Disney in the 80's noticed the trend that horror movies were making quite a bit of money and they were a struggling company financially so they decided they were going to make some scary and sci do movies including watcher in the woods, The Black Hole and This movie Which is based On A ray Bradbury Book. I Must say first that I Have not read the book so my review Is based upon the movie alone! This is scary and definitely not recommended for young viewers that being said it is not a horror movie but is extremely dark with some frightening moments. Mr. Dark and his carnival come to town when things start to happen to the townspeople can two young boys stop mr. Dark from his sinister plans or will they be the next

It’s rare that I prefer a film or TV series to the book it is based on but I think this may be the exception. Having only seen the 1st series on TV I thought I’d give the book a go and although the world-building lives up to what I’d expect the story itself is slow and not as tense.

It’s scary and an all believable world that Atwood creates but the telling seemed bogged down in details over the mundane.

I probably spoiled myself seeing the TV series first but I’d recommend that to all. I feel the theme has been gone over plenty so won't rehash but it's a worthwhile story however you decide to consume it.

Good Omens - Season 2
2023 | Comedy
I was one of those who wandered how they would do a second season of a show based on a single book, when the entirety of that book had been covered in season one.

The answer, it turns out, is that Gaiman and Pratchett had ideas for a sequel, which nothing ever came off.

Gaiman is one of the showrunners here (as he was in season 1).

This, even more than that earlier season, concentrates on the pairing of the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley, with lots of flashes of the two of them throughout the years since the Creation, and here trying to uncover just why the Archangel Gabriel has arrived at Aziraphale's bookshop with absolutely no memory at all.
  
I love babies. I love the One-skein wonders series. So it’s natural that I would love this book.

I love knitting and crocheting but I’m not the most patient long-term project minded person. I also really like pictures. Generally I decide what to make (knit, sew, cook) based on the picture. That’s one thing I really like about this book: all the patterns have at least one picture (usually more) plus diagrams! I also really like the page-layout and the color-blocks.

This is perfect for anyone who wants a quick project for a precious little one.
