Hemlock Grove – Season 3 [Review]

Hemlock Grove – Season 3 [Review]

TOTAL SCORE 21% We liked Hemlock Grove. We really did. The first season was a meandering hot mess of a story, this weird and protracted journey. It was about nihilism and loneliness, alienation and supernatural realism, and we loved it. The story sprawled out like an uncomfortable

God of Comics – IDW Publishing’s TMNT

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. TMNT. Turtles that are mutants, teenagers, and ninjas. Or heroes, if you live in the United Kingdom. Do they have something against ninja there? Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. Whatever. We know who the Turtles are. Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michaelangelo. There’s 

God of Comics – Ms. Marvel

God of Comics – Ms. Marvel

An interesting thing that happens when we remember the stories that influenced us as we figure ourselves out: we tend to remember the style of them instead of the substance. Style is simpler – it’s the razzle-dazzle, the special effects, the stuff that sticks with 

God of Comics – the Punisher

God of Comics – the Punisher

Movie Review – Dead Hooker in a Trunk

Movie Review – Dead Hooker in a Trunk

TOTAL SCORE 78% Dead Hooker in a Trunk. That’s a hell of an evocative title, especially considering the actual state of the hooker in question, but the events that whirl up around her make this trip worth it. Let us be straight, right from the start: 

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Blacklist

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Blacklist

There’s something to be said for James Spader. He’s an incredible actor who brings both a sense of joy and a sense of menace to his work. It’s always there, from Stargate to Boston Legal, this sense that he knows more than he’s letting on.

Mindful Trashy Television – How To Get Away With Murder
