Disappointing even though it's based on a terrifying true story
I was looking forward to watch this film given that the story of Johnny Frank Garrett is on par with the real life mysteries of Amityville and The Omen. However, the film completely missed the point and went straight to a Rob Zombie type horror film.
Garrett was executed in reality in 1992 following the rape and murder of a nun. On what many believe shoddy evidence, he was found guilty despite proclaiming his innocence throughout. His last words were chillingly prophetic as much of what he said allegedly came true.
Many of those involved in the case including jury members met mysterious deaths as well as their family members post-execution. And this is where this filmmaker came in. Instead of exploring the connections and insanity of the deaths itself, he turns Garrett into a demon-like character which makes the whole film a bit of a joke. What a disappointment.

"You rode a 15 year old boy straight to his death ... and the rest of us straight to hell"
1990 'Brat pack' western movie, purporting to tell a fictionalised retelling of the last days of William H Boney aka Billy the Kid, shot down by the sheriff Pat Garrett.
I have no idea how much of this is fictionalised n and how much is fact: I do know that sheriff Pat Garrett is supposed to have shot Billy the Kid in the back, but as for the backstory that he used to ride with him ...?
Anyway, this now shows its age, although the soundtrack is as great as ever!

Entertainment Editor (1988 KP) rated Blue Madonna by Børns in Music
Feb 13, 2018
The second album from the rapidly ascendent synth-pop star Garrett Borns offers more of the same: great ideas constrained in songs that rarely allow them to come to fruition.

short and sweet, steamy and smexy!
I was gifted my copy of this book.
What this is, right, is a short, sweet, super smexy read, that hit all the spots that needed hitting for me, at this moment in time.
It is, quite simply, boy meets boy, they fall in love, the end! And I freaking loved it and the only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars was cos it was too flipping short and I wanted MORE of these two, I really did!
Neither Kyle nor Garrett is looking for anything permenant, but when Garrett comes to Kyle's apartment to fix his air con, all bets are off and the pair fall hard and fast and so flipping cutely, it was almost pure sugar.
This is set in the Brannon Brothers realm, and it's not necessary to read the first Brannon book, Heat Transfer, to follow this one. Garrett has connections with those boys, which is why it's in the series.
Short and sweet, smexy and steamy, a fabulous 4 star read.
