Farscape (1999-2004) series review
Rated: 4 / 5 One of the few shows out there that managed to maintain being consistent in quality throughout its existence. It's a show I never appreciated as much as I should've.

Matilda (1996) review
Rated: 2.5 / 5 Everyone is born, but not everyone is born the same. Some will grow to be butchers, or bakers, or candlestick makers. Some will only be really good at making Jell-O salad.

The Evil Dead (1981, 2013) review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 Book of the Dead There aren't many horror films like this I actually enjoy. By all accounts, I shouldn't be enjoying this one. It has a lot of the tropes I really hate.
