Movie Rating

Loved the creepy, tense, out of place feel from the main character's perspective (1 more)

Lots of deeper messages and metaphors to look out for

The ending could have been a bit more believable (0 more)

Modern day Stepford Wives with one hell of a twist

Great Movie! Not at all what I expected. The comedy was well timed and helped to lighten the otherwise extremely uncomfortable atmosphere (which I loved).

The Pretty Woman wears Prada.

Book Favorite

"This is a real delight. Among its leading characters is a man who, along with his dog, accidentally enters a chrono-synclastic infundibulum and gets stretched out across space and time. The inhabitants of Tralfamadore meanwhile distort the whole of human history to bring home one of their own. (The Great Wall of China and the Kremlin are messages from Tralfamadore. Draw your own conclusions.)"

Album Rating

Rolling Stone's 394th greatest album of all time

Easy listening (if you ignore the lyrics!) album, though it has to be said it just sounds like the Toy Story soundtrack (specifically "Strange Things" from the film). As a loose concept album about a deep South character, some of the lyrics and messages are a little strong for the laidback style (most notably on the opener Rednecks).
