Where we suggest and review television, film, and music
It was December 15th, 2000. Hollywood was on a roll with raunchy comedies. American Pie had come out the year before, shocking audiences with its vulgarity and ushering prepubescent boys into manhood. The year 2000 brought us Road Trip and Scary Movie, and then, right before the end of the year, we got Dude, Where’s…
Last night, my girlfriend and I sat down to watch a horror movie. I’m always torn between wanting to show her a classic that I have seen that I feel she needs to or watching a newer one than neither of us either of us have seen. After watching some trailers for movies, like the…
I just started watching Juror #2. The Clint Eastwood-directed drama is now streaming on MAX and follows a juror in a trial who begins to second-guess a recent night of his. The film stars Nicholas Hoult, Toni Collette, J.K. Simmons, Chris Messina, Zoey Deutch, Cedric Yarbrough, and Kiefer Sutherland. It’s really cool to see Cedric…
Photo credit: Buddy Corona I have been a fan of Kyle Gallner forever. His acting career actually goes way back. I recently watched Veronica Mars for the first time, and he has a supporting role in that for a season or two. Of course, he winds up playing a psycho. He actually had a small…
My favorite band, Good Hangs, have just released a new EP titled, DO IT FOR DALE (hope my love will quit). The album and title track got it’s name from the guys finding out that Nascar Xfinity Series driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. had a few of their songs on his playlist. The North Carolina native…
A few weeks ago, Bon Iver teased something on Instagram that got a lot of people excited. Including myself. I first heard Bon Iver at a get together in college. I visited my friend at his school in New Hampshire and there was an option of Jack Daniels whiskey or marijuana. I was not a…
Happy October! The most wonderful time of the year. When the weather starts getting cooler and the lawns in your neighborhood start decorating for the best holiday of the year. I don’t know if I have ever actually watched a horror movie a day throughout the month of October. I have probably done it other…
It has happened to all of us. A favorite show of ours gets canceled. We don’t get the closure that we wanted. And I don’t know how old you are, but I grew up in the days of when a show is cancelled it wasn’t picked up by another network. Back in the day, you…
My girlfriend works in data and has started a newsletter where she takes a data approach to things she is interested in. Her first few were about concerts and her most recent one is all about Christmas Hallmark movies!

I am part of a Facebook group of (mostly retired) comedians who like to nerd out about video games, television shows, and movies. One of them, Roxanne Celeste, put together this advent style list of horror movies to watch throughout December. Because who says we have to stop watching horror after October 31st? Here is…
