OHG this series... dark, sick and twisted and yet so good. This has been by far the hardest in the series to read for me so far.. without sharing spoilers, my heart broke over and over again until I simply couldn't take any more (and then grabbed the next book of course!?). You know those books where your heart races, your blood boils and you find yourself shaking uncontrollably as you have a panic attack while reading....well, this is THAT book!?

Fun watch
Another old one I've never seen. Sooo cheesy all around but still a fun movie. Lots of fake blood, silly trinkets and bodies exploding. The acting was on par for a 90s movie-full of cheesy one liners. The story was also what you'd expect from a 90s vampire flick- lack of real emotion but full of weakly choreographed action sequences. If you've ever seen a "Tales from the Crypt" show/movie you'll like this one, too. Worth a watch.

There Will Be Blood (2007)
2007 | Drama

"What other great films are there? Ah, for God’s sake, There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men. I saw those films that year, back to back. Just outstanding work by director, writer, producers, actors. Captivating, both men: Javier Bardem and Daniel Day Lewis — just iconic. Every time he steps on the stage, you know, you can’t take your eyes off the guy. And both films sit on the bookshelf as bookends, really, to that special year of film making."

"I read this alarmist right-wing book about cults in my school library, and at the time I was like, “Cults – this is amazing!” There was a section on satanic cults. They had a whole chapter about Venom and their Black Metal LP. It quoted the lyrics to “Sacrifice” about drinking a chalice of blood – and I remember thinking ‘this is so stupid and crazy’: I had to buy the album. It wasn’t as heavy and scary as I thought it would be."

Dont try and piece together any semblance of a coherent storyline here, just sit back and let it happen is what I told myself whilst taking in this over the top Danny Trejo vehicle.
One thing going for it is that it never tries to be something it isn't and is of the pulp grindhouse nature that means thin plot and lots of blood and incoherent dialogue which you will absolutely love or loath, I was somewhere firmly in the middle.
