[Review]—Halloween Ends: The Official Movie Novelization

I spent the early morning hours on this All Hallows Eve reading Halloween Ends: The Official Movie Novelization, written by Paul Brad Logan—based on the screenplay he wrote with Chris Bernier, Danny McBride, and David Gordon Green. Critics, moviegoers, and horror fans all hated Halloween Ends—the ostensibly last entry in the Halloween franchise; it isn't since the rights will revert to Malek Akkad—we all know Michael Myers will never die—except in this film. I wasn't going to say anything about the movie, but after reading a few too many rants from purported fans complaining that it wasn't the "finale" they wanted, I felt compelled to do so. I loved Halloween Ends—there, I said it—and it's my favorite of the new trilogy.

[Review]—"Barnabas, Quentin and the Mummy's Curse" is a Scareless Mummified Tale

Finally, here it is—my final Dark Shadows review—Barnabas, Quentin and the Mummy's Curse. No, this wasn't the last of Daniel Ross's novellas—written under his wife Marilyn's name—as it is only the sixteenth book in the thirty-two-book series, which does not include the novelization of House of Dark Shadows. You could ask, "Why not read the remainder of the series?" It's a simple answer—Amazon only has thirteen titles among the first sixteen books on Kindle.

[Review]—The Historical Epic "Medieval" is Just Bloody Mayhem

The historical epic Medieval, directed by Petr Jákl of the Czech Republic, will have its digital premiere on October 25 through Paramount Pictures Home Entertainment; a Blu-ray and DVD release are scheduled for December 6. Last month, The Avenue distributed the movie, which was made by WOG FILM s.r.o., to a select number of cinemas. It stars Ben Foster, Sophie Lowe, Michael Caine, Til Schweiger, William Moseley, and Matthew Goode. The film is rated R for strong and grisly violent content throughout and some nudity.
