I was talking about Lake Mungo with a friend of mine on Facebook, and she mentioned how sad that movie is. Like, soul-crushingly sad. We’re basically watching a documentary about a close-knit family who tragically lost a family member, and we see them deal with the loss in their own way. It’s a heartbreaking character […]

Review of “Infected Freaks Volume One: Family First” Review by Joy Yehle I’m not going to lie, I love The Walking Dead, but I hate the long breaks between the short seasons. I’ve been searching for something to fill the void and I think I may have finally found it. I picked up “Infected Freaks […]

I will talk to anyone and everyone about the extent of my love for the first Dead Snow. It’s a little slow out of the gate, but it eventually delivers the full-fledged insanity I hoped that it would, while still developing characters I wanted to spend some time with. It’s one of my favorite zombie […]

Director: Luchina Fisher Writers: Tananarive Due and Steven Barnes Before I get started, I’d like to point out that Steven Barnes has writing credits for The Twilight Zone, The Real Ghostbusters, The Outer Limits, Stargate SG-1, Baywatch and Andromeda.

TWD, S4E16, “A”, by Dusty
What I’m drinking: Anchor Brewing’s Liberty Ale. I love this beer. Great flavor, with a little hop bite at the end. It could almost be seen as a gateway IPA: a lot of the characteristics of an IPA, but not quite as in-your-face as most craft IPAs tend to be. Dark enough for winter drinking, […]

TWD S4E15, “Us” by Dusty
What I’m drinking: Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Barley Wine. Alltech has been playing around with their bourbon barrel ale for a couple years now. These small batches normally sell out pretty quickly, so you have to get your hands on them when you can. This one has the sweetness of the standard bourbon barrel ale, with […]

The Grove; TWD S4, E14
We have only three episodes left and this one did not disappoint. The opening scene of Serial Killer Lizzie playing tag with a walker while that creepy music played was strangely beautiful. (Am I the only one who had flashbacks of Insidious when that music was playing?) I really loved this episode because I felt […]

TWD S4E14, “The Grove” by Dusty
What I’m drinking: Southern Tier Porter. I thought the days of ice and snow were behind us for the year. I was mistaken. Luckily, I had a few of these in the house. A dark, textured flavor, perfect for the winter. Seven things that annoyed me: 1. The forced parallels Carol draws between Mika and […]

TWD S4E13, “Alone” by Dusty
What I’m drinking: Country Boy’s Cougar Bait. A local brewery. This is their blonde ale. It has a light taste to it that lends itself well to warm days. We’re finally getting some of those, so this seemed like the time to start drinking this again. Five things that annoyed me: 1. After all this […]
