After reading Erin’s article “The Magical Creature David Anders” I started thinking about the character Anders played on Alias. While I didn’t watch the show something about the character’s description sounded familiar. During the summer my library hosted a live chat/interview with Javier Grillo-Marxuach and he talked to us about his work as a screen writer and the different shows he’s worked for. At one point he mentioned creating a character for Alias that was only going to be in one episode, but to his surprise, especially since he wasn’t writing for the show anymore, kept appearing in episodes. Once I started thinking about Grillo-Marxuach I realized that I had the perfect topic for an article. Today I am going to share the good news about The Middleman with all of you.

I have always enjoyed Halloween. All the decorations, costumes, candy, haunted houses and corn mazes were and still are thrilling. Sometimes though I need a little help to get in that Halloween spirit, or maybe I just want a good scare and that’s where scary movies come in to this. I thought at first that I’d just share a few of my favorites, then I thought there were more great movies out there so perhaps a top ten or fifteen list. I compiled my movies, added in ones I had forgotten and now my ghoulish friends I can tell you that this list has reached FIFTY epic Halloween movies that range over fifty years of cinema making. None of these are remakes unless there was an original made before 1960 or from an television show and I also did not include any sequels. I have ordered them in four categories: Fun, Halloween themed, Classics, and Scary. I guarantee they’ll all make you enjoy All Hallows Eve a little bit more.

Supernatural has been a powerful force in the battle against depression and suicide.

Through his campaign, he has helped so many people battle their mental illness. It is truly inspiring. Continue reading “The Power of Supernatural”
American Horror Story: Hotel has finally arrived and the extra long pilot episode, Checking In, did not disappoint. Two lovely Swedish tourists arrive at The Hotel Cortez and meet with the scariest thing you can ever find in a mattress, and I’m not talking bedbugs. Pop goes the Mattress Man and out run our girls! Only problem, once you check-in, there’s no checking out. With a crazy intense introduction to the Hotel, I’m going to keep it capitalized since it’s the title of the season, we jump to a graphic murder scene. Imagine the murderer from the movie Seven liked reading Fifty Shades of Gray in his down time and you’ve got the general idea. Continue reading “Better Call Housekeeping, This Is Going to Get Messy”
Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Step right up and see the wonders of Fraulein Elsa’s Cabinet of Curiosities! It will amaze and astound you like nothing you’ve ever seen before, well unless you’ve already seen this season. Tonight is the premiere episode of the fifth season of American Horror Story and I thought before we check into Hotel with Lady Gaga that we should take in a bit of the old Freak Show, especially since the series just came out on dvd and blu-ray this week. Continue reading “A Little Trip to The Freak Show Before You Check In”
Tuesday marked the first night of a three week Scream Queens Halloween event. I was super excited about because I always enjoy Ryan Murphy’s Halloween episodes in American Horror Story. The episode, Haunted House, starts off with the introduction of Chanel’s “philanthropic” outreach to poor and less attractive girls. Continue reading “Chanel-o-Ween and the Joy of Scaring”
This Tuesday the episode of Scream Queens, Chainsaw, aired on Fox. I really wish this show weren’t on at the exact same time as iZombie because I know a lot of iZombie fans are really interested in it. I guess this is why dvr and the internet exist. Reader beware you’re in for some spoilers. Continue reading “Sorority Sisters, Red Devils, and A Quick Check-In to Hotel”
Today is a big day for iZombie fans, we are just one week away from the start of season two and the first season is now out on dvd. If you haven’t watched the series yet, this is the perfect time to binge it. You can totally finish the whole season in a day, if you try really hard. With a week until season two, you have plenty of time to get caught up if you don’t want to do a one day binge-a-thon. For those of you dedicated fans who have already watched the first season numerous times, the dvd release will make bingeing it whenever you want even easier. I was able to watch the dvds a bit early, all thanks to my job at a video store, and thought I’d share what I thought of the dvds and their special features. Continue reading “Some Info to Feed Your Brain Before You Buy iZombie on DVD”
