Penny Dreadful S1E6, “What Death Can Join Together”

Between the flashback episode and being gone for a week, I had almost forgotten about Ethan and Dorian’s night on the town. […]

The Vagrants

  So, I know that I sound like a broken record, but I’m really not much of a horror fiction gal. It’s just too much for my sensitive, little imagination to take sometimes. Or worse than that, it isn’t scary or creepy at all. Basically, unless your name is Joe Hill, I am going to […]

Penny Dreadful S1E5, “Closer Than Sisters”

Much like the Caliban-centric “Resurrection”, this episode is very heavy on flashbacks.  And by “very heavy” I mean the only non-flashback moments are Vanessa writing a letter to Mina.  The contents of that letter are what we see on the screen, which means we get the occasional voiceover from Vanessa. After the last couple episodes, […]

Goldthwait has managed to acquire a solid reputation as an “outside of the box” director with Shakes the Clown, Sleeping […]

The Darkenbog, by George Yesthal

The internet is a helluva invention. If you could travel time back to the 1940’s and tell someone that you had a device in your pocket that could answer any question with a push of a few buttons, check into flights without being there, and see picture of distant lands in an instant it would blow […]

Penny Dreadful S1E4, “Demimonde”

Look.  We all knew it was only a matter of time before an episode opened with a Dorian Gray orgy.  And it didn’t disappoint.  You know what they say: ain’t no orgy like a Dorian Gray orgy cuz a Dorian Gray orgy don’t stop. Except, eventually it does, and Dorian is able to grab a […]
