Why they decided to adapt this horrible two-part episode of Battlestar Galactica to novel form is beyond me. It was a low point for the series that this story was made, it just makes matters worse to put it out in print as well. On top of that Goulart doesn’t get Starbuck. He comes across…

Millennium (1998) – …Thirteen Years Later, and Skull and Bones
Micheal R. Perry pens the fiftieth episode of Millennium that feels like it riffs a bit on the whole meta horror movie serial killer theme revolutionised a few years earlier by Wes Craven’s film Scream. Airing on 30 October, 1998, the episode was another Halloween episode. This time around, Frank (Lance Henriksen) finds himself mired…
Legion(2010) – Scott Stewart
More heavenly trouble arises in the next title up in DK Canada’s oh so enjoyable, Monsters in the Movies. This time, hell comes to Earth, as an apocalypse is brought about by a war within the ranks of god’s army over the fate of humanity. That just gets my mind churning, so allow me this…

Star Trek: Discovery (2017) – Choose Your Pain, and Lethe
Captain’s log: December 2256 Kemp Powers pens the teleplay for Choose Your Pain from a story by Gretchen J. Berg, Aaron Harberts and Kemp. It first aired on 15 October, 2017, and sees a familiar character return to this version of the Trek Universe. While Micheal Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) starts to worry about the pain…
The Hunt For Red October – 30th Anniversary Edition
Somehow the film adaptation of Tom Clancy’s The Hunt For Red October is thirty years old and has garnered an anniversary Blu-ray 4K release from Paramount Pictures. That number just seems off, because thirty years seems like a fairly long time ago, and that doesn’t seem right. The original novel came out in 1984, and…
Moonlighting (1985) – Gunfight at the So-So Corral, and Read the Mind… See the Movie
Maddie’s (Cybill Shepherd) first full day at the Blue Moon Detective Agency office doesn’t go as well as she hopes in the first episode this week. Written by Micheal Petryni, Gunfight at the So-So Corral, the first episode after the pilot, debuted on 5 March, 1985. When the office is slow, David Addison (Bruce Willis)…
Mary Poppins Returns (2018) – Blu-Ray Review
The Oscar nominated Mary Poppins Returns comes home on blu-ray and DVD today from Disney. Marrying the nostalgia of the original film, released some fifty-four years ago, with a poignant and emotional new story, the character comes back to the big screen (and now home) with the wonderful Emily Blunt stepping comfortably and confidently into…
Underworld (2003) – Len Wiseman
Kate Beckinsale kicks ass and looks stunning doing it as she plays Selene, a death dealer, or vampire, in Underworld, the next recommendation from DK Canada’s highly enjoyable Monsters in the Movies by legendary director, John Landis. There has been a war raging around humanity for centuries as vampires and werewolves, or death dealers and…
The Lost Boys (1987) – Joel Schumacher
My trio of favorite vampire films is now complete with the viewing of 1987’s The Lost Boys. If Fright Night got me into horror movies, and Near Dark showed me how violent and bloody vampires could be, then The Lost Boys showed me how cool vampires could be (and how awesome the occasional vampire hunters…
