Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw – A Book Review
I know we’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but I absolutely grabbed Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw off of the shelf at my local library because its cover jumped out at me. Also, it’s very thin–just 124 pages–and I’ve been on a novella kick of late. In my opinion,…

Hunger Pangs: A Short Story
“Pfwahh. Errh Brohtt ahhr ummk.” “Gwaack, Hurmph! Rrerrm ibb fwapt.” Oh. I’m sorry. How rude. You don’t speak Zombie, of course. I’ll just have to narrate this little tale for you, then.

Love, Lies, and Pumpkin Pies: A Short Story

Netflix’s Red Notice – A Movie Review
Red Notice felt very much like the excuse we needed to get Dwyane Johnson, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds together in a movie. It’s not especially good, but it’s fun to watch the three of these stars work together, so there you go. Oh. I guess you need a bit more than that, huh? Okay,…

Eternals – A Movie Review
Let’s get right down to it – this movie is far better than the critics would have you believe. Is it a touch too long? For sure. Is it a tad melodramatic at times? Most definitely. However, knowing what I know about Eternals from the comic books, I told people not to expect Avengers or…

Netflix’s Army Of Thieves – A Movie Review
Remember when Army Of the Dead came out and then, within days, it was revealed that another movie featuring Dieter was currently in the works? Dieter’s film would be the beginning of a shared universe built around Army Of the Dead. I remember wondering why they would start this endeavor with Dieter the safecracker. Sure,…
