Unprofessional Snarky Movie Review

Like Dolce Bellezza, I’ve had a little trouble finishing books lately.  I’m actually reading three very good ones, but I have the attention span of a gnat these days. 
Maybe it’s spring fever.
Even movies have been unable to capture my undivided attention.  A few here and there, but last night, one had me from beginning to [...]

Unprofessional Snarky B-Movie Review-No Bimbos!

I’m watching The Descent.  Right now.  Seriously.  (BTW, I have a short, horror story that won a first place award by the same name.) Okay, I’m about halfway into the movie and I’m pretty freaked out.  Just got the first glimpse of what we’re dealing with creature-wise… oh yeah, baby.  Cool.

Unprofessional Snarky Book Review!

I enjoyed the book so much, I completely blew off my own work to finish it in a rush of excitement that had me tapping my foot on the floor and cheering the characters on out loud.  [...]

Unprofessional Snarky Movie Reviews

My sister came over with five scary movies.  Unfortunately, we only had time for two.  I picked the two she had not seen.  I was hoping we’d have time for American Haunting (she saw that one) as a third, but it’s a school night and the kiddies can only stay up so long despite the [...]
