Even Nicolas Cage Thinks He Took This Face/Off Scene Too Far Some of the best filmmaking happens when the cast and crew throw caution to the wind and really commit to an idea. When certain creators really give it their all, we get films like “Venom,” “Adaptation,” or “Evil Dead 2.” Movies that have nothing in common except that you find yourself sitting slack-jawed and mystified about what you’re watching, sometimes for good and some times for not....

Gods Behaving Badly: The Unreleased Christopher Walken Project We’ve Never Seen Cinematically, I’ve always thought of the Greek God Zeus as a toga kind of guy. That’s probably because I loved those old Ray Harryhausen monster movies when I was a kid, especially those classic swords-and-sandals adventures like “Jason and the Argonauts” and “Clash of the Titans.” Niall MacGinnis and Laurence Olivier memorably played Zeus in those movies, and many other actors have portrayed the character over the years....
