DVD Review: Todd & The Book of Pure Evil – The Complete First Season


High School is Hell

by Kevin Gaussoin, Editor-in-Chief

Fifteen years ago, Buffy the Vampire Slayer premiered on television and the success of its seven seasons (or twelve if you include Angel) brought supernatural action drama into being, leading inevitably to today’s supernatural shows ranging from The Vampire Diaries, through Supernatural and Being Human, and into the occasionally-clothed and always sexy True Blood. But Buffy had a few things going for it that the others did not. Notably here are its clever and ubiquitous self-referential humor and perhaps most importantly here is that Buffy possessed something that most other supernatural shows never had. It was in the beginning set in one of the most frightening places on earth: High School.

Blu-ray Review: The Three Musketeers

As a relatively big fan of Milla Jovovich (The Fifth Element), I was eager to check out her and husband Paul W.S. Anderson’s (Resident Evil Series) take on the classic book by Alexandre Dumas. Would The Three Musketeers blast away the Disney version starring Charlie Sheen (pre winning era)? I popped in my Blu-ray to find out.

Blu-Ray Review: The Lion King 2 and 1 ½

by Guest Reviewer Chuck Lindas

When Disney’s The Lion King was released in 1994, a 15 year old version of me went to see it with my dad and little sister. Of course, we all loved it and sitting together as a family while the credits rolled, dad said, ever so prophetically, “That was really great and I appreciated it all the more, knowing that this will probably be the last gold old fashioned animated film for Disney.” Of course, he was entirely wrong. Disney has released nearly 20 classic animation features since then. In fairness to dear old dad, Toy Story was to come out the following year and rightly so was expected to completely alter the landscape of animated films.

TV Review: The Walking Dead – “Judge, Jury, Executioner”

by Matt Sernaker, Managing Editor

There are some major developments for characters and story lines (yes, they are still on the damn farm) but this episode takes us back to the quality that we had come to expect from early episodes of the series.
