  • 014_ George Romero's Day of the Dead

    Well, I thought I just hammer one more episode out there, rambling about my favorite Zombiefilm of all time. There is sometnhing special about this movie, that got me hooked. Yes there is the fantastic groundbreaking Night o.t.l. Dead and Dawn... But this one has a special place in my heart for just being unique from start to finish.

    The movie was got released in 1985. :-)... yeah, good old 80's

  • 013 - Divorce Rates - Failed Marriages

    Hey folkes,

    I stumbled across some interesting information regarding the divorce rate in the US and Germany, then reasons why. I basically focus here more or entirely on the women's decision, since most of them are the ones instigating the divorce. 

    Their reasoning why however, is a different case... Quite interesting and explosive stuff :-)

  • 012_Friday the 13th - Jason Goes to Hell

    Finally I got around this movie to talk about it. Jason Goes to Hell is one of my favorite horror films of the modern era. It has some great moments that still entertain me to this day, a great cast and really good special effects.

    I am not too blind on the issues the story brings to the table, the plot holes and the ending of the film.
    However if you take a step back and get rid of the typical backwood slasher theme that this movie is breaking almost entirely, then you can appreciate the movie for just being entirely different and very creative.

    Not a perfect film by any means, but not as bad as most fans claim it to be.

  • 011_Masters of the Universe: Revelation - WTF happened?

    I just saw Masters of the Universe: Revelation on Netflix, the Kevin Smith helmed He-Man Project. I can absolutely relate to the backlash and the criticism. I am not sure why Kevin Smith decided on this route, nor who motivated him. But the end result is troubling and so is his behavior.

    Shocked about the plot, love the design and visual aspect of the show, but Teela's idiotic behavior and storyline is mind blowing, aside from the fact that He-Man get's nearly killed twice O_O
