Spooktacular

I am unsure as to why Ghosts of War is receiving less fanfare than other films out at the moment. It is certainly heads above the other deluge of horror films out this year so far. The film and its setting does have a great amount of creeps and chills and thats from someone who leads a group of investigators who go in people's homes when they are about to flee as they cant take it anymore. However I fear the low rating on various reviews is due to the ending. Without giving away any spoilers, it does somewhat change the films journey and direction but does give one something to think about. I for one enjoyed it.

Been debating whether to watch this one. Sounds like it may be worth giving it a try!

If you're new to Discworld I probably wouldn't start with this book. It is good but there are better books to enter the insanity of the Disc on. If you have read some of the series but not the Witches story arcs, I would recommending you start with this one before Equal Rites.
This story is a bit quirky and has elements of Shakespeare within. We meet the three witches and see a different side to the Disc than just Ankh-Morpork. Within the book you will find: royal intrigue, Theater, ghosts, and a whole lot of misunderstandings and twists of fate, (or is it?).
The story does start out slow but once it starts to move it moves quickly. Highly recommend for those who have read more than a few of the books and most ages will like it.

I couldn't love this series or Terrible anymore than I already do. If you haven't started this series, you so should. It's a great Urban Fantasy series that combines ghosts, mystery and romance and it is AMAZING.

So in this we see it from Terrible's POV as he tries to track down who's been attacking prostitutes in Downside. It was interesting seeing how Terrible worked and the relationship between him and Bump.

We see bits of him with Chess and how, even so early on in the series, he wants to spend time with her and get to know her better. It's kinda sweet really, and just another reason why I love Terrible. Okay, so he's not the greatest looking guy but he has such a great heart underneath.

I'm eagerly awaiting book 6 in the series!

Boo! This Sucks But Its Good

Im not sure why, but i thought this movie was good. Iam going crazy? Its so bad its good, i guess its one of those films.

The plot: Trying to win the approval of her friends, 17-year-old Tiffany sneaks out of the house to go to a Halloween bash at a fraternity. The fun soon ends when police and the cranky, fast-talking Madea (Tyler Perry) arrive to crash the party. Unhappy with this sudden turn of events, the vengeful collegians decide to scare Madea and her cronies with a series of pranks. She soon finds herself under attack and on the run from an assortment of ghosts, ghouls and zombies on the scariest night of the year.

I laughed a few times, because it was so stupid, but i would reccordmend watching this movie.
