Movie Rating
This is one of my all time favorite movies. As a musical adapted to the big screen, it retains the rhythmic and incredibly precise movements you might expect from a well rehearsed play. Alan Cummings is brilliant, as are Kristen Bell, Christian Campbell, and Ana Gasteyer. The songs are catchy, campy fun, brilliantly skewering the original Reefer Madness for a new generation. As the film descends into reefer madness and the character's dangerous weed addiction provoke more and more unlikely responses, the film's reality begins to unravel into murder, chaos, and marijuana zombies.

Watch this if you like comedic musicals, cannabis induced cannibalism, or you just want to see Kristen Bell in latex S&M gear.

I Slept On The Horse
If you love fantasy/medieval stories, musicals, and satire then you need to see Galavant. For those who like authors like Terry Pratchett, I recommend this show whole-heartedly (can we also just appreciate our leading lady was in Color of Magic STP fans?). It's got some really great moments and amazingly fun cameos. Do yourself a favor and at least make it into episode two with John Stamos, (from which you'll understand the title).

In short, if you like to have fun you are going to love this show. It's about the only musical I can sit through and I hum songs from it/rewatch them constantly.

Entertaining
This movie was very entertaining. The small jump scares, dark visuals, sound effects and musical score combined with the great reaction performances by the actors gave this movie some top notch "creep factor". Some parts were pretty predictable, but it didn't take away from the entertainment value. The story played out nicely at a good, steady pace. The ties to 'The Conjuring' were ok, but unnecessary, as this is a great stand alone film. Might be too scary for little kids, but I thinki most teens(and some pre-teens) could handle it. If you like a good demonic tale, I highly recommend checking this one out. Worth a watch!

My preferred music app
I LOVE the Amazon music app. I have a very wide range of musical interests, and Amazon has not let me down yet. They have everything from lullabies to music from the 20s and 30s. Almost every specific CD I've searched for has been available to listen free with my Prime subscription, and the ones that were not available for free could easily be purchased.
My one qualm- when you purchase music through this app it is only playable through the app. You can download to play offline, but you cannot load it to another device to burn it into CD format (I attempted this with a lullaby CD for my son).

A Real Piece of Art
Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds is an enduring classic, with stunning storytelling lyrics & drama building music aplenty. From the first bars I was hooked from first listen.
This takes the story to a new level, with a narration from the velvety voice of Richard Burton - it transports you from the fear of the unknown, to the depths of terror and finishes with hope and the sheer resilience of the human spirit. Great as a whole and some real stand out pieces, Forever Autumn being a hit in it’s own right & The Eve of the War being the ring tone choice of many (including me). Just unmissable.
