So as you'll know if you've followed my last few reviews, that I've been pretty obsessed with this series over the past couple of days. I don't know what it is with these questionable straight guys and the gay/bisexual guys they end up with but I've pretty much devoured them.

This one was all just a bit too strange for me. For these guys to be so obsessed with each other--well Gabriel anyway. Jared was trying to move on but one request from Gabe and he was running back to him like the man in love he was. It was rather unhealthy and maybe a little twisted. I didn't understand it much.

I kinda wanted them to get together but at the same time it didn't seem right. Gabe had a girlfriend and a baby from pretty much the start of the book and...just no. I like my M/M stories to not have children attached unless they're grown up (Or a certain book that I loved by M.J. O'Shea and Piper Vaughn :D)

This has been my least favourite of the series so far but I will read the next book in the series to see what it's like.

When I say Pure Flix's superbly silly Christian ๐˜‘๐˜ฐ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ž๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ฌ + Holy Bible mashup with ๐˜Ž๐˜ฐ๐˜ฅ'๐˜ด ๐˜•๐˜ฐ๐˜ต ๐˜‹๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ's Pastor Dave in the Keanu Reeves role and William Baldwin as a twisted desert sex cult leader where a drill goes into some dude's eye at one point - I want you to know that not only is that as righteously (no pun intended) entertaining as that sounds... it's better. Shocking what good acting, minimal preaching, and a budget that costs more than a Happy Meal can do for these things even as there's still no real characterization. Made by people who aren't just trying to cash-in on the success of Wick, but people who clearly love and respect the franchise: this has the delicious wide-angle comically over-the-top fight sequences, bumping screechsynth score, general nasty brutality, portentous monologues, and weaponized masculinity in all their respective glories. Never thought I'd see the day where one of these is executed with actual competency, especially when they aren't afraid to get down and dirty. I haven't seen a film which instantly made me demand cult status in forever - but this one absolutely deserves it.

Sitting down to watch the new Wrong Turn flick. About ten minutes in I was curious to know what the inbred mountain man were going to look like.
Little did I know.
The 2021 edition of Wrong Turn doesn't have deformed monstrosities stalking their prey through the woods and hills of the North Carolina. It doesn't have a spider monkey inbred that could climb a tree in ,4 seconds.
What it does have is an entire community of people living in the hills. A community that has their own laws. Their own court. Their own due process. And the results are quite impressive.
Movie begins off innocently enough 6 friends backpacking through the woods and hills of the mountains.
What follows is a messy, twisted romp that reminds me of the short lived tv series called "Outsiders". But with an R rating and some eye gouging and throat slitting and blood spilling...
I'm not gonna say it's a welcome edition to the Wrong Turn franchise... But it's really not a Wrong Turn movie... It should've been called The Foundation... Or even Wrong Turn: The Foundation... Would've made more sense.

Two days to save her . . .
 
For over five years, the Four Monkey Killer has terrorized the residents of Chicago. When his body is found, the police quickly realize he was on his way to deliver one final message, one which proves he has taken another victim who may still be alive.
 
One day . . .
 
As the lead investigator on the 4MK task force, Detective Sam Porter knows that even in death, the killer is far from finished. When he discovers a personal diary in the jacket pocket of the body, Porter finds himself caught up in the mind of a psychopath, unraveling a twisted history in hopes of finding one last girl, all while struggling with personal demons of his own.
 
Zero.
 
With only a handful of clues, the elusive killerโ€™s identity remains a mystery. Time is running out as the Four Monkey Killer taunts from beyond the grave in this masterfully written fast-paced thriller.




I actually found this quite chilling! It was very well written especially the diary chapters! I honestly didnโ€™t see that twist coming! I kept swapping my rating from a 4 to a 3 and vide versa as Iโ€™m not sure where I wanted it to go! I really enjoy J D Barker and look forward to the next book!
