Baddie – Joss Whedon. Lesson – Don’t get attached. This is Week 2 of the pre-Evil Dead event. Yes, there are only two weeks. Yes, Evil Dead came out about an hour ago. Yes, I will see it tomorrow, so yes, you will have to wait until next Friday for the review. The Cabin in the…
Sorry about last week, kids. As many of know from my constant complaining, I’m a grad student, and sometimes that’s quite the timesuck. So, Episode 10’s recap will be short and sweet.

It has heavy religious notes and is drug suggestive. However, much like last week, the chick on the cover is never in the movie. Neither are those weird…
We’re more than halfway, folks! Episode 8 of the scheduled 15. Dare I venture to say that this is turning into quite the good show…? It still has a lot of faults, to be sure, but the things that I like about “The Following” are the choices they make to be unconventional. For example, this…
