The one place for FILM, MUSIC and LITERATURE
The Girl in Cabin 13 has a great storyline. Simple but very effective! It might not be very original and we have seen it all before but still, it’s a very frightening premise. We have this couple going off the some remote cabin far away from civilization to get away from it all. To get away from everyday life and to just relax free from social media and everything that makes ordinary day-to-day life ordinary....
I’m one of those who actually enjoyed David Lynch’s attempt at Dune from 1984. I know it does not stand in high esteem among most people but I never had a problem with it. I’ve even heard rumors that David Lynch wanted to take his name from it because it didn’t represent his vision. I would sure have wanted to see Jodorowsy’s Dune but in the meantime, I’ll settle for this. I recognize the story...
There were mainly two reasons that I decided to watch Exodus. First, the title. There’s got to be something special about a movie called Exodus. I’m not a particularly religious man but I know this story from the Old Testament pretty well and Old Testament stories are usually a pretty solid base for a story. The second thing is the cover art. If you have gotten as far as I have in the fine art...
Lucifer has a really strange concept. It’s basically about the Devil, the root of all evil proving that it’s not so at all. Every episode, at least in the earlier seasons started with the text that the Devil – Lucifer Morningstar, was tired of ruling in Hell and therefore had taken some vacation in Los Angeles. Where else you might ask? At first, he’s only there to party, have lots of sex and drugs, and...
First of all, The Demented isn’t a film for everyone. If you are offended by sexual themes including sexual violence and torture maybe you should stop reading now. The Demented is made as a comment on the thousands of people going missing each day in the world. There are some figures at the beginning of the film about how many missing people are found alive. How many are found dead and how many that aren’t...
I had no real expectations when I started to listen to I Found the Sun Again. I knew who Steve Lukather was. No real in-depth information but I basically knew who he was. My experience with Toto is pretty limited, I mainly know the hits, Hold the Line and Africa. To tell you the truth I didn’t even think about that sound until I started listening to I Found the Sun Again. Let me tell...
The Sadness is a horror film that has been much debated on social media recently. I have seen it claimed to be the best horror movie ever by some people. At the same time, other seem to think that it’s the worst thing that happened to horror movies in ages. Of course, I couldn’t get away from the urge to see it for myself av make up my own mind about it. Let’s see if...
Squid Game has taken the world by storm. I think that it has also paved the way for some other South Korean or even Asian series as a whole into the western world. Now, South Korean cinema is not so different from western, and American movies. Apart from the language of course. There are other countries in Asia, especially Japan where the culture is way different and usually comes up with really crazy stuff. I...
Brimstone Incorporated was sent to me just like the director James L. Edwards previous film – Her Name Was Christa. Since I saw the latter one first I thought I had a pretty good idea about the style of this one. Well, I was partly right I think. The style is recognizable but it seems like Brimstone Incorporated had a much larger budget to work with. At least in the special effects department. There are...
I got a message from Freddy Marshall the other day asking me to check out Old Rockers Never Die as it was hard and heavy. Now, I don’t necessarily need hard and heavy to like music or an album. At least not these days, I’ve become very eclectic with the years. But anyway, Old Rockers Never Die is definitely both hard and heavy. And, I like it! The cover art is very strange. You have...
Too mean to Die might not have the coolest cover art ever but it might very well be the best album ever from the German rockers! Nowadays there’s really only one original member in the band since Peter Baltes stepped down the Bass duties a couple of years ago. I couldn’t tell anyway, it’s as good, melodic, aggressive, and energetic as ever. They have also added another guitar. So, just like Iron Maiden, they now...
On the cover art of Megaboa, there’s one name and that’s Eric Roberts. That ought to tell you two things. First, of all, he’s the only actor in the movie that has some kind of big attracting name. And Second, the movie probably won’t be much good since his name is seldom associated with quality films these days. An third, well, there actually is a third thing you should realize – He won’t have very...
