Six Degrees Below Zero

Posted on November 30, 2022 by Nathan

I guess it’s the holiday season now, so whoop-de-doo and dickory-dotch, and here are some things that I watched. The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special – Like the movies, this special doesn’t take itself particularly seriously, but it does … Continue reading →

A Fiennes Dining Establishment

Posted on November 27, 2022 by Nathan

The Menu – I saw this at the theater on Thanksgiving with Beth and her Uncle John, and I guess it was kind of appropriate, being food-related and all. I’ve seen it described as a horror comedy, which works in … Continue reading →

The Art of Clowning

Posted on November 10, 2022 by Nathan

WARNING! SPOILERS! Terrifier 2 – This is one I saw at the theater. While the first movie was mostly just Art the Clown messing with and brutally murdering people, this one has a more involved story, although it still leaves a … Continue reading →

We Don’t Post About Bruno

Posted on November 5, 2022 by Nathan

Encanto – Since Beth usually just wants to watch Halloween and horror stuff in October, I thought of the one Disney Animation Studios film we hadn’t yet watched when November came along. This one seems to have been quite well-liked, … Continue reading →

Teeny Tiny Bat

Posted on November 1, 2022 by Nathan

Halloween has come and gone, and the Great Pumpkin never showed up. Does no one care about sincerity in pumpkin patches anymore? It’s all this commercial farming, I’m sure. Anyway, here are my thoughts on one thing I watched for … Continue reading →

I Guess You Can Kill the Boogeyman After All

Posted on October 16, 2022 by Nathan

I have three movie reviews this time, all of fairly new films, although that wasn’t really intentional. Two are relevant to the Halloween season and one not, and it should probably go without saying that there are SPOILERS for all … Continue reading →

Multiple Massacres

Posted on September 25, 2022 by Nathan

We’ve started watching horror movies for the spooky season. We watch horror at other times of year, too, but around now Beth likes to focus on them to the extent of anything else. Not that we’ve been watching all that … Continue reading →

The World First Spoke to Me in Sensurround

Posted on August 28, 2022 by Nathan

We haven’t really been watching a lot of movies recently, aside from the two Elvis ones. I can’t even remember how long ago it was we saw the first two on here; they’ve been sitting in a draft for a … Continue reading →

The Domain of the King

Posted on August 21, 2022 by Nathan

You may remember that Beth and I were watching all the Elvis movies in order, and I’d been writing about them in groups of three. But then it was a few months between seeing the seventh and eighth, and we … Continue reading →

Coming Out for Air

Posted on July 10, 2022 by Nathan

Luca – I feel like Pixar movies used to be more distinct from Disney animated features, and now it’s difficult to tell the difference. That both use computer animation for pretty much everything now doesn’t help. In this one, which … Continue reading →
