“Onyx”

By Matthew Garcia | Feb 12, 2016 | Reviews

With roots in that sort of ’80s military science fiction action set, “Onyx” bursts on the scene with plenty of pyrotechnics, crazy monsters, rough heroes, and world-ending stakes.

“Fante Bukowski” Will Destroy All Jocks

By Mike Romeo | Feb 9, 2016 | Reviews

An artist’s pursuit can be difficult. You work, and struggle, and work, and starve, all for what usually amounts to little more than fuel for the ego. It’s bullshit.
