I try to offer reviews covering a wide range of subject matters, from history to philosophy to literature to movies and music, but I especially love horror in all its forms and formats--from Gothic to traditional to modern. I also love fantasy and science fiction of all sorts. My degrees in economics and history profit me little, although I still maintain a deep interest in Southern US history.
I love to hear from fellow Amazonians of all sorts, especially book lovers, and remain ever on the prowl for new sources of reading, watching, and listening pleasure.
If you happen to notice any amazingly short paragraphs or seemingly incomprehensible segments in my reviews, please know that these are the result of often inexplicable and heavyhanded editing. I would never send a one-sentence paragraph out into the world.

Jekyll + Hyde serves up a gritty, twenty first century reenvisioning of the classic Robert Louis Stevenson novel about good and evil. Despite a lot of avant-garde cinematography, some decent acting, and a pretty kicking soundtrack, though, the film never quite makes it over the hump dividing the good from the mundane. It doesn't help that the story has been done to death throughout the decades of cinematic history.
Personally, I don't think anyone named Jekyll should be admitted to medical school - to me, that's just common sense. I don't think med students should be popping homemade pills all of the time, either, but that doesn't stop it from happening in this film. Anyway,… Lire la suite

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip ... Numbered among your castaways are a sailor, the skipper, a wealthy businessman, a professor, a female performer, a cute and mousy young woman, and - a writer. Oh well, you didn't think this was Gilligan's Island, did you? Nobody gets tired of coconut cream pies here because there is almost no food to be found on this deserted isle - nothing except great big mushrooms that thrive in the seemingly cursed environment. You don't want to eat these mushrooms, though, for this is the one place on earth where the old maxim "You are what you eat" is actually a truism.

I've seen several recent films based upon the lives of prolific serial killers ( Bundy, B.T.K., etc.), and none of them have been any good. Dahmer is no exception; in fact, it is worse than the others. I'm afraid I can't buy into any of the artsy-fartsy, pseudo-intellectual spin this film gets in some quarters. Quite frankly, all I saw was a really bad movie. I simply don't see how you can present any kind of story about Jeffrey Dahmer without at least alluding to the fact that the man freaking ate his victims. All the psychological nonsense… Lire la suite
