May

I’m going to try something a little different here:I’m going to write a love letter to a movie. I’m not interested in pointing out any perceived flaws in the film, because I don’t want to take anything away from the viewing experience that is May. Dear May, Girl, I feel your pain. I, too, had […]

Bryan’s Basement:On Reboots and Chainsaw Massacres

On Reboots and Chainsaw Massacres: Bryan Akerley There are only so many times you can “reinvent” something before that something runs out of ways to be invented again.  Then, pretty soon, it’s the same regurgitated nothing and all thoughts of integrity and originality have long since gone out the window.
