Sinister Movie Review: disturbing relentless horror

Sinister concerns a writer, Ellison Oswalt (Ethan Hawke), who has moved to a new house with his wife, 12-year-old son and young daughter. He writes true crime novels, and has moved to this particular house to research a… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — Junkyard Cyborg

A trip to the junkyard gives the last five Face Off contestants the ingredients to build their own cyborgs. Does it matter if you don’t really know what a cyborg is? Kind of. It was funny watching the different reactions of each contestant when they entered the junkyard and found out they’d be building cyborgs. Roy (fabrication king) and Laura (Terminator fan, Sarah Connor-in-training) were delighted. Derek and Nicole were worried due to their lack of fabrication skill. Sarah was confused because Mennonite. During the… Read More »

SyFy Face Off — “Monster Twist”

The contestants try to step outside of their design comfort zones while working with the most immature clients ever, and a previously eliminated contestant returns on the Day of the Dead. Face Off! Can I just take a moment here to point out what a missed opportunity it is that Face Off has never had a hockey-themed challenge? Look at the name of the show, people! That phrase makes me think two things: hockey and leprosy (not John Travolta or Nic Cage). Come to think… Read More »
