There is folk that wants to whisper in your ear, and then there is the music of Lankum: urgent, desperate and detonating, full of lyrics and sounds smacking together like waves shattering stones in a storm.

Fantastic!
This is by far 1 of the best books I've read, it is a book I recommended to everyone especially as it's not 'normally' to my taste.
The style in which it it's written is also brilliant not many writers can pull it off especially at this level!
You will feel that you really know the characters by the end.
A gripping read!

Brilliant from start to finish. A fast paced easy to read book that I had to read in one go to find out what happened. Lisa, Qunicy and Samantha are all sole survivors of separate massacres and that is why they are called the final girls.
Critic- The Quidnung
Original Score: 4 out of 5

An Interesting and Unique International Film
I went into this film not sure what to expect and boy I was not disappointed. The story was original, the aliens were unique, and it was set in Johannesburg, South Africa. It is very refreshing to see such a good international film, as I have not had much luck with them in my time. Simply brilliant film, highly recommend!

A Wild Time
Disney animation movies are getting almost as good as Pixar's. As a follow up to Frozen, Disney knock it out of the park again in terms of producing a brilliant kids movie that people of any age can enjoy. Amazing animation, a tight script and well implemented voice acting make for another modern classic kid's movie.

Massive run up to a very anticlimatic ending (0 more)
I did enjoy this film, half way through I still hadn’t figured out what was going on, which I liked.

I thought the acting was brilliant and very believable. However I felt that it ended very abruptly, the film told an elaborate story with frequent twists, but the ending was very sudden.

2008 | Drama
This series started off a bit darker than series three, and the whole humor angle seemed to have disappeared but wait until episode five, it is absolutely brilliant. It is done in black and white and reflects the old black and white horror movies and everything is spot on, the lighting, sets. Even if you don't watch the whole series just watch this episode.

Sometimes slow
What the hell am I watching?
I expected it to be weird because it's directed by Guillermo Del Toro but I was still surprised at how weird it is.
An amphibian man is something of general fantasy, but a mute cleaning lady who falls in love with the amphibian man is obscure.
However it does have a structured storyline, and brilliant cinematography.

When the chief programmer at her new company is murdered, AIP Turing Hopper once again enlists her human friends to track a killer. Have an artificial intelligence personality as the main character once again proves a brilliant move as this is another page turner.
