Most of you are probably fans of the 2009 Ruben Fleischer directed film Zombieland. The charmingly hilarious take on the zombie genre stars Woody Harrelson (Tallahassee), Emma Stone (Wichita), Jesse Eisenberg (Columbus), and Abigail Breslin (Little Rock) as survivors of a mad cow disease derived zombie virus. If you’ve done your nerd due diligence, you [...]
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. [...]
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 [...]
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.

If you’ve been watching Arrow, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries or other CW fare, you have probably been inundated during the commercial breaks with cryptic snippets and the hashtag #DoNotWatch flashing across your screen for the new show Cult. I have to admit, the promo pieces peeked my curiosity and the one with the girl [...]
Perhaps the biggest difference between myself and much of the internet is that I far prefer liking things to not liking things. People, food, stand-up comedians – unless these things unrepentantly hurt others or make me sick, I’m inclined to enjoy them. Same goes for pop culture. If I can find even one character [...]
Whoa, who knew Keri Russell could believably kick some major ass? One episode and I am sucked back into the cold war era 1980s. Thankfully the political climate and not the music or fashion is taking center stage next to the three main [...]
Word of the Nerd’s Sean Perreault may scoff at his homeland’s television productions, but Proffitt and I have been very impressed with Continuum, now three episodes into the first season on American’s SYFY channel. A touch of Terminator and [...]
While I almost always watch the Academy Awards and Golden Globes ceremonies, rarely do I enjoy the experience as much as I did last night, as the 2013 Golden Globes were awarded in Los Angeles. You may remember that I am a notorious movie and tv show fast-forwarder, prone to skipping things [...]
