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…
Game of Thrones S02 E07 & E08
As we know, things went sideways for me last week, so I didn’t have a chance to watch Game of Thrones until this evening, and watched both eps back to back again. To be honest, I almost prefer it this way, getting two hours of solid entertainment. Theon Greyjoy, having installed himself into Winterfell, wakes…
The Killing – Day 22 – Sayonara, Hiawatha
Before I begin gushing about how much Holder ROCKED this episode, let me attempt to talk about some of the other characters and moments I also loved! In no particular order, of course. Darren Richmond – he is really back on his political horse now, and so far looks to be somehow more able…
Hanging with Axel Foley
I revisited my old friend Axel Foley this weekend. In the 80s the first two were simply awesome, it’s just too bad that they made such a misstep with the 3rd film. The first film directed by Martin Brest, is Eddie Murphy at the height of his hilarity, but for all that, the film isn’t…
Deathdream (1974)
This is one of those small low budget horror movies that kind of gets lost in the shuffle, added to the fact that it has suffered a number of name changes as well, including Dead of Night, The Night Walk, and The Night Andy Came Home, it was really no wonder that I hadn’t even…
