INVISIBLE INVADERS are Ready for Social Security!
Everybody has their scary monsters. What the monsters can do outweighs what the monster is or looks like. CHILD'S PLAY Chucky is just a Good Guy until he goes full blown homicidal.
For many people, the scariest monster is the killer you can't see, because there's no way to know when its there: When It Is Near! That's the secret sauce of some of cinema's scariest Horror movies from THE INVISIBLE MAN to FORBIDDEN PLANET to FINAL DESTINATION. But it also worked in INVISIBLE INVADERS.

THE MATRIX RELOADED can Legally Drink
In 2003, the excitement for the first THE MATRIX sequel felt like a rescue. George Lucas let fans down with his Phantom Menace, but the (then) Warchowski Bros. would set the blockbuster year off right!
They won't let us down!
Genre movies are going to be fun again!
Hell, by 2003 it seemed as if nearly every MATRIX fan on earth was chattering about the many directions the first MATRIX sequel could go and all the new coolness we'll probably see!
Then we packed the theaters for a massive opening weekend, the lights went down, and this is what we saw, watching THE MATRIX RELOADED.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Turns 9
George Miller was back behind the wheel of his most famous and awesome franchise. He brought along Hugh Keyes-Byrne, as Toe-Cutter in the promos but as Immortan Joe in the movie. But there was a new actor playing Max and, unlike the plethora of actors playing James Bond through the many decades, actor Tom Hardy was justifiably concerned. He didn't want his career to wind up scorched as the George Lazenby of Max.
That was just one of the problems George Miller had to contend with while going through the Herculean effort of making MAD MAX: FURY ROAD.
