Hellbound: Hellraiser II is a lesser movie than its predecessor for sure, but still was just enough bonkers to make it rather entertaining, though we only get a slight glimpse into the origins of the Cenobites.

Hellraiser Blu-ray Review
Hellraiser normally isn’t my kind of horror movie but still, had plenty of entertainment value even if the plot itself was a bit of a mess at times and the Cenobites, which were interesting designs, didn’t have nearly enough screen time.
Fear No Evil Blu-ray Review
Fear No Evil is not a great movie and certainly rather cheesy especially when it came to the make-up effects but there is a certain amount of fun to be had even if, personally, these supernatural-horror films aren’t my thing.
Supergirl: The Complete Fourth Season Blu-ray Review
Supergirl: The Complete Fourth Season might on the heavy-handed side in its dealings with current events, but even so the performances for the most part have been respectable especially from Melissa Benoist who embodies the role so well.

Arrow: The Complete Seventh Season Blu-ray Review
Arrow: The Complete Seventh Season isn’t a marked improvement over the past few seasons but at least a bit more entertaining and a tighter storyline that I actually enjoyed for the most part.

Vampires: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
Vampires isn’t a great horror movie and certainly not top shelf in John Carpenter’s vast resume, but it does have its moments, including a fun performance from James Woods, and an interesting, even unique, origin of the vampires.

NOVA: The Planets Blu-ray Review
NOVA: The Planets is an alright documentary series though I have seen better produced from The Science Channel and the like, though this is still well worth checking out for anyone interested in our outer-space neighbors.
Aniara Blu-ray Review
Aniara to say the least isn’t exactly a feel good movie of the year, but it is at times haunting, if not depressingly beautiful… The acting is quite strong from the core cast, primarily Emelie Jonsson and Bianca Cruzeiro.
Magnificent Obsession: The Criterion Collection Blu-ray Review
Magnificent Obsession is a wonderful romantic drama featuring two great performances by Rock Hudson and Jane Wyman (who was nominated for an Academy Award), beautifully shot by director Douglas Sirk.

Blue Bloods: The Ninth Season DVD Review
Blue Bloods: The Ninth Season has some decent dramatic moments and I do enjoy the cast, primarily Tom Selleck though the others amongst the ensemble hold their own.
Do or Die Blu-ray Review
Do or Die is just another poorly made action-adventure film from Andy Sidaris and while yes most of it is rather bad, I did have a little fun watching and can imagine this would make for a great MST3K night with a bunch of friends.
Guns Blu-ray Review
Guns is a ridiculous movie for sure (both in the good and bad way) with an overly complicated and meandering plot alongside some truly bad performances and terrible dialogue, but the movie did at least get me to laugh.
SEAL Team: Season Two DVD Review
SEAL Team is a well made and finely acted series headlined by David Boreanaz who still has the charm to be the lead, as he had demonstrated from the fantasy-horror like Angel to forensics-drama in Bones and now military-action here.
Manson Family Movies DVD Review
Manson Family Movies is an… interesting experiment and quite disturbing at times in just how realistic the video footage looks. Even so, this is the type of “movie” that really only hardcore Manson experts might enjoy as you’re not getting anything in terms of information.
NCIS: New Orleans: The Fifth Season DVD Review
Having watched Quantum Leap growing up, I’m a fan of Scott Bakula where he was pretty goof in the much maligned Enterprise series, but now five seasons in, with a few exceptions, NCIS: New Orleans really is need of some fresh blood within the writers’ room or something.
