The Princess Bride? Watchmen? Dawn of the Dead? Big films, you might say? Night of the Comet can’t hear you. Kristen chose this barely-seen apocalyptic zombie sci-fi-comedy and it tore up the competition. The question is, is it underseen/underloved or justly forgotten?
Before we get to the links, here’s the IMDb summary for the film, for those that aren’t familiar with...

Let me apologize for the late posting of these LAMBscores. I’ve been unusually busy this week, so it took a while for me to get around to them. We have 4 scores for you today, including a Tom Cruise actioner Jack Reacher and a pair of comedies – The Guilt Trip and This is 40. The movie that left the best impression though, was Michael...

Greeting everyone.
Yes I know it has been a while since I last posted one of these articles and I am truly sorry about that. WordPress was acting like a little bitch and did not save most of this post so I had to redo about half of it. However I will be making up for some lost time by posting a lot of trailers for you to graze on so it won’t be a complete lost. I could delve into how much I hate WordPress right...

This week’s lone film is one of the most anticipated releases of the year – The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Check out what the LAMB members thought of the film below. Remember, if you want to see your review on the next edition of the LAMBScores, head on...
LAMB Devours The Oscars is almost here!
