SciFridays: “Grave Encounters 2” (2012)

Baddie: Ghosts of patients, and maybe weird doctors, but definitely of angsty filmmakers. Lesson: Procrastination is literally the devil. Just finish things. It’s better. Feel free to tweet me any questions, recommendations, comments, compliments, whatever! Really, I just like the attention.  I miss Octoberween already. I don’t normally do sequels. Not intentionally. I have, however, heard a…

SciFridays: “Prey” (2010)

Baddie: Pollution! Lesson: Business. Is it worth your entire family? Originally, I selected this movie to be part of Octoberween’s festivities, thinking it was an Australian horror. SURPRISE! This movie is in French. Yeah I don’t know. I just wiki’d ‘Australian Horror’ and was assured that this was an Australian film, but I guess that…

SciSunday: Ender’s Game

Let me get one thing out of the way: I did not read Ender’s Game as a child. I have not worshipped its brilliance for years and pined for a movie while waiting anxiously for a fair treatment of the content. I read Ender’s Game this week, and I finished it within 24 hours of…

SciFridays: “Needle” (2010)

Baddie: The French! Lesson: If someone is murdering your friends and you don’t know who the murderer is, it’s probably you. OR IS IT. I KNOW, it’s November. Technically. I actually scheduled this thing to post at 11:59 so it would count for Octoberween, because, y’know, I like Octoberween. I’m gonna miss it. Next week,…

Octoberween Team-Up: The Human Centipede

Baddie: Stranger danger! Lesson: Never go abroad. Never poop. James here. The time has come. The stars are aligned. We have broken the final seal. It is Halloween. Today. Right now. Unless you’re reading this, like, in November. But we’re posting it on Hallow—goddamnit, the moment’s gone. Anyway, Sarah and I are joining forces this…

SciFridays: “The Ruins” (2008)

Baddie: Carnivorous plants. Lesson: It could be life saving to learn some vocabulary for the country you’ll be visiting. So, to be fair, I’m not reviewing the movie I -wanted- to review. That movie is called Prey, or sometimes, The Outback: Dreamtime’s Over depending on what country you’re in. As you’ll see in November, I’ve…
