today's world, it is so hard to distinguish oneself as a filmmaker with a unique story to tell that reinvents the wheel in a way that suits both the casual viewer and the film buff who is constantly looking to be surprised by what cinema can provide for them.
