Hazel (2934 KP) rated The Nightmare Dance in Books
Jan 12, 2018
Firstly, I would like to draw your attention to the cover of the book - the look on the little boy's face is haunting. What threat is he? What happened to him? Who is the man behind the machine gun and why? This book provides an explanation.
I don't think you could ever describe this book as enjoyable or a thrilling read because of the nature of its content, however it was well written and well researched although I am no expert.

Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated Escape in Books
Jul 25, 2017
While nothing new, it is well executed
The structure of this jam-packed, fast paced novel is well-laid out, moving from the protagonist's voice to a mysterious person continuously. While the enigmatic chapters were less than mysterious, as I figured out who it was near the beginning, it is clear and not too overdone. It is sad as there are many mothers treated this way especially through the systems, not believed and thought of as unfit. Hence it seems realistic with a sense of tension throughout

At first it was hard to follow this book due to the writing style. As well as that it irked me a bit when the main character wasn't using the language customs of her time even thought she never traveled prior to that, it seemed like it blended in well to either time she was but it didn't seem that believable.After that bit i really loved the story as a whole. It was captivating and adventurous and im excited for another in this story.

Could have been so much better
When I first saw the original short film it scared the crap out of me, the whole idea of what is in the dark that we just can't see is such a base fear for most people and the short film played on it so well.
Just like the short film Lights Out played on this fear so well but due to an uninteresting plot and frankly unmemorable characters, they really lost what made the short film so good.

Contains spoilers, click to show
This film is superb, following the original three games, The Eternal Diva shows style and fluidity matching the games. The scenes are very well done and provide and excellent story that manages to fit puzzles like that of the games within it.
The fact that they have Luke begin the film by acting as a PR man for the first three games is amusing too.
I particularly enjoyed the operatic scenes of the film, as well as the revealing of Melanie's possession of Janet.

Dean (6927 KP) rated Deadly Sins (1995) in Movies
May 4, 2019
Well it was far from great, it sounds like a slasher but it was more like a thriller. It doesn't have many deaths, not the greatest plot, very predictable without much reasoning for the motive. At times it was even more like an erotic thriller. It looks very dated as well for '95, looking a good 10 years older than that, a lot of use of smoke machines here. Overall a funny, odd cheesy film for a late night when nothing else is on.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated The Proposition (The Proposition, #1) in Books
May 7, 2019
found this book by accident while searching and thought id give it a go as the story was a bit different and i'm so glad i did. it was well written and the characters were witty and romantic. even the secondary characters worked well on enhancing the story. as with many trilogy's i always try and wait for the complete set and i'm so glad i did. have book two ready as this book has a cliffhanger ending.

Dean (6927 KP) rated Chronicle (2012) in Movies
Feb 5, 2018 (Updated Feb 6, 2018)
Entertaining Sci-Fi film
A really good film that feels low budget but with blockbuster SFX. I didn't realise at first from the trailers it was a hand-held cam, POV film and this is handled very well with the kids abilities! Really good effects as they become stronger with their powers. Only downside the film is far too short at 77mins, the end felt kinda rushed and obvious as well. Still a very enjoyable film though, while it lasts.
