House At The End Of The Street Review

House at the End of the Street is a thoroughly awful and unpleasant horror film, one that attempts to affect its unlucky audience by trading in abuse, sadism, and general human misery. It is a dreadful experience.

Trouble With The Curve Review

Trouble With The Curve is a wonderful father/daughter story, bolstered by terrific performances from Adams and Eastwood. Perhaps not one of the very best films of the year, but a personal sentimental favorite.

After two generally excellent installments, the seventh series of Doctor Who fumbles a bit with the messy, underwhelming A Town Called Mercy. This is not a bad episode by any stretch of the imagination, with plenty of fun and dramatic elements worth admiring, but it also has its fair share of problems, issues the prevent the hour from achieving the greatness so often in its reach.
