Anyone who reads my blog fairly regularly must have noticed that it has been pretty quiet around here lately. For that I am sorry. I really miss writing these posts, and I miss reading even more. I haven't been able to pick up a book in awhile. There is big news in my life these... Continue Reading →

Star Trek Vol 6: After Darkness by Mike Johnson
Star Trek Vol 6: After Darkness I really wish I had read the earlier volumes first. I loved both of the recent Star Trek movies and recently I found that they have a comic book series based off of them. When I saw this was going to follow the movie I thought it would be... Continue Reading →
Divergent by Veronica Roth
DivergentNormally I am not a big fan of YA. I read the Hunger games and really liked it so I try to keep an open mind and trust in my wife's judgement when picking up a YA title. I also like Dystopian style books so I was curious as to what this one was about... Continue Reading →
Halloween Hangover, and R.I.P. Wrap Up
The Halloween Hangover; this isn't because of having to much to drink the night before and now suffering from bad decisions.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)This movie seemed to start the big horror remake craze. Before this movie we hadn't had a remake of the big contemporary horror movie monsters like there are now.

Frdiay the 13th (2009)
Friday the 13th (2009)When this movie came out I was a little leery about another Friday the 13th movie. Sure the original ones were cheesy and ridiculous but that was the appeal. Later movies like Jason goes to Hell and Jason X were just bad movies. Needless to say I was afraid this was going... Continue Reading →
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)Welcome to Elm Street where the population continues to drop. I love this movie and the original because nothing is scarier than something that can get you in your dreams. When we sleep we can feel safe and relaxed, but what happens when your dreams turn against you? The concept... Continue Reading →
