Great kind of strange
I went into the first season thinking I was not going to like this series. I got hooked right out the gate. Great acting, character build and depth is great. They give the right amount in each episode to keep it moving and enticing.

Something different
Bit of a strange film a Western with a horror twist. It has a good cast and witty dialogue but some how felt rather low budget. The main problem is the film could easily be cut by about 30 minutes. It's very slow at the start and middle section. At least it's original.

2007 | Drama
Quite a strange tale. This film brings together a man just split from his cheating wife who is a farmer and ex-musician and a young white girl who seems to be a bit of a nymphomaniac! It's a good film about a very unusual friendship that can restore the both of them on the right path for the future.

2004 | Adventure, Comedy
Crazy road trip for two stoners out to satisfy their post drug hunger pangs.
Full of nuts one liners and strange Cameo's, it's a fun one to catch if you have just come in from a night on the tiles and need something comedic and fun but forgettable to watch.
It's very close to that other nuts stoner movie Dude where's my car.

A real missed opportunity, I was hoping for much more after seeing the trailer. The idea is good but the end result is not. It tries too hard to be a mix of the Matrix and Sin city, but the fights look strange and the CGI is over used. Watch it on TV if you have to but don't pay to see this.
  
This new adventure for Lewis Carroll's Alice finds her in another strange dream, this one influenced by the alphabet. It's got quite a few grins and laughs in it. I enjoyed it as a kid, and I enjoyed rereading it.

When a mysterious unseen foe kidnaps a cat and then one of the twins, the three Grace kids start to discover the strange secret of their new home. A strong plot and good character development kept me turning the pages of this novella.

There's a new kid in town, and since strange things have started happening, Trixie thinks he's up to no good. Besides, he's always wearing that black jacket. Is she right? I love this book to this day, especially the great climax.
