Snow changes everything. The entire environment is completely different, and the minute-to-minute operations of life become more complicated and troublesome.
In comics, snow can be a lot of fun. Flakes can fill up the pages and add to the grit and danger in comics like Sin City…
One of my ...

I kid, I just like the gif. But I do prefer prequels.
When are sequels and prequels great to do? What makes a great sequel or prequel?
I believe a lot of us think about expanding our stories, whether it’s in the form of a sequel or a prequel ...
ZOINKS! 13 Ghosts??
damehelsing at 12:00AM, Oct. 31, 2021
So, ladies and gents, friends and furries, yes, 13 Ghosts is the movie that haunted me as a child and to a point, still haunts me. I’ll never look at bathtubs the same.
BUT BEFORE I GET INTO THE MOVIE REVIEW, if you are reading this, and I kind ...
It's the Peak of the Spooky Season!
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 30, 2021
So I want to talk about the Dread Persephone!
We are familiar with Persephone as the abducted bride of Hades, the floral, pastel-themed, light-hearted girl that brings about Spring and is the daughter of Demeter, goddess of nature and the harvest.

I want to play a game…
Here we go lads, lasses, dummy thicc axes, I meant to do a movie review for Scream last week but I saw The Ruins and just felt the need to get into it.
Anyway for Scream! So, be warned, there are spoilers, probably bad ...
Horror, and the Broken
Banes at 12:00AM, Oct. 14, 2021
I'm wounded but you can't see it!
A lot of stories involve a wounded and/or flawed character. It's a staple of strong storytelling; a character has some kind of pain or wound to overcome, and that's the inner journey they take along with whatever outward ...
Not even Dora is exploring this.
damehelsing at 12:00AM, Oct. 10, 2021
So, I found a horror movie recently and even though it’s not serial killer horror or Halloween type of horror, it’s definitely scary.
The movie I will be talking about today: “The Ruins” (2008) – there will be spoilers, so please be warned. The following movie is for mature ...
So Spooky Season has Begun, eh?
damehelsing at 12:00AM, Oct. 3, 2021
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 ...

Through the power of imagery, and what we choose to add or leave out of ...
