Intense, fabulously strong protagonist
Pretty horrific from the outset, this disturbing tale of a serial killer and abuser leaves you feeling breathless by the end. I managed to listen to this in one sitting.
The main character is brilliant, she is stronger than you can ever imagine and I salute Helen Callaghan for raising the issue of mental health and the stigma surrounding it.
Great twist in the end although it may seem disjointed and there are unanswered questions.

Ugh
This movie was weak. The cinematography/effects was the only good part and that was just "ok". The acting was terrible and the storyline didn't seem to know what it wanted to be-a psycho killer movie or a ghost story. I almost stopped watching it halfway through but figured I should at least finish it. I regret that decision. This one is considered a horror movie but there's nothing "horror" about it. NOT worth a watch!

Makes you feel things you don't think you should feel for a serial killer

The film was a reminder that Ted Bundy didn't look and act as evil on an average day as we would expect him to, and in most cases, even in the most heinous of cases, evil could be anyone.

Campy Horror at it's best!!
This is the first in the Hatch Movie Trilogy. Like most low budget horror flicks this one lacks in the acting department but if you like the campy funny horror movies this one is great. The "supernatural killer" is actually one of the better low budget killers. If you are like me and watch any and all horror check it out and don't expect it to keep you up at night.

Story
Group of trainee camp councellors are about to discover that history is about to repeat itself as they are dismembered by a masked maniac can they surive.
The first of many sequels and the first to feature jason as the killer wearing a sack over his head. The kills are gory and amy steele is brillant as the lone surivor. One of the better sequels but no sign of the hockey mask yet

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2355 KP) rated The 9th Judgment (Women's Murder Club, #9) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The Women's Murder Club are hot on the trail of a cat burglar who just escalated to murder and a serial killer praying on women and their very young kids. After the disappointing last book in the series, I actually found this one enjoyable. The epilogue left much to be desired, however. Mindless entertainment, but fun mindless entertainment.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2355 KP) rated The 8th Confession (Women's Murder Club, #8) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The latest book in the Women's Murder Club series finds the women tracking the killer of the very rich and famous as well as the murderer of a homeless man. Those cases are fine, but the romantic sub-plots and the stories given to Yuki are bad enough to make me want to throw the book across the room.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2355 KP) rated Caught in the Middle in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Merry is a reporter in a small Pennsylvania town. One night, she arrives home to find a body in her trunk. Which means the killer starts coming after her. I loved this book just as much as the first time around. The Christian aspect is handled well, the story moves quickly, and the characters are lovable.

Mar 9, 2018
When Mark hears a gunshot at a neighbor's house, he investigates to find two dead bodies who have been dead for more than a couple of minutes. He's certain the killer is the person with the perfect alibi. Can he prove it? Lots of twists and turns with characters who live up to their TV show persona. Another great read.

Four in a Grave
This. Book.
I have no words.
But I will try my absolute best, to sum up my feelings.
This book is about Tessa who is the only living survivor of a serial killer who buried her alive along with three other girls. Their grave was then covered with 'black-eyed Susans' which are a yellow flowered weed (hence the title of the book)
