Saturday Nov 23, 2013

Inter-dimensional travel between planes seems to be the only way Bo will become reunited with her family. Tamsin regenerates while Hale insists on taking baby steps regarding a relationship with Kenzie. Wayne displays his medical acumen, and both point out the writers were put in the unenviable position of telling the stories without Anna Silk.

Friday Nov 15, 2013

Well, we're finally back. At least some of us are back as Bo, Lauren and Tamsin are MIA in the season premiere that finds the gang devoid of any memories of Bo, and though it's somewhat disconcerting to be without the archetypal Lost Girl, we do bear witness to a number of new and different relationship dynamics. While Wayne liked the episode a lot, Dave found it lacking in a number of areas.

Episode 51 World War Z

Friday Nov 01, 2013

Friday Nov 01, 2013

In the final installment of our zombie pilgrimage, we look at the Brad Pitt blockbuster film World War Z. We never learn the cause, and the hero fails to find a cure or vaccine, but the technical aspects of the film are spectacular. Mireille Enos, from The Killing stars as Pitt's wife, and Peter Capaldi, set to star as the 12th Doctor, round out the cast.

After reading and talking about the infamous underwear scene in the latest installment in the Star Trek franchise, Star Trek Into Darkness, the guys couldn't stay out of the fray. Not surprisingly, Dave and Wayne disagree on the validity of the scene, and Wayne's son even weighs in briefly.

Forced out of their usual digs, Dave and Wayne battle the forces of nature to finally bring their review of FOX's new supernatural show Sleepy Hollow to fruition.

Episode 48 Evil Dead 2

Tuesday Sep 17, 2013

Tuesday Sep 17, 2013

Sam Raimi's cult classic hit the theaters in 1987 and gave the director his entrance into the major movie industry. One of the first comedy-horror films, Evil Dead 2 also provided a break for Bruce Campbell, who's had recurring roles in Xena and Hercules, but a major role in USA Network's Burn Notice. Though Dave and Wayne frequently disagree, it's fair to say they were on polar opposite ends of the spectrum on this one.

Episode 47 The Others

Saturday Aug 31, 2013

Saturday Aug 31, 2013

Wayne and Dave examine the quintessential ghost film The Others starring Nicole Kidman, Christopher Eccleston and Finnoula Flanagan. Set in a remote house in Jersey on the Channel Islands, we see the struggle for coexistence between the living and the dead.

Thursday Aug 15, 2013

Introduced in the 8th episode of the first season, the evil dark fae mesmer Vex has become one of the show's most popular characters. Now, though, we're not sure with which side Vex has aligned himself. Could he perhaps become unaligned? Watch Captain Canuck

Saturday Aug 10, 2013

Wayne expands on our discussion of Orphan Black and the implications human cloning bring with it. Zeroing in on the classic Aldous Huxley novel Brave New World, we examine possible futures if this burgeoning technology is misused. The BBC produced a version in 1980. Watch it here.
