You know how you see something and you think, Oh man! I gotta tell people about this, but then you forget or put it off? Then, it’s been so long that you think, Well, they probably know about it by now anyway, so why bother? And then, you’re like, No, wait. I have something to [...]
Junior horror master (sorry, he’s not a full on master ala Wes Craven or Stephen King yet) Eli Roth‘s most recent project is the original Netflix serial Hemlock Grove. The show is based on Brian McGreevy’s novel of the same name. [...]
I try to ignore labels, but it’s still a little humiliating for me to reach for a work of fiction labeled “paranormal romance.” But, at the recommendation of a friend with seemingly good taste, I picked up the first book in Deborah Harkness’ All Souls Trilogy,
After several months of teasing us with previews, the American SYFY and Canadian Showcase channels have finally premiered the anticipated, Defiance.
Proffitt and I are originally from the home of the single, silvery Arch – St. Louis, MO. Trailers for the show featured the, “Is this [...]

“Well, it has to be better than the first one, right?” That pretty much sums up my initial expectations of G.I. Joe Retaliation. The first live action G.I. Joe , G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra, was an absolute disaster for most fans. Keep in mind, this is coming from someone who loves a cheesy [...]
Typically, when I love something, I consume it often: coffee, songs, movie theater popcorn, even some rare and special books worth investing another 10 hours in. And movies. Man, do I love re-watching movies. If I stumble upon Jaws, Bridesmaids, Serenity or Shaun of the Dead while flipping through channels (or, let’s be honest, scrolling [...]
Over the last few months I have been spending lots of quality time in the lovely-on-the-outside, seedy-on-the-inside town of Charming, CA: home of the Sons of Anarchy.
