Days 16, 17, & 18 – Hot Springs National Park

This is the home stretch. Hot Springs National Park in Hot Springs, AR was the last park we would visit on our trip. First though, we needed to cross Texas. We stopped at a couple of KOAs as we made our way back East. Frankly, we were thrilled to leave Texas. Hot Springs was a beautiful city and we were just so happy to…

Halloween Ends (2022)

Does it end, though? Does it really? They keep making these movies and I don’t think they know what the word actually means. It never ends! I don’t know if it was because Halloween Kills was kind of awful or I was caught completely off guard, but this movie really amazed me. I am not going to say it was the best thing ever,…

Days 14 & 15 – The Drive-Thru

Dave became very concerned about the condition of the truck's tires and since we'd be in remote locations the next couple of days, he finally made the decision that we needed to…

Barbarian (2022)

Will someone please tell these people to stop going down dark passageways without proper lighting and backup? This is America and you should be packing heat when you go into the basement. I'm not going to go into details here, because the movie is best observed through an unspoiled lens. I will say that this is a masterfully crafted horror film with the perfect…

Is she in danger or just paranoid? Francis is the idiot husband who works long hours and doesn’t believe Julia is a target. As the audience, we’re on Julia’s side, but it’s not always clear…

The Brood (1979)

It’s bonkers how this movie has passed me by all these years. David Cronenberg wrote and directed this nightmare of a film about a father, Frank, who is trying to protect his daughter from the mentally ill wife/mother, Nola. Everything seems pretty normal until the impish deformed children show up and it is revealed that they are the demon spawn manifestations of Nola’s anger.…
