YouTube-The tricks that make slasher films look real
Hold on! Wait a minute! According to this short video on the making of horror movies, I just discovered that they’re not real. What? Collapsing knives? That was hard to see. That blew my mind — even more, rubber knives. I can’t look Michael Myers in the eyes anymore. Don’t get me started on the…

Movie Review – Clifford the Big Red Dog
—
This was a delightful movie. It’s sweet and funny with a terrific message for kids and adults alike. I usually watch children’s movies with my granddaughter. I like getting her opinion on these movies but she’s in school so I was flying solo today. Luckily for me, I know without a doubt that children will…

Movie Review – Spencer
I must start this review by saying I am not an expert on the Royal Family. I’ve kept up with some of the highlights but history-wise, not so much. However, I can remember exactly where I was when I heard about Princess Diana’s death and I watched the wedding as a child. With that being…

Movie Review – Antlers
—
I’ve been seeing previews for Antlers for close to two years now. I’ve been waiting for its release for a very long time. My expectations were set very high and my excitement grew during those two years. (Yeah, another thing to thank Covid for.) Now I was sitting in the theater waiting for it to…

Movie Review – Last Night in Soho
—
Last Night in Soho blew me away. From the very first scene, I was captivated by Thomasin McKenzie. I first saw her in Jojo Rabbit — she was great in that – but she was stupendous in Soho. I’d label my reaction to her as mesmerized throughout the entire film. I want to see a lot…

Movie Review – Ron’s Gone Wrong
—
Ron’s Gone Wrong was a cute little film. It had a great moral to the story, which every child that has their own phone can certainly relate to. Social media has done wonders for communication but on the flip side, it’s so much easier now to bully. It happens every day and kids need to…

Movie Review – Halloween Kills
—
I’ve been waiting for Halloween Kills since Christmas. I love my horror flicks and walk into the theater giddy with excitement. So here’s my thought as the credits roll — they totally missed the boat. For one, if they followed the formula of the last thirteen, we would have seen drugs, sex, and naked bodies.…

Movie Review – Lamb
—
I battled with myself all night long on what I would and wouldn’t say about Lamb. It’s no secret that I have had issues with every single movie that A24 has done. If you are fans of A24 I will apologize ahead of time. The deciding factor as to which route I would take came…

Movie Review – The Addams Family 2
The Addams Family 2 was really cute. I grew up with the original television show and I have to say it’s quite different. I think they’ve done a good job of updating it to appeal to this generation of youths. There was a great moral to the story that was told well enough to where…

Movie Review – The Many Saints of Newark
—
Wow! What a movie. I was wondering if I would like it since I haven’t seen even one episode of The Sopranos. I can tell you what, that’s my next series to binge-watch! I have so many questions now that I’m considering canceling my weekend plans so I can watch them all. So for you…
