STREAM QUEEN: zomvamps, a dream boogeyman, and killer cowboys
Two out of three ain’t bad in this triple feature of newer streaming titles. So let’s find out which I felt was the odd man out. DAYLIGHT’S END (2016) The original I Am Legend was the beginning of a tradition … Continue reading
I can’t keep the truth hidden any longer
You know my basic belief—90s sequels destroy 80s classics. Well, revisiting The Hidden movies challenged everything I thought I believed…about the 90s and myself. THE HIDDEN (1987) In my mind this is one of the classics my favorite decade—just like … Continue reading
