"(Thank God it wasn’t a dragon tattoo.) This volume contains the gorgeous, 1,001 Nights-like castrati story Sarrasine, the one that inspired Roland Barthes’ S/Z. A great introduction to le Maitre."

Anything 80's can't be too bad
Ernest Cline's futuristic novel references back to the 80's in many ways. The story of a kid in 2044 tied to a virtual world called OASIS has the chance to win the grand prize if he can beat the thousands of others to solve it. Love the references used through out the book and the culture of it. Great read, couldn't put it down. I highly recommend it.

A fun trip back to the 80's. Ah, Memories of time spent in front of my Commodore 64. What a fun book to read. Reminiscing about the 1980's was the best part of this book. It was such a blast remembering things. Light and fluffy, this will be considered a quick read. Not sure why it took me so long to finish. Once I got into it ( around the 4th chapter or so), the rest flew by.

Sets the 80's Horror video well (0 more)
Retro Horror short
A mini Horror film at around 50 minutes long. Made to feel like you are watching an old 80's Horror video complete with VHS style trailers and warnings. Does well in setting the low budget horror vibe. Not much of a plot, much the same as the old slasher films. It's not that bad if you like Slasher films and don't mind low budget stuff, nothing special though.
