It’s impossible not to think of the T-Rex scene in Jurassic Park while watching Bryan Bertino’s chilling and succinctly titled The Monster. You remember: It’s dark, and the rains have started. The Jeeps have stalled en route to their destination. The kids are in one car, adults in the other,...

Jose Fernandez had cocaine and high levels of alcohol in his blood when he likely piloted his boat into a rock jetty just off Miami Beach last month, killing himself and two passengers. That's the finding of the Miami-Dade Medical Examiner in a report just released to the press.
I'm not afraid to admit that I get a kick out of Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon thrillers. Yes, they’re indifferently plotted and predictably written. But I’m a sucker for ludicrous, centuries-spanning conspiracies and indulgent faux-gnosticism. The books serve, if nothing else, as gripping tours through art-world apocrypha, and Brown’s know-it-all...
When white people first "discovered" the Everglades centuries ago, they figured it wasn't good for anything. To them, it was just a swamp full of bugs. But the weather was nice, so they just stomped all over everything, ruined the land, and dropped some roads and strip malls on the area.
Miamians rarely, if ever, have an excuse to complain about the weather. When the rest of America sits under a smothering carpet of snow, we can still usually go to the beach. Yes, we get some occasional flooding, but our rainstorms usually don't last longer than Game of Thrones episodes...
So much for that whole "Donald Trump deserves a shot" mentality Hillary Clinton was advocating yesterday.

After a wave of protests, Ohio Gov. John Kasich last month vetoed a bill that would have banned abortions in Ohio after six weeks — a period before many women even know they're pregnant. Kasich received a brief round of applause before turning around and signing a 20-week abortion ban. Anti-abortion group Ohio Right to Life still applauded Kasich's decision, stating the "20-week ban was nationally designed to be the vehicle to end abortion in America."
Though 2016 will be remembered as the year when a slew of iconic celebrities died, none will have gone out with as much style as David Bowie. Today marks a year since the British singer-songwriter seemed to have turned his death into an artistic statement.
Scientific studies have shown that being exposed to large amounts of marijuana smoke in an unventilated room — AKA hotboxing — can increase your heart rate while decreasing cognitive skills, but the conditions have to be extreme.
As she sits at a table inside a Wynwood coffee shop, Aileen Quintana projects an otherworldliness. Though she's dressed mostly in black, she seems to radiate the colors that characterize her vibrant art projects, such as her vaporwave mall installation, Sunset @ Noon, which recently showed at this year's III...
You see them all over Miami: pampered pups riding in pastel strollers or walking on Louis Vuitton leashes. Pooches dine on freshly baked doggie biscuits at tony restaurants. Heck, there's even a special South Beach Wine & Food Festival event, Yappy Hour, that caters to dogs. To these pooches and...
Music fans and progressives alike spent most of the past year denouncing 2016 as a dumpster fire. But many of the American anxieties that came to a head last year surfaced in 2013. Over the course of those 12 months, we were confronted with the prospect of an overreaching and...

Steve Allen didn’t know what to make of Frank Zappa. The clean-cut young musician was promising to “play the bicycle” on the set of The Steve Allen Show in 1963, spinning the wheels and tapping on the spokes. The result, with the help of a tuneless orchestra behind him and...
Florida sure looks like it's on the verge of legalizing medical marijuana. Poll after poll shows Amendment 2 riding well above the 60 percent threshold needed to pass. And although casino magnate and Trump BFF Sheldon Adelson has dropped $1.5 million to defeat the measure, that's way less than he...
You've tried everything to overcome election-related stress: drinking, exercise, meditation, Ben & Jerry's, more drinking. Nothing has worked — yet. But who knows? Maybe relief awaits you in the form of a giant inflatable White House. Today, a traveling, grownup-size bounce house in the shape of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. will...

Annie had three evil spirits inside her. Well, actually, two: One was pregnant with a cute little baby evil spirit.

Fabricated rape allegations — the type where someone falsely accuses another person of rape just to hurt that person — are statistically rare. The National Sexual Violence Resource Center estimates that between 2 and 10 percent of sexual assault allegations are made up, and women's rights activists say the few high-profile fake accusations discourage real survivors of sexual assault from reporting crimes.
A national website this morning ranked Miami the nation's third best "foodie city" just behind Portland Oregon and two slots ahead of San Francisco. No kidding. Wallethub considered 150 cities across the nation in things like cost of groceries, restaurants per capita and specialty stores per capita. Orlando topped the...
It takes a preposterous amount of gall to dump a gigantic vat of oil into the ocean. It's cartoon-level evil, like something Biff Tannen's toxic-waste company BiffCo from Back to the Future Part II would do.
