"This is my favorite Fellini movie. It’s so fun and sweet and bold and effortlessly weird. You feel this young filmmaker surprising himself. It also captures the claustrophobic yet epic feeling of growing up in a small town and hanging out with your childhood friends all the time. And the whole carnival sequence is so great . . . especially the aftermath, when Alberto Sordi is wandering around the town square at dawn dragging an oversize clown head."

Intense, riveting and dark ... just what you want from a psychological thriller about a serial killer in a small town. An excellent read and an author I will most definitely be looking out for in the future. My thanks go to the Publisher and NetGalley for my ARC.

A cult classic drama film as two women go on the run leaving their small town lives behind. The two lead actresses have good chemistry. It's their relationship that make the film as good as it is. It has as a classic ending!

A half decent made for TV film starring Gary Busey as a sheriff of a small town with an escaped Tiger on the loose. It has some pretty gory make up scenes, surprised it's a PG?! Very much a Jaws on land and not too be taken seriously.

This is a great story that throws a disaster of almost Lovecraftian proportions onto a small town. If the antagonists aren't terrifying enough, seeing the social ecosystems of the survivors form and shift will make me think twice about which supermarkets I go into and which I avoid.

The debut Supper Club finds this new group of friends investigating a murder in their small town. The pacing was uneven, but the characters were absolutely great.
