This one was a surprise hit for me as the genre needed a boost, it has some great moments such as the "Zombie kill of the week" recap which is a short distraction from the main story.
Bill Murray as always was fun to watch and lifted an already good movie to another level "time to nutt up, or shut up"

I love this book. I did not realize it was a short story until I was already into it but that doesn't bother me at all. The book was awesome. I loved the dreaming, loved the stipulations put on everyone.. loved the way everything played out and it all came together awesome. Vengence was amazing as was his girl. Loved it :)

A pretty decent horror film based on the short story by Clive Barker, which is a bit Stephen King like. It's very bloody and gruesome but the cgi effects make it less shocking. Overall a very simple idea for a film well executed but the cgi effects are over done and the story is a bit too straight forward most of the time.
The novel is a prequel that sets up the Peter Pan story we all know and love. As a Peter Pan fan, I enjoyed it, although the short chapters and multiple view points made it too choppy near the end.

Four short stories set in a small, college town in Massachusetts that focus on the characters who live there. I really enjoyed meeting them and look forward to getting to know them better in the novels she is also setting there. NOTE: I was sent this book in exchange for my honest review.

Hmm not heard of the character before? This just seemed like a comic book western for me with a quirky supernatural element. It has a good cast and while not being a bad film, it does feel like there is something missing? It could have been a lot better. It's very short and simple and has some ok action scenes, that's about it.

I hate the way a lot of authors divide their book into a short page series, I can only think that it is to get as much money out of the reader as possible for a book that isn't really that good and sadly thats what I think about this. It started off really good but slowly went downhill as the series progressed

This is a decent but short (6 episodes) first series of what is a highly acclaimed sit-com. I like the style (mockumentary) and the small cast of characters. The best moments are when the cast just go on a random rant/list weird things, which feels ad-libbed and hilarious. With the characters introduced I hope the comedy ramps up from here.
