"Serenity" (2005)


In this feature-film spin off of Joss Whedon's short lived "Firefly" TV series, a crew of space pirates/mercenaries has to protect a young girl with unique powers from some very bad people. Lotsa action and the usual crackling Whedon dialogue.

I'd never seen "Firefly" but now that I've seen this cult flick, I am impressed enough to put the series on my "to check out sometime soon" list.

A SyFy double feature :


First The Mothman followed by the premiere of The Boogeyman,just about what you'd expect from a SyFy Channel feature film.

Happily Never After

"Repo Man" (1984)


Quirky, cult '80s comedy from Alex ("Sid and Nancy") Cox stars Emilio Estevez as a punk rocker who takes a job repossessing cars, and gets mixed up with government agents and other assorted freaks while searching for a car that has four dead extraterrestrials in the trunk.

Totally bizarre but entertaining flick with a killer soundtrack that includes Iggy Pop, Suicidal Tendencies, and the Circle Jerks!

Prior to seeing Serenity, I had never seen anything Joss Whedon had been involved in (aside from his almost completely butchered script to Alien Resurrection), I was so blown away by his writing and direction of Serenity that it inspired me to check out Firefly...then Buffy...then Angel...etc. He is now my favorite currently working genre writer and I think one of the most unique talents in Hollywood.

I started on the second season of 'Episodes' on Showtime. Funny, funny stuff.

"Apollo 18" (2011)


Faux-documentary "found footage" horror flick purported to be filmed during a doomed 1974 hush-hush secret mission to the moon, where the astronauts encounter something nasty on the lunar surface and it all ends badly.

Basically a sci-fi twist on the "Blair Witch" formula, this flick started off slow but when it finally started kicking into high gear I actually jumped a couple of times. Better than expected.

I watched Bloodsport tonight.

One Man Gang and Rick Rude vs Bruiser Brody and The Missing Link.

Sad that the only man still alive from this match is OMG.

Finished Game of Thrones Season 2 last night. Now the long wait for season 3 begins!

Just watched w/my 9 year old...

"Air Bud: Golden Receiver"


After mastering basketball in the first "Air Bud," the heroic Golden Retriever discovers that he has a talent for football in this sequel. Naturally, since this is a Disney movie, he joins his owner's (losing) school football team and helps them make it to the state playoffs, but some creepy animal thieves are lurking in the wings, hoping to steal Bud and make him the headlining act of their traveling animal circus.

Fun for kids, relatively painless for parents.

...but I'm gonna have to watch something gory and violent later tonight to counteract all the sweetness in this flick!
