I quite enjoyed the Vicious Brothers previous efforts – Grave Encounters and Grave Encounters 2, and were curious how they took on subject matter that really unnerved me, so I dug into Extraterrestrial, which is currently available on VOD and iTunes, and had a look. Whereas with Grave Encounters I felt they took on…

Sue’s Series Squawk – Played
I haven’t had time to get caught up on my weekly TV-watching lately, so this week I am going to talk about just one show – the new series on CTV, Played. This series had my attention right off the bat because a) it’s a Back Alley Films/Muse Entertainment production, and after Bomb Girls,…
Dead Before Dawn 3D – April Mullen
Last night, at select theatres across Canada, the zemons arrived! Half zombie, half demon, this new brand of terror has slowly but surely been taking the world by storm, and last night, it was our turn. A homecoming, if you will, since the halfbreeds were essentially created right here in Canada – in Niagara…
Defiance S01E05 – The Serpent’s Egg
OK, first let’s clarify, apparently my numbers are off, I’m listing this as episode 5, because I saw the Pilot as one full ep, whereas according the episode listings it’s 6. There we go… Now on with the show. Justice seems to be at the heart of this week’s episode as one of the…
Defiance S01E04 – A Well Respected Man
I am loving this show, and I now know why Showcase didn’t send me the entire series in one go… because I would have watched them all in one sitting, and then a couple of days later, done it again and again. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows, I love the…
Bomb Girls – Don’t Let Go
On every occasion, Tim does the heartfelt and wonderfully-worded write-ups to each of our our beloved Bomb Girls episodes. So close to the end, now, I feel it is only proper that he should also do the final two posts of the series. However, upon learning yesterday that our girls will not see a Season…
Lost Girl S03E10 – Delinquents
After the middling affair of the Ceremony last week, I still think there are lots of layers that can be found in it, but it wasn’t my favorite episode of the season, Lost Girl brought in the heartbreak, the set-up and the guest cast and crew! Scripted by Lost Girl’s creator Michelle Lovretta, directed by…
Current TV Shows I Most Enjoy – Part I
I was going to try and come up with a clever title or gimmick for this, like Sue’s Top 12 of 2012, or something. But I didn’t want to restrict myself with a number, and the fact is, one of the reasons we started the Mind Reels was because we felt that things we loved…
Trailer: Dead Before Dawn 3D
Mere months before we officially became the Mind Reels, Tim and I had the pleasure of spending a night on the set of the newest film from Team Wango, Dead Before Dawn 3D. It’s Canada’s First live action 3D film, and is helmed by the first woman to undertake such a task, our lovely…
Breakfast with Tim & April Part 2
So back in December Sue and I sat down with our good friends, and wicked awesome filmmakers Tim Dorion and April Mullen. We cut the interview in half because we wanted to save half of the interview for when the ball got really rolling on their latest film Dead Before Dawn 3D. After a very…
