Two brothers in 1890's Montana find themselves on a ranch where mysterious things are happening. Fortunately, one of them thinks he can plan Sherlock Holmes. Can he solve this real life mystery? The characters are fun, but the plot does bog down a little in the middle.

Brothers Old Red and Big Red travel back to Texas to figure out who killed the love of Old Red's life several years before. This is the darkest book in the series so far without quite as much humor. But it was still compelling reading for fans of the series.

They're only noodles, Michael
One of my favourite films of all time.
This may be the perfect vampire film - nailing the cool, nighttime lifestyle of the more lucid vampire, who secretly own the town. Twists and turns as Sam and the Frogg Brothers try to work out who the head vampire is and kill him before his minions kill them. Like a 90 minute long Def Leppard video with vampires.

Given the overall tone of the current DCEU in film, this was surprisingly lighthearted and fun fair. Zach was a perfect fit to play the titular character. The story was well done and the CGI were about what you would expect out of Warner Brothers. Gaping door was left wide open for a continuation. Honestly, I'll go see it in the theater if they do decide to make that happen.

"One of my favorite films from Jim Jarmusch; I can never get enough of it. Beautifully shot by Robby Müller in Louisiana, a jailbreak with Tom Waits, John Lurie, and the first time many of us were to see the amazing Roberto Benigni. The Defiant Ones meets the Marx Brothers and even better. Jim is one of the last true stylists left in this “sad and beautiful world.”"

"When I graduated from high school, I worked at a video store in Philadelphia with an extensive selection of international films. La promesse became one of my first favorites because of the real, raw quality of the acting and the Dardenne brothers’ brave and unflinching look at racism and prejudice. When I rewatched the film recently, it felt especially meaningful given the ongoing plight of migrants around the world today."
