There is a portion of the geek press that has come to decide that Marvel movies, the MCU, are inherently bad. Perhaps it is ‘too much of a “good” thing’, or maybe it’s just that familiarity has bred contempt, but the fact is that once Marvel became so ubiquitous at the theater – and… Continue reading THE ETERNALS – review

COME TRUE – review
A couple of months ago I reviewed a film that was a sequel to a film I took far too much joy on torpedoing and in that sequel’s review I wanted to make it clear that I wasn’t the same person that wrote that first review. I am more than happy to talk mess on… Continue reading COME TRUE – review
Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things – review and appreciation
I was still a kid when I discovered Children on one of our regional over the air channels that ran a double feature block of horror movies on Saturdays.

RISE OF THE SCARECROWS : Hell on Earth – Review
If there’s one thing that I can say I truly appreciate about experience and age it’s that the meanness of youth often falls away.

Fade to Black – movie review
You know, as a geek, there something that’s a bit irresistible when it comes to gazing deep into our bellybuttons and staring at our fandom in the mirror. It’s interesting then that so often movies about fandom leans more towards the dark as fandom can be pretty gross and caustic. Fans are not always the… Continue reading Fade to Black – movie review
Fixing the Past
Ya know, as a self-published author I can't say I haven't dipped into the pool of revisionist history, though I never got deeper than my ankles. I wanted to fix things, to clean things up, but as much as I have wanted to do more, I haven't. It's dangerous business, taking that time machine into… Continue reading Fixing the Past
