All The Boys Love Mandy Lane

All The Boys Love Mandy Lane, starring Amber Heard and directed by Jonathan Levine is a clever thriller that isn’t at all what it seems to be. This movie has such a wickedly delicious twist at the end, that it’s hard to talk much about it without giving anything away. Mandy is a high schooler […]

Hemlock Grove Episode 2: The Angel

Drink of choice: Simpler Times Lager Because I don’t have enough money to keep my fridge completely stocked with good beer, I have to go cheap from time to time.  At $4 for a six-pack, this qualifies as cheap.  It’s not bad, but it’s not really good, either.  I have to drink it pretty quickly; […]

Standards of Living movie review

Standards of Living is a 2013 film written and directed by Aaron Mento. The entire film was shot on an iPad2 which is pretty incredible considering the final output. As a personal note, I couldn’t take a clear video with my iPad if my life somehow depended on it, so to see an ambitious little […]

Hemlock Grove Episode 1: Jellyfish in the Sky

I was going to post this last night, but my internet died directly after the episode ended.  It was like Time Warner was telling me that they really, REALLY didn’t want to watch another episode.  It was the equivalent of hiding the remote. Either that or Time Warner has spotty coverage. Drink of choice: Sam […]

Dracula 3D Movie Review

This movie was awful. I won’t even waste time writing a full review for it. Instead, I’ll list things I’d rather do than watch this movie again.   Watch Soul Plane. Twice. Watch myself get castrated without a numbing agent. Twice. I would rather take an acid bath. I would rather have somebody inflict multiple […]

Evil Dead 2013 Movie Review

Description from Netflix: When a group of friends vacations at an isolated cabin in the woods, they discover an evil Book of the Dead – and unwittingly release a swarm of bloodthirsty demons in this spine-chilling remake of Sam Raimi’s classic horror flick.   My thoughts: I should probably stop using the Netflix recap as […]
