A Quiet Place

March 29, 2018 By: superuser

What you’ll hear and see in this topnotch horror/thriller has got to be one of the best uses of sound deprivation and sound effects ever blended together in any movie.   With the release of Get Out last year, the horror genre has blown up big time.

The Final Year

January 14, 2018 By: superuser

Remember?   Remember when the president of the United States was intelligent, compassionate, sensitive, worldly, respectful of women, kind, inclusive, trusted, friendly, honest, modern, hip and revered around the globe?
