The motion picture studios send us vermillions of DVD releases for the purpose of review. More titles than you can shake a stick at, unless you have a lot of time and a particularly sturdy stick.

Even the gay vampire program Lair (from the makers of Dante’s Cove). We have a wide array of reviewers, all with functioning nervous systems and all ready to entertain YOU with their puns and prose. You. Are. Welcome.

I was thinking the other day, something I rarely do, about Harrison Ford’s downward trajectory into the abyss. It seemed like just last week he was befriending little Amish children, killing Terrorists with the flick of his wrist, and seducing Julia Ormand in a piss-poor Wilder remake. Above all, he was a man for his … Continue reading →
