Another classic film brought to me by the 101 Horror Movies book. Once again, we are referring to the original of course, not the remake from 2006. All I can remember about that one is that it had Liev Schreiber, and I remembered I didn’t care for it. The original however, still gets the job…

Sue’s Series Squawk – Once Upon A Time (Season One)
What a wonderfully delightful surprise THIS charming series ended up being! In my mind, I’d signed up for it and Grimm as soon as I heard about them, but I was vaguely certain that I would prefer Grimm’s darkness to OUAT’s charm in the end. How wrong I was! I think I was in…
Jaws (1975)
I love this movie so much, thank you for making it Mr. Spielberg! The music, the dialogue, the moments, the sheer fun! But if you’ve been to the blog before, you know that, it’s my all time favorite movie, and the first one I ever saw. So obviously when it came along on the list…
Game of Thrones S02 E09 – Blackwater
From the moment I reached this point in Clash of Kings, I have been waiting to see the adaptation of it in the television series on HBO’s Game of Thrones. I was further delighted to see that George R.R. Martin, the author of the series, the man who can kill your favorite characters indiscriminately, wrote…
The Killing – Day 23 – 72 Hours
Wow. This episode, I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat for parts of it, and by the time the familiar tension-building, end-coming theme music came on, I was cursing how very wired and awake I was! So great! Some spoilers below, so don’t read if you haven’t seen it yet and…
Profondo Rosso (1975)
Translated as Deep Red, Profondo Rosso sees famed Italian director Dario Argento join the list of required viewing for the 101 Horror Movies. Before getting into the film itself, let me just say, I loved the score by Giorgio Gaslini and the group Goblin. It’s been a long time since I watched an Argento movie,…
Continuum – S01 E01 A Stitch In Time
Tonight Showcase brings us its summer sci-fi show Continuum, scheduled to run for 10 episodes, it tells the story of a group of terrorists as well as protector (read as police officer) from the year 2077 who get thrown back in time to 2012 Vancouver. The terrorists are planning to use this escape to…
Sue’s Series Squawk – Grimm (Season 1)
I’ve decided that – since I can’t possibly write everything I want to about every TV series that I want to – I will try to at least talk about each one randomly throughout their seasons. Or, in many cases for now, over their summer hiatuses. Haiti? Hait-eye? Summer breaks. This little post is…
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
The 101 Horror Movies is really kicking into high gear as I come across films I’ve never heard of, like Deathdream, to classics I’ve seen a couple of times, like this film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre from 1974. Now say what you will about remakes and reboots, sometimes they work, and sometimes they don’t, but…
Continuum – Meet Travis Verta
Travis Verta is one of the members of the terrorist organization known as Liber8 that made their escape from the year 2077 back to 2012, inadvertently dragging CPS Protector Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols) with them. Now, hiding out in the early 21st century, Travis and his fellows are recruiting, expanding, and planning to change their…
