Mark Halpern (153 KP) rated Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) in Movies
Jan 13, 2018
Excellent adventure
The story of two senior high school students who need to pass their oral history exam who get an time traveling phone booth to go and borrow historical figures to help them pass the exam in a really excellent fashion. The movie is full of fun and laughs even though the science is a little bit stretched. The fun of seeing Napoleon at a water park or Gengis Kahn go psycho in a mall dressed like a linebacker is worth the time. George Carlin plays the futuristic man who is tasked with getting them on their way and it makes a nice star cameo.

Sheriff Chuck vs. the indistructable
Before Chuck Norris was everyone's favorite meme, he actually made cool action movies in the 1980s.
This time he is pitted against a seemingly unstoppable superhuman psycho mute who killed his family and is experimented on at the local hospital. He escapes capture and it's up to Chuck to save us all.
The film is like 50/50 horror/action. His enemy is part Terminator and part Michael Myers. There is a decent amount of action and 80s gratuitous nudity to boot.
Probably not for everyone, but I likes me some 80s cheesy action.

Zuky the BookBum (15 KP) rated Cold Calling in Books
Mar 15, 2018
<b><i>People will put up with all manner of perversion, all manner of fucked-up-ness, theyll positively revel in it, but what people wont tolerate is boredom.</b></i>
To a certain extent, I did enjoy this, but I don't feel comfortable saying that due to the depravity and obscenity of it. This certainly has some <i>American Psycho</i> vibes to it, a book which I thoroughly enjoyed, but <i>Cold Calling</i> somehow seems to excel Bateman's darkness with Rhys' spur-of-the-moment crime. I suppose because in <i>American Psycho</i>, there is a clear underlying cultural message and in <i>Cold Calling</i>, that same message doesn't get across so easily, if it's even there at all.
Wilks' writing is good, there's no doubt about that, he keeps you reading and wanting more no matter how disturbed you feel. There's a card game scene in the middle of the novel that I got a bit tired with, but it was to develop the growing anger, boredom and hatred inside of Rhys.
This is definitely <b>NOT</b> one for the squeamish. I'm not surprised this has several low ratings, it's certainly a difficult novel to handle and is only going to be enjoyed by a very niche market.
One thing I <i>really</i> love about this book is the gruesome cover art!
Thanks to Haydn Wilks for sending me a copy in exchange for a review!

Meh
I was expecting so much from this movie and it didn't pay off. I thought this was going to be about "what if superman was a normal kid who got bullied and so used his new found powers for revenge." Instead we got "strange psycho alien kid who used to be completely normal and now he is insane because reasons." Not gonna lie, the gore was slightly entertaining, but the kid actor was off-putting; and not in a horror movie kind of way.
The concept of the movie had the potential to be something special and give something different to the superhero genre, but instead we got another hash of "The Omen" movies.
