Ice Age: The Meltdown

Commentary by Max Einhorn

Ice Age 2I can almost completely remember going to see the first Ice Age film back when I must have been in about 6th grade.

The Hills Have Eyes

Commentary by Max Einhorn

The Hills Have EyesSupposedly, Wes Craven’s The Hills Have Eyes is a classic and has helped develop the psychological aspect in the terror genre.
