NFL Power Rankings – Week 7

Its rare to have 2 undefeated teams after week 7. But, considering the Patiots 7 opponents have 12 wins between them and the 49ers 6 opponents have 11 wins total, its not that surprising. [table id=90 /]

It's Groundhog Day! Actually, it's college student Tree's (Jessica Rothe) birthday. She wakes up in a dorm room of a random guy and proceeds to have a mostly awful day, ending with her being murdered.

The Bye Bye Man (2017)

What's in a name? This movie explores the summoning power of words when three college kids, Elliot, Sasha, and John move into a spooky off-campus house and unknowingly unleash a supernatural serial killer called the Bye Bye Man. It's kind of like Candyman for a new era. What makes it interesting is the subtle scares and the psychological downward spiral of the characters. Is…

Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)

What the 1922 Nosferatu couldn't achieve due to the time period, this version does in spades. The 1979 German production directed by Werner Herzog takes the familiar story of Jonathan Harker (Bruno Ganz) and his quest to sell property to Count Dracula (Klaus Kinski) in Transylvania. This is the art house version of Bram Stoker's Dracula and it is masterfully done. Normally, I prefer…

Return of the Living Dead 3 (1993)

While this pretends to be a sequel and does employ the use of the trioxin gas that created zombies in the first two movies, there isn't much about this movie that makes it a worthy successor to the masterpiece Return of the Living Dead or the passable Return of the Living Dead Part II. The plot is fairly basic: an army brat named Curt…

Nosferatu (1922)

And now for something completely different. This is the classic unauthorized retelling of Bram Stoker's Dracula in silent film form. I can imagine this movie being quite amazing when it originally came out. This was all the people had and it probably freaked them out. The choppy, grainy, dirty, black and white visuals make it really hard to see what is going on half…

Parasite (1982)

About the only good thing about this pile of turd was that it was one of Demi Moore's first films. It's the future and things aren't so good. This doctor guy infects himself with a parasite to keep it out of the hands of an evil group that wants to use the parasite to do bad things. The hunt is on as the bad…
