Only a whisper behind my love of books is my love for horror movies. Horror and I have a long history. As an older millennial, I have been privileged to experience the shift from VHS to DVD rentals. To the rise of Blu-Ray. Netflix sending movies straight to your door.…

So, look, this adaptation of Jekyll & Hyde is definitely not as bad as I thought it was going to be. It has a lot of major players here! Tracy, Turner, and Bergman. That is some star power! That said, this is an outright remake of the 1931 film, with…

So, I haven’t exactly been watching too many movies within the last 2-3 weeks. You know how readers fall into reading slumps? I think I fell into a movie/watching slump. I have been trying to motivate myself over the last week, intending to sit down and watch a few movies…

So, I fell asleep. On the couch. Sitting up. Clutching the remote. When I jolted awake, I remembered that I had plans to write a post tonight. So, here I am. Hey, did you know I like reading? It’s true! Reading is kind of a big deal to me. It’s…

I have way too many comfort movies. There is no way for me to list the many, many movies I have watched to the point of memorization. I swear, there is a button in my brain. When that button is activated, whatever is in my line of vision at the…

Is it too soon to revisit our misguided friend Dr. Jekyll? I think it might be too soon. You see, I had expected to watch a different adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel, wait a week or two while I gathered my thoughts, and post something completely unrelated to this…
