Happy Indigenous People Day! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

I want to wish everyone a Happy Indigenous People Day as well as a Happy Thanksgiving if you’re Canadian, by birth or immigration. However, we shouldn’t honor Columbus Day for there is no reason to honor him. Thank you again for reading and subscribing. If you have today off from work, I hope you haveContinue reading “Happy Indigenous People Day! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!”

Don’t Get Caught In ‘The Mouse Trap’

If that Winnie the Pooh as a serial killer movie was able to produce a sequel, then some genius thought audiences would want to see someone kill people while wearing a Mickey Mouse mask. But it’s supposed to be the Mickey Mouse from “Steamboat Willie” which fell into public domain as of Jan. 1 ofContinue reading “Don’t Get Caught In ‘The Mouse Trap’”

Third Adaptation Of ”Salem’s Lot’ Sucks Life Out Of Source Material

Stephen King had already written the first draft of what became ‘Salem’s Lot when his first novel, Carrie, was published 50 years ago. Originally titled Second Coming, it was changed to Jeruslam’s Lot, which is the real name of the town in the book. Then, it was shortened to just ‘Salem’s Lot, which is theContinue reading “Third Adaptation Of ”Salem’s Lot’ Sucks Life Out Of Source Material”

‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre” Turns 50

Let me start off by saying, I’m not a really big fan of the original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. By the time I saw it, I was in my teens and so much had been discussed of movie for over 20 years that I was expecting something bigger. Instead it was really just another anotherContinue reading “‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre” Turns 50″

‘Jailbird: Love On The Run’ Soars Over Basic True-Crime Documentary

There are an estimated 1.9 million people currently incarcerated in jails, prisons or involuntary commitments to mental hospitals. And over half a million people are located in local jails. While that might seem like a small number in comparison with the entire population of the country, it is still a higher number per capita. DespiteContinue reading “‘Jailbird: Love On The Run’ Soars Over Basic True-Crime Documentary”

‘Private Diary Of Lyle Menendez’ The Mind Of A Sociopath Or A Manchild?

Now that the Menendez Brothers have been thrusted into the spotlight once again with the show Monsters on Netflix, there’s a brief mention of this book. And anyone who is a true-crime buff will like to read or more importantly listen to the audiobook. But anyone else will junk it as garbage. I admit, LyleContinue reading “‘Private Diary Of Lyle Menendez’ The Mind Of A Sociopath Or A Manchild?”

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ A Perfect Satire Of Superhero Movies

Warning: This post contains spoilers. Sorry, this movie has been out for a month and a half and grossed a shitload of money, so if you were wanting to see it, you’d seen it already. The Deadpool movies always acted in a very subtle way like parodies of superhero movies. In his two-star dismissal forContinue reading “‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ A Perfect Satire Of Superhero Movies”

‘Malum’ Is Dumb

In one of his best stand-up routines, Eddie Murphy in Delirious discussed the problems with The Amityville Horror and Poltergeist. He also said white people always stay in haunted buildings, but black people would leave the minute they heard a scary voice. This inspired Jordan Peele to title his first movie as writer and directorContinue reading “‘Malum’ Is Dumb”

‘Babes’ Never Matures Past Infantile Uneven Plot

A movie like Babes could’ve been a great comedy. Unfortunately, first-time director Pamela Adlon doesn’t have the abilities to squeeze together a coherent story as leads Ilana Glazer (who-co-wrote this cringefest) and Michelle Buteau never really make themselves into likeable characters. Tommy Chong joked that when the production of their first movie Up in SmokeContinue reading “‘Babes’ Never Matures Past Infantile Uneven Plot”

OksWagen Held In Tahlequah

The VolksWagen automobile has been around since the late 1930s. The popularity has been associated with the Herbie the Love Bug movies, as well as the hippie counterculture movement (even though they weren’t too eco-friendly) and even as a popular game for long road trips. Who hasn’t played Punch Buggy on a road trip? OfContinue reading “OksWagen Held In Tahlequah”
