Hi! So Spooky Season has begun and my brain has gone into fart mode and it's currently slow on bringing up topics right now!
But I thought something interesting would be to do a review on movies, pick them apart, talk about what's good and what's bad ...
So Spooky Season has Begun, eh?

Banes at 12:00AM, Sept. 9, 2021
I've had the conversation multiple times - maybe based on something I read in the past - that the

I decided to give the first episode of Riverdale chance after seeing lots of its merchandise advertised in the local Hot Topic and several teenagers recommending it. If anyone is late to the party (as I was), Riverdale is a series based off of the 1939 Archie Comics. It shares ...
