Lately, I find myself gravitating more towards great television than movies. Maybe it’s a time commitment thing, or a short attention span on my part. Either way, I’ve been pretty impressed at how the wave of genre television has spun back around, and how well done everything is. We’re gonna …

Welcome Home was a sometimes creepy – sometimes creeper – kind of flick. The mark of a good director is that they can change the tone of a film at the drop of a hat, and George Ratliff (Joshua 2007) defiantly pulls this off effortlessly. Welcome Home will make you …
