PRETTY SCARY 2 REVIEW: ‘Fugue’

For a couple of years in college, I was a music major. I generally liked it except for Tuesdays and Thursdays when, invariably, I’d have a 7:30AM class. My freshman year it was Music Appreciation. Music History took its place… Continue Reading →

REVIEW: ‘Spirit Camp’

If you ask either of my ex-wives, there are a great many things that I don’t know anything about. However, I do know something about cheerleaders. Now before you start with the knowing winks or high-fives, let me clarify: my… Continue Reading →

REVIEW: ‘Drive Angry’

Are you sitting down? If you’re not, you might want to. Ready? Here goes. Nic Cage has done a movie I like. It’s that that I dislike him as a person or actor. It’s not that he hasn’t done anything… Continue Reading →

PRETTY SCARY 2 REVIEW: ‘Within’

There are few things in life more capable of scaring me senseless than humans. We are an unpredictable creature from the day we breathe our first breath. Much like beautifully wrapped packages on Christmas morning, you may only guess what’s inside…. Continue Reading →

Serving up victims cajun-style in "Hatchet".
