I disagree, the stories were some pretty interesting, all-over-the-place pop folk shit. Everything from ghosts to urban legends to shapeshifters to fairy tales to plain old murder. They run a nice gamut of spooky shit.

The Dream — scariest illustration ever.

It's just one little riff for 5 minutes, with a tacked-on string arrangement. Where did he get the idea they were trying to be "menacing?" I don't know, I find it kind of hypnotic for a radio single. There is so much worse shit out there than this, even from the same era. I mean it's no "Breakfast At Tiffany's" or…

Give me AnnaSophia Robb or give me death.

I checked, and it is. Oh fuck yeah

Is this the song with the bassline that goes "DERM. DERM. DERM. DERM. DERM. DERM. DERM. DER-BA-DER-BA" for 7 minutes? That's the shit.

Let's riot until they change their minds.

Brick is like Bobby but obsessed with books instead of stand-up comedy.

This is the year of the Hecks. The show is now airing on ABC Family multiple times a day and churning out stronger work than ever. This season they'll finally break out of "underdog" status and maybe even garner an Emmy nomination or two.

I have a weird theory that the cast is just not "sexy" enough — Axl is the most conventionally good-looking, but he still resembles an average American boy. Eden Sher is naturally gorgeous, but allows herself to be uglied up for the part of Sue, to her everlasting credit.

The Middle has done what every good sitcom needs to do nowadays and built themselves a strong, deep bench of recurring bit players (I mean like Brad and Darrin and Jerry Van Dyke and Dave Foley and Brooke Shields; not Chris Kattan and Brian Doyle-Murray). This helps add to the versimilitude of the show and makes Orson…

If there is a common thread among her books, it's that most of them serve as excuses for her to sound off about whatever "controversial" issue she feels like.

You don't think the fact that Eva (SPOILERS) doesn't reveal that Franklin and Celia are dead the until the end counts as being unreliable?

I've read six of her books, and this one and Kevin are the only ones that have what you could call a "twist" at the end (Game Control almost counts if it weren't so telegraphed). The twist at the end of Big Brother is indeed godawful, especially since up to then it's by far the most upbeat thing she's ever written.…

The movie lets Eva off the hook easy, which the book never does. Kevin is a monster, end of story. Good casting though.

This is one of my favorite books ever, and it's a shame that Lynne Ramsay decided to reduce to basically one long montage.

The movie stopped just short of truly capturing the spirit of the strip. It bothers me that the first meeting between Harvey and Joyce is portrayed so coldly, with Harvey just blurting out "I had a vasectomy!" Whereas the equivalent scene in the comics just showed a wordless panel of the two of them sharing an…

The fears it preys on are almost all childhood fears. Facelessness, kidnapping, those fucking dogs. Makes sense why it's lost none of its power over the years.

That'd be Mike McCready, in full "shamelessly aping Hendrix" mode.

Sorry, but you're wrong. Music has only gotten worse with time.
