Movie | Haunted Honeymoon | Liked It

Gilda Radner's last movie and the final film that Gene Wilder directed. Super fun...until the end, which fell apart. Bummer.

Movie | One In The Chamber | Liked It

It was okay, nothing special. Stupid simple script.

Movie | Fair Game | Didn't Like It

Ozploitation that wasn't really my thing; plenty of my rules broken. I did love the ambiance, though. That was cool.

Movie | Rockula | Liked It

How did I miss this cheesy, bewildering, dated, cult classic featuring Thomas Dolby, Toni Basil and Bo Diddley?!? The script was terrible (random music videos?!?) but who cares!

TV | Between | Liked It

Similar to shows like Under The Dome and Jericho, the twist here is that everyone in this quarantined town over the age of 22 is dead. Good example of how you can have flavor, even though the premise is beaten to death.

TV | Wayward Pines | Really Liked It

Matt Dillon was great but the show was a bit flavorless. Fortunately, the script makes up for it.

Movie | The Conqueror Worm | Didn't Like It

Aka Witchfinder General. It was terrible, I mean just bad in every which (witch?!?) way. Even though the always awesome Vincent Price was in it, even he couldn't save it and this movie should have been burned at the stake.

Movie | Kon-Tiki | Liked It

They took one of the favorite books of my youth and somehow made it into a somewhat boring film.

TV | Grace and Frankie | Really Liked It

It's all about the cast, Lily Tomlin in particular. The only thing that bugged me was that the pacing was odd, often stilted. But who cares when it's so much fun to watch these people at their craft.

Movie | Demoted | Didn't Like It

While it did have a few moments, it wasn't a good movie in any way.

TV | Babylon | Didn't Like It

First thing I've ever seen with Brit Marling in it that I didn't like. I'm still a fan, though.

Movie | Cypher | Really Liked It

I'm nearly positive that I've seen this before, especially given who directed it. But I didn't remember any of the details. Regardless, I really enjoyed seeing it again. Oops, turns out I did.

Movie | Tower Block | Really Liked It

There were lots of things I really liked about this simple thriller; a cool cast, the basic plot that was still interesting and the fact that the folks behind Cockneys vs Zombies made it. This film was not humorous in any way and I missed that but it was still good. Reminded me a bit of Cube and several other movies.

Movie | Natural Selection | Really Liked It

This story of a woman whose life is anything but fulfilling really clicked with me. Very well done and I enjoyed it greatly.

TV | Beyond the Tank | Didn't Like It

Formulaic and manufactured in the extreme. That's too bad because Shark Tank is a great show.

Movie | Midnite Spares | Really Liked It

Several connections to Mad Max in this one and another fun Ozploitation flick.
