This was over before I even knew it and my heart is threatening to pound straight through my chest. Why do I persist in reading these things right before bedtime is a mystery to me but man, this short story was fantastic and packs one heck of a fright. I am completely enthralled with the authors and look forward to devouring more of these books.

The ending was just too much. (0 more)
I love Tarantino as much as the next guy. This movie was fantastic. The acting was on point, and the fight scene with Bruce Lee was BRILLIANT (don't let anyone tell you different). I loved everything right up until the climax. I'm down with ultraviolence and gore, but that final scene was just not enjoyable for me.

"You know, I loved the early records, Axis: Bold As Love, loved Electric Ladyland; it was fantastic. I loved his bravado and the feedback. All his guitar playing is amazing, but seeing him do 'The Star-Spangled Banner' at Woodstock, you know, that's pretty amazing. And also at Monterey Pop, when he sets fire to the guitar, for me, when I first saw that..."

"Scanners is another film I remember from childhood. The ad for it in the newspaper horrified me, but I couldn’t stop looking at it. I was too young to go see it back then, but I saw it as soon as I could. It’s an amazing combination of score and story. Of course the scene is one of the most memorable and fantastic in horror movie history."

Movie Favorite

"Let’s start with Love Jones, which is just a classic. One of the first times I saw myself reflected on screen in a way – just a beautiful story, a love story that felt textured and layered and interesting and beautifully shot, with Black people in the lead positions. The music, all of it, just touched a deep place in my soul and was fantastic."

Book Favorite

"Studs Terkel was a radio host in Chicago who also wrote fantastic oral histories about 20th century America by interviewing regular people about their lives. He covered the Great Depression in Hard Times; World War II in The Good War; and, in this book, what people’s jobs mean to them. His books are invaluable time capsules of how Americans in previous generations spoke and thought about themselves."
