Movies I’ve Seen
My Favorite Movies #96 – It
So we're clear, this is the recent, theatrical version of It, not the 1990 made-for-TV version. Sure, that movie terrified me as a child, but it's almost laughable to watch it now. Its only saving grace is Tim Curry's performance as Pennywise. It 2017 Directed by Andy Muschietti Netflix says... The horror thriller "IT", directed … Continue reading My Favorite Movies #96 – It

After Seeing Ready Player One
Ready Player One 2018 Directed by Steven Spielberg Kids, this is a movie I've been excited about since I saw the first trailer nearly a year ago. You know what did it?

Let that settle in. Some of you may be scoffing. Others may not even remember what Big is all about. … Continue reading A Strange Connection?

Strangers
There's a new slasher movie that came out recently called The Strangers: Prey at Night. It's a sequel to The Strangers, a film that came out 10 years ago. I went to see this new sequel today. Honestly, it wasn't great. And it was nowhere near as terrifying as the first one. I really need … Continue reading Strangers
