TWD S4, E6: “Live Bait”

I know that everyone was probably expecting the inevitable showdown between Rick and Daryl, but it just wouldn’t be TWD’s style to show you the Governor at the end of last week and then not spend this week catching us up on his story.  We were gifted with a lot of action at the prison […]

TWD S4 E5, “Internment” by Dusty

What I’m drinking: Newcastle Werewolf.  The goal was to save this for Hemlock Grove, but, at this point, it seems unlikely I’ll go back to watching that show.  At least not anytime soon. This is a decent beer.  Not nearly as good as Newcastle Brown Ale, but pretty good.  It has a bitter berry taste […]

TWD S4, E5: Internment

” Not Everyone Gets To Live” So, Rick is still looking at himself in the rearview mirror, contemplating his decision to excommunicate Carol. Wait!! Where did these dogs come from?! So, I guess this virus isn’t  zoonotic. Interesting. Cell Block D is quickly becoming a morgue rather than an infirmary. If it wasn’t for Hershel, […]

The Walking Dead S4, E4: “Indifference” by Dusty

You can read Fremont’s thoughts on this episode here. What I’m drinking: Apple cider and Fireball cinnamon whiskey.  With Fremont drinking gin and juice (combined with the debacle that was last week’s episode), I thought I’d step up my drinking game this week.  Before long, I’ll be slamming down bottles just a little too hard […]

On the one hand, I still think Lizzy is a […]

Girls Against Boys

Written and directed by Austin Chick, Girls Against Boys is a unique and interesting take on the rape/revenge genre.  In fact, to pigeonhole it as simply a rape/revenge movie would be a disservice.  It’s more of an exploration of the old adage “Hell hath no fury like a women scorned.” Shae (Danielle Panabaker) is a […]
