Mute – A Movie Review
Mute is a sequel of sorts to Moon, which you may remember I enjoyed quite a bit. Ducan Jones wrote and directed both, so it makes sense that they exist in a shared reality. I have to admit that I did not enjoy Mute nearly as much as Moon. Mute has a run-time of two…

Knives Out – A Movie Review
I saw this quite a while ago but never got around to reviewing it. However, now that I see it is available on demand, and because quite a few of us have a lot of extra time on our hands, I thought I’d share my thoughts. First of all, if you’re looking for a compelling…

Netflix’s Tiger King – A Few (Introductory) Thoughts
I’ve seen a LOT online about a documentary on Netflix called Tiger King. Even so, when I would notice the “poster” on Netflix, I always thought it looked ridiculous. It appeared as some sort of a mockumentary–I assumed it couldn’t be real. However, I listen to a radio program called The Dan LeBatard Show with…

Netflix’s Dracula – A Few Thoughts
I watched this show on Netflix in early January when it debuted. It had two things going for it that definitely got my attention. First of all, it looked to be dealing with the real Dracula–Bram Stoker’s Dracula–my Dracula. Secondly, it was created and written by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, the talented creators behind…

Netflix’s Locke & Key – A Few Thoughts
I’m a big fan of IDW’s series entitled Locke & Key. Written by Joe Hill (son of Stephen King), this title was a little bit horror, a little bit fantasy, a little bit family saga, and a whole lot of charm. Besides the captivating writing, it also benefited from a nice blend of the cartoonish…

Moon – A Movie Review
I’ve been meaning to watch Moon for a really, really long time. (After all, it came out in 2009.) For some reason, I never knew quite enough about it to warrant devoting an entire evening. Recently, I saw a list of the top science fiction movies on Netflix. I can’t remember what website I saw…
