Satan vs. Godzilla

Posted on July 12, 2020 by

Hail Satan? – The decision to watch this on Friday wasn’t actually related to the fact that I recently wrote about Satanic panic and Satanic messages, although it was a fortuitous coincidence. Beth had been wanting to watch this for … Continue reading →

Sunrise, Sunset

Posted on April 26, 2020 by

Fiddler on the Roof – I’d been meaning to see this for some time, but the length put me off somewhat. I was familiar with some of the songs (and, in some cases, parodies of the songs), but not much … Continue reading →

An Automated Abomination

Posted on April 5, 2020 by

Orphan – I’m trying to avoid spoilers for this one, but you still might want to avoid it if this is something you haven’t seen and want to. Films about evil kids are a genre unto themselves. We just saw … Continue reading →

Posted on February 10, 2020 by

Close Encounters of the Third Kind – This is one of those movies I’ve seen so many references to that I kind of felt I should watch it. It actually came out the year I was born. Some explorers and … Continue reading →

Playing Ketchup

Posted on January 19, 2020 by

I haven’t had the chance to watch many movies recently, aside from the few I saw at the theater. I did watch one a month or so ago, and felt that my review wasn’t enough to merit a post, so … Continue reading →
