Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1913)
So, as it turns out, I had to go backward because I came across another silent adaptation starring our good friend(s?) Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Just shy of 30 minutes long, nothing deviates too far from what we’ve already seen in our Jekyll & Hyde movies. Like the previous version I watched (and loathed),… Continue reading

It Started with a Nightmare
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.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1955)
I hated this so much. Let me start at the beginning. There was another televised version – 1950, United Kingdom – that I tried to find with no luck, so I was forced to abandon my search and move on to the next. I don’t know what could have been. I want to believe that… Continue reading

Procrastinating
It is currently 8:04 pm EST. I had plans to watch the next Jekyll & Hyde film from the 1940s. I am stalling so hard right now.

I have been trying to motivate myself over the last week, intending to sit down and watch a few movies after work. Each day, I… Continue reading

5 Random Rules
At some point in my years on this earth, I established rules I didn’t realize I was establishing, and I follow them to a fault. I was alerted to this fact one night in the recent past, when I attempted to stray from the rules only to hit a wall. All I can say is,… Continue reading

Yes, No, or Maybe (Movie Roundup Edition)
Dudes, I’m tired. I was up way too early, and have been on the go all day. Breakfast. Store. Another store. Chiropractor. Another store. Then I got really sleepy, followed by a burst of energy that prompted me to work it out by dancing to whatever popped up on my playlist. Now that the bubble… Continue reading
