Sounds like she could have a lucrative career writing song titles for post-rock bands. ZING! I'll show myself out.

Angelo Badalmenti's music has always been ace, and it's nice that it's being featured a little more prominently (the scattered jazz of the Mitchum brothers scene as they're musing about Dougie's 'link' to their insurance claim was particularly good).

I guess if it's built using three alarm clocks instead of hearts…? I don't know, I'm not a scientist!

I don't give a shit about gender; make the new Doctor a ROBOT!

Is MOON KNIGHT in it? One can dream!

Although this show in undeniably balls, I'm finding it enjoyable to watch just to see what dunderheaded thing the characters do next. When the dad says "I need all my fuel to search for my son" why didn't someone say "He could actually be at the mall!" (even though it'd be a lie, but that's what I'd say if I was

Hahaha that's genius!

Or maybe she wishes that she/her dad never found the box, and somehow everyone who watched the movie gets two hours of their life back, this review disappears and we all forget we made these comments…!

They're starting to become a guilty pleasure for me, or at least a movie for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Part of me is appalled nonsense like this exists, but then I figure if it gets some tweens into horror, and then they start to find out about older stuff (eg. Stuart Gordon/Brian Yuzna) then I guess I can tolerate

I understand the main character in this actively wishes for her to die, but the box somehow manages to shrug and do nothing.

See, the 'lit on fire' would be like WISH UPON, ie a literal version. I mean as in the genie/evil force mishears the wish. Grisly hilarity ensues!

I'd like to see a horror movie about wishes being granted based on that old joke with the punchline "You didn't think I really asked for a twelve-inch PIANIST, did you?"

A not-unrelated tangent: I've been playing a lot of SECRET WORLD LEGENDS and one thing I really like about that is there are Investigation missions, which typically involve doing pretty deep research online, sometimes via blogs/sites made up specifically for the game. I really, really like that Lynch and Frost have

I actually enjoyed things slowing down, as it lent a sense of coherence to things. Don't get me wrong - I really like the fact PREACHER can be tonally and genre-wise all over the place, because it means I never know quite what to expect (never read the comics :O ), but this episode gave every plot point room to

I thought/hoped MTV were being awful and going to run a series on supremely ugly people Catfishing others.

I thought it was a bit cheeky they've chopped a short 'prequel' film into four parts and labelled it a season. Having said that, it didn't detract from my enjoyment from it, once I realised it was all going to be set-up.

Anyone else a little disappointed that the "tumour-ridden, physically-deformed, monster" was a big bald guy with wonky teeth? Not scary enough, D-

Ruth and Debbie's moment at the end of the fundraiser did me in, I can tell you. It felt brutally honest and terribly, terribly real. I don't know if I'd want season two to get them back to being best mates again, because I don't see how realistic that would be, but hopefully it'd get them back to being able to have a

My thoughts exactly. I'm enjoying this a lot more than I thought I would, in part because I'm still hoping-against-hope there are going to be actual monsters* in it (even if they end up being 'an' enemy rather than 'the' enemy) and because there's something a little off about how a lot of the people act in this.

Yeah! I always remember that one because it was so full-on "Ok, here's an actual DEMON" it gave me chills - all these shows that skirt around showing monstrous stuff, and/or do the whole "man is the REAL monster!' thing are fine, but sometimes I just want to have it 100% explicit that there is an ACTUAL monster.
