Review'Stake Land'

Two survivors cross a grim wasteland overrun by vampires; film hits stores Aug. 2

stakeland072911.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. An apocalyptic world overrun by the dead is often the foundation of any epic zombie tale. However, in Dark Sky Films' "Stake Land," vampires are on the prowl, not the shambling corpses of the walking dead. America is a ruined wasteland, dominated by pockets of ...

Review'Supernatural' - The Man Who Knew Too Much

Amnesia, Humpty Dumpty and godhood: must be a 'Supernatural' season finale

superantural100510.jpg

They could have easily called this one "My Three Sams," as a large part of the episode was spent with Sam (Jared Padalecki) "finding himself" in the confines of his own mind. In the end though, Sam's rediscovery of himself took a backseat to Castiel's (Misha Collins) defeat of Raphael (Lannette Ware ...

Review'Supernatural' - Let It Bleed

Lisa and Ben prove to be a weak spot for Dean and the series

supernat110110.jpg

At the end of this episode, Lisa (Cindy Sampson) and Ben (Nicholas Elia) had their memories erased by Castiel (Misha Collins), making it as if they had never known Dean (Jensen Ackles). Perhaps there is an angel out there who can erase those two unpopular characters from fan’s minds. The episod ...

Review'Supernatural' - Mommy Dearest

The Winchester Brothers have mother issues on multiple levels

supernat111110.jpg

“Supernatural” shifted course a bit suddenly with this episode. As viewers were expecting the season to build to a final confrontation between the Winchester boys and Eve (Julia Maxwell), “the Mother of All,” it turns out that Eve won’t even make it to the season finale. In fact, she fails ...

Review'Supernatural' - The Man Who Would Be King

The road to hell is indeed paved with good intentions

supernat051211.jpg

The writers of “Supernatural” apparently decided what worked once can work again. Turning Sam (Jared Padalecki) worked well enough, so now it was time to turn another character to the dark side. This time, it's Castiel (Misha Collins) who drew the short straw and now must succumb to the powers o ...

Review'Supernatural' - Frontierland

If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, then the 'Back to the Future' series should feel very flattered

superantural101210.jpg

I kept looking for the silver DeLorean and the clock tower. To say that “Frontierland” borrowed elements from the “Back to the Future” series would be the biggest understatement since Noah said, “It looks like rain.” Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki) somehow convince Cast ...

Review'Supernatural' - My Heart Will Go On

Apparently, not even Angels could have saved the Titanic.

supernat111710.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. Sometimes, a short description fails to do an episode justice. Balthazar (Sebastian Roche) goes back in time and keeps the Titanic from sinking, and people who never should have been born start dying horrible deaths. It sounds really stupid when it is explained l ...

Review'Being Human' - I Want You Back (From The Dead)

It's a very, very mad world

beinghuman031511.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. Death is a big deal. Or something. So we can just ignore most of Josh's (Sam Huntington) plot in this episode, because monster or not, a werewolf isn't a dead thing. But back to death. Sally (Meaghan Rath) has another afterlife obstacle to tackle, and Aidan ...

Review'Supernatural' - And Then There Were None

Family members turn on each other, and a high body count ensues.

supernat031011.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. Only "Supernatural" would use the death of three of its recurring characters to illustrate the importance of family. In the end, each major character kills someone close to them, but they emerge from the experience with a better understanding of family. Eve (J ...

Review'Being Human' - Children Shouldn't Play With Undead Things

Just because they shouldn't play with undead things, doesn't mean they don't

beinghuman030911.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. So in case you've missed it, Sally (Meaghan Rath) is still a ghost. That's not changing anytime soon -- or ever, if we want to keep this show going, really -- but we still have to go through Sally coming to terms with her ghostness. And what better way than to ...

Review'The Vampire Diaries' - The House Guest

Two dead witches, a new vampire and the return of a big bad!

vampd030111.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. Two dead witches, a new vampire and the return of a big bad makes for a good week! Presumably, this house guest is Isobel (Mia Kirshner), who sneaks up on the Gilbert house just in time to reveal to Jenna (Sara Canning) who Alaric (Matthew Davis) really is, an ...

Review'Being Human' - I See Your True Colors ... And That's Why I Hate You

The truth is kind of terrifying

beinghuman011711.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. So "Being Human" seems to have done it -- it's made the transition from just a remake with similar storylines to the original to something that can be called a separate entity from it. "I See Your True Colors ... and That's Why I Hate You" was certainly the most ...

Review'Supernatural' - The French Mistake

The CW series finally jumps the shark!

supernat022811.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. After some of the weaker episodes of this sixth season, I have commented that it appears that the writers of this series are clearly running out of ideas. Recycling old monsters and familiar storylines is commonplace for many long running series, and it would be ...

Review'Being Human' - It Takes Two To Make A Thing Go Wrong

What exactly is 'human nature'?

beinghuman022311.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. "What sets a human apart from a monster?" While that was a question posed during an Aidan (Sam Witwer) voice-over, it was perhaps Sally's (Meaghan Rath) plot in the episode that best answered it. Sure, she's dead and a ghost, but the thing that makes her less ...

Review'The Vampire Diaries' - The Dinner Party

A few thrilling parts soar, but not Stefan and Elena's relationship

vampd021910.jpg

This review may contain spoilers. The week's episode certainly thrilled in parts, but the couple we should care about the most, Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Elena (Nina Dobrev), continue to bore.   Not even some less than thrilling flashbacks can save them from the depths of the mundane, and being ...
