Where Are They Now – Detroit Lions

At the beginning of the season I took a look at how I thought the Lions season was going to go and made some predictions. We are now half way through and the Lions have next week off so I thought Id check back in with them.

The Watcher in the Woods (1980)

After about 20 minutes, I kind of wished I hadn't picked this movie to review. After the 1 hour and 20 minute runtime, I really wished this movie didn't exist. At least I got a little cat nap in there. The movie is made by Disney, so you know it's not going to be suspenseful or have any gore whatsoever. I had hoped it…

Due to Kay's vivid nightmares, she's not sure what is real and dangerous vs. what is part of her imagination. The movie was very close to being something worthy of your time, but failed…

Opera (1987)

I've always had a soft spot for Italian horror (a.k.a. giallo slasher) and world-renowned writer/director Dario Argento in particular. Not all his films are winners, but he has a real knack for setting up great shots and bringing all the elements together.

NFL Power Rankings – Week 8

Power rankings system devised and compiled weekly by Stemshul. “Expert” analysis by paradroid. It's time once again to take a look at Week 8's power rankings! Things are looking nicely symmetrical, with two teams (one from each conference) up top and two teams down in the F-tier. It'd be nice if it was one from each conference at the bottom as well, but it's…

The Burning (1981)

As far as Friday the 13th rip-offs go, this one is not that bad. Apparently, summer camp was the deadliest setting for carnage in the 1980s. This movie has a villain named Cropsy, a camp caretaker who was horribly disfigured from a fire accidentally started by a prank gone wrong. Those pesky campers! Flash forward five years and a new round of snot-nosed campers…
