Book Review: ‘Doctor Who: Revelation of the Daleks’ by Eric Saward

The planet of Necros, as the name implies, is a pretty quiet place. This is because it’s one giant cemetery. Aside from the few people who maintain the structures and oversee the funerals (I’m sorry, the “Posture for Perpetual Instatement”), all the “residents” of Necros are either dead or cryogenically frozen to be reanimated once cures are found. However, things aren’t

‘Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget’ is a Fantastic Family Film

How many of you remember Chicken Run, the stop-motion animated film from the early 2000s? I’m sure almost everyone my age has at least heard of the film, if not a distinct memory of the film from DreamWorks Animation’s early days.

Review: ‘Godzilla Minus One’ is a Monster Blockbuster Befitting the Franchise Legacy

Amidst the post-war rubble and lingering trauma of nuclear destruction still present today in the world, Godzilla Minus One emerges as a blockbuster befitting a franchise that, like society, has transformed over the past 70 years. It continues breathing new life into kaiju stories. Still, instead of rehashing the political satire of 2016’s Shin Godzilla, it returns to the story’s roots, where Godzilla first emerged from

Book Review: ‘Shield Maiden’ by Sharon Emmerichs

We’ve all heard of “Beowulf.” Some of us may even remember Grendel or his much scarier mother.

What kid wouldn’t love to visit a chocolate factory? Especially one as fantastic as Willy Wonka’s eccentric factory? But be careful what you wish for because things aren’t always what they seem.
