I wasn’t sure what to expect from this movie. I’d read the book several years ago and had mixed feelings about it. While I enjoyed joining the characters on their travels, there were stretches of their journey that I found tedious, and at times I had to force myself to keep reading. So I […]

Viewed on January 3, 2013 on Netflix Streaming Could have used a little more violence. That is something no one will ever say about The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) unless they find sarcasm the height of hilarity or maybe if they’re a sociopath. This movie is brutal!

Viewed on December 29, 2012 on Netflix Streaming I started watching this movie a couple of years ago. It was late at night, and by late I mean the sun was coming up. Too late for my brain to follow the odd anachronistic dialogue, but I was intrigued and always knew I’d finish it someday. Well […]
