Let’s be honest Amazon streaming service sucks. Owch.
Oh boy it’s Amazon
Amazon the killer of old school retail. Let’s be honest everyone loves shopping in their underwear. I mean does it really get better than that? You pay a small subscription fee which not only gives you free two day shipping. (Which has saved my butt one to many times). It also gives you excess to their streaming subscriptions, prime reading and prime music! What a steal!

Good cast (1 more)
Good location
Underwhelming
I like a whodunit murder mystery and this had been on my list to see for a long time. It's not a film that gets shown on TV often but is on Sky cinema at present.
It has a rather silly plot of a serial killer around Oxford University who leaves clues a Maths professor and student try to solve. The scenes in and around Oxford University give it a nice setting. The lead characters are good actors but unfortunately they are let down by the final revelation about the murders. One for Whodunit fans only.

I thought this film really did something I wasn't expecting. Instead of focusing on the physical crime that created Ted Bundy into the infamous killer everyone knows him as today; it was refreshing to see a more emotional take on the whole events. I loved the performance of Liz. Wholly, I think this film will be disliked because it didn't divulge into the gruesome and gory deaths that we all know about, but I think the director did an amazing job of holding the perspective.
This film reminds me of the Steve Jobs film with Michael Fassbender, and also Legend with Tom Hardy.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2173 KP) rated Well-Offed in Vermont (Pret’ Near Perfect Mystery #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Stella and Nick Buckley have traded in life in New York City for a small town in Vermont. But when they arrive at their new home, they find a dead man in their well. Since they can't move in until the murder is solved, they dig in to catch the killer themselves. I enjoyed this debut, especially the main characters. Unfortunately, I felt the momentum in the beginning was slowed down by back story that could have been slipped in better later.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2173 KP) rated Inherit the Word (Cookbook Nook Mystery, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The Cookbook Nook is hosting the town's annual grill competition, but things turn sour when the reigning champion is murdered before the first round even starts. When a friend of Jenna's becomes the prime suspect, she starts nosing around to find the killer.
I love this small touristy beach town, and I have already grown to love these characters. The plot was great with lots of good suspects and plenty of red herrings, too. I can't wait to visit again.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2173 KP) rated How to Host a Killer Party (Party Planning, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Presley Parker's party planning business might finally be entering the big leagues when she is asked to host the mayor's surprise wedding on Alcatraz. But things take a turn for the worse when the bride to be storms off only to turn up dead and the police want to talk to Presley. I found the pacing in the middle a bit uneven, but a great beginning and climax coupled with warm characters make me want to read more.

Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated Facials Can Be Fatal (Bad Hair Day Mystery, #13) in Books
Feb 21, 2018
When a well-to-do client dies mid-facial, Marla Vail decides to track down a killer to save her salons reputation. This cozy has a great cast of characters and suspects galore. Its a fast moving story that will keep you guessing, and rooting for Marla all the way through. While it is the 13th Bad Hair Day Mystery series, youll be able to catch on and not feel lost even if you havent read the previous 12 books. You will most likely want to go back and read them when youre done, however!

Mar 9, 2018
Air Force wife Ellie is used to moving. They've arrived at a new base, this time one their best friends are also assigned to. However, one of those friends is soon accused of murder. Being new to the base, and Ellie work out the local politics to find the killer? The characters are a bit under developed and the plot moves slowly in the first half. It does pick up later, but it wasn't the strongest debut overall.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2173 KP) rated Dead Man's Switch (A Kate Reilly Mystery #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Kate has finally landed a job as a race car driver. Unfortunately, it's at the expense of the man she found murdered. With the police and gossip thinking she did it, Kate jumps in to find the real killer.
I felt the author was trying too hard to share her racing knowledge with us, and the result slowed the story down. Some of the characters were a tad under developed as well. Still, the climax was great and the solution was logical.

Dean (6925 KP) rated Sorority Row (2009) in Movies
Mar 10, 2018
A very good fun slasher that has a lot of humour in it. One of the best slasher films I have seen in a while, maybe since House of Wax? It seems the guys working on this know all the right ingredients to give the fans what they want. It doesn't take itself seriously and the characters still make jokes even when being chased by the killer....which was maybe going a bit far. Still it has a cool young cast, good effects, some original kills and a wild party theme throughout. Definitely one for slasher fans!!
