This beautifully written book is more than a story of a hermaphrodite. It is a rich family history interwoven with the history of Greek immigrants, as well as a history of life in the Detroit area from the early auto industry through the Ci... More

BloodRayne
Reviewed by Raven
After watching this I think I might just be sick in the head because I kind of liked it. Perhaps I was just in a trashy mood. In my defence I haven't played the games so I couldn't tell you if it was a good adaption but then again a good ad... More

Ghost Rider
Reviewed by Zuraka
First off, you really can't go too wrong with a movie based on a superhero, and this one is no exception. Not only did I enjoy the movie, but the story behind ghost rider was something I never really knew. I will have to read up on it an fi... More

The Snow Queen
Reviewed by Raven
"Real cold will kill you dead, just like that." No kidding. With lines like that you know you're in for some riveting dialogue. Yes I'm being sarcastic. This movie was odd and not in a good way. It was also a tad stupid and slightly painful... More

The Covenant
Reviewed by Raven
I was a bit iffy about this movie but it was pretty entertaining once you got past the bad acting and the annoying blonde woman. The fight scene at the end wasn't all that great either and it was on the predictable side. If a sequel doesn't... More

The Land Before Time

Words can't express how integral this film was to my life growing up. It cannot, will not and won't be replace as one of those films I'll always remember. Sometime in the Cretacious Period, the world has gone through many changes which h... More

Zoo Tycoon 2

I played Zoo Tycoon 2, before the original. When I got round to seeing the original game; it seemed prehistoric compared to its sequel. The game hasn't changed in fundementals, build a zoo, more expensive animals generate more visitors... More

Vincent
Reviewed by GemLil
This animated short is well worth the watch, despite its length it is much better than some of Burton's feature length films...such as 'The Corpse Bride'. I'd advise anyone who remotely likes Tim Burton to watch 'Vincent'. Its about a yo... More

Vincent

Vincent, an early Tim Burton short film, is absolutely brilliant and astonishing to watch. Being a huge Burton fan, I completely loved the unique Tim Burton style to it, each of his films he really makes his own, and Vincent is something th... More

**Slight spoilers** It has been quite some time since I last watched the first Legally Blonde film, but I think I actually enjoyed it at the time. I’m not sure what I would think now, but I know that this sequel thoroughly sucked. I at... More

Spaceballs

Mel Brooks has been making movies and parodies since the 60's and I've seen a lot of them and Spaceballs is the best. The story is that the leaders of planet Spaceball have wasted all their air and extorting all the air from their neighb... More

Yes!!! The good die young, as the saying goes. I was heartbroken when they finally canceled this effortlessly brilliant show. But I take consolation in the DVDs, and will keep my fingers crossed for "Arrested Development: The Movie"! More

DOOM

If Wolfenstein 3D is the equivalent of giving birth to the First Person Shooter genre, then DOOM is when the doc takes the baby, smacks its bottom, and makes it cry out to make sure its alive and well. I grew up during the golden age of ... More

Stardust

This movie was quite enjoyable. I probably never would have picked it up except that a co-worker recommended it to me, so I checked it out...and I am glad I did. I didn't like Tristan at first, but that quickly changed, and while corny ... More

The Darjeeling Limited
