I told you I’d go back to horror

J. Lo will just have to wait (Unmarked Spoilers) The thing with this blog is that this isn’t my job. This is something that I do for fun. Which means I have to pay to see films out of my pocket, which means that there’s only a finite amount of movies that I can afford …

Shining, shimmering splendid

Well, this was a nice palate cleanser. Now I can go back to watching horror. This movie made my opinion of The Lion King  remake sink even further because I see now that film was way more a soulless cash grab than I previously thought.

The burn is bright

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a–run for your life. Get ready to be meet Brandon Breyer (Jackson A. Dunn), who has one of those sweet, alliterate names that rolls right off the tongue. Like Clark Kent or Lex Luthor or Michael Meyers. He’s brilliant too because despite not paying attention in class, he’s …

It’s a scary story made up of many scary stories

This ought to tide me over until It: Chapter Two After a chance encounter with newcomer Ramón (Michael Garza), a trio of friends consisting of Stella (Zoe Colletti), Auggie (Gabriel Rush), and Tommy (Austin Abrams) decide to show him the local haunted house.
