The Walking Dead Season 3 Week 1: Blossoming Love During the Zombie Apocalypse

October 17, 2012August 14, 2013 Derek

The one takeaway that I got from the season premiere of The Walking Dead was that love was definitely in the air. The slow build continues for Carol and Darryl as the twosome have gone from an icky mother/son vibe to something playful and flirty that doesn’t skeeve me out. Then there is the budding May/December romance between tweenager Carl and teenager Beth. Despite their difference in ages (he’s 13 and she’s 16 I think) the two of them were making googoo eyes at one another all episode even causing Herschel’s protective father radar to go off. Finally we had … Continue reading The Walking Dead Season 3 Week 1: Blossoming Love During the Zombie Apocalypse

The First 5 minutes of American Horror Story: Asylum

October 10, 2012August 14, 2013 Derek

I cannot wait for October 17th! As uneven as the first season of American Horror Story was, it was also one of the most satisfyingly creepy shows to ever appear on commercial television. And Jessica Lange was all sorts of amazing as the wacked out neighbor from hell so I am really curious to see what she does with the role of a nun from…well also from hell. So click the image to see the video and enjoy bad things happening to the lead singer of Maroon 5. Continue reading The First 5 minutes of American Horror Story: Asylum

Whatever Happened To…The Kids From Stephen King’s It?

September 9, 2012July 13, 2016 Derek

One of my favorite horror movies (based on the best book Stephen King has ever written in my humble opinion) is the made for TV mini-series IT. While the standout of the movie is the great performance of Tim Curry as Pennywise the evil clown that plagues the town of Derry, Maine, the other big selling point of the film is the portion that is set in the characters past. In this half of the film a group of outcast kids do battle with Pennywise and the kid actors all delivered amazing performances. So it got me to thinking…what the hell have those kids been up to since they all starred in this movie?

Good, Bad & Ugly Review: Piranha 3DD

June 10, 2012June 22, 2013 Derek

Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 12% (Critics) / 32% (Audience)
Directed By: John Gulager
Written By: Marcus Dunstan, Patrick Melton and Joel Soisson
Starring: Danielle Panabaker, David Hasselhoff, Matt Bush and Ving Rhames
Studio: The Weinstein Co.

Synopsis: After the terror unleashed on Lake Victoria in Piranha 3D, the pre-historic school of blood thirsty piranhas are back. This time, no one is safe from the flesh eating fish as they sink their razor sharp teeth into the visitors of summer’s best attraction, The Big Wet Water Park. Christopher Lloyd reprises his role as the eccentric piranha expert with survivor Paul Scheer and a partially devoured Ving Rhames back for more fish frenzy. David Hasselhoff trades in the sandy beaches of “Baywatch” to be a celebrity lifeguard at the racy water park. Prepare for double the terror, double the action and double the D’s in this sequel also starring Gary Busey, Katrina Bowden, Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Chris Zylka and David Koechner.
