Legends Of The Fall: 30th Anniversary

John Stark

Edward Zwick’s sprawling romantic epic turns 30 this year, so naturally, it’s time to take a grown up look at this film. I remember parts of this, from a part in time when my mom would make me close my eyes during certain sequences. Not that 11 year old me was really excited about Legends of The Fall, but it does feel like we should revisit it. After all, it is an Oscar nominee, and has an impressive little ensemble of Anthony Hopkins, Brad Pitt, Julia Ormond, Aidan Quinn, and Henry Thomas. Hopkins plays the patriarch of this family living … Continue reading Legends Of The Fall: 30th Anniversary

Gerald’s Game

John Stark

Where I Watched it: Netflix English Audio description Provided By Descriptive Video Works Narrated by Diane Newman After watching Mike Flanagan’s multiple series for Netflix, I have come to appreciate his brand of horror. he always manages to include gore, but he really is interested in character development.

The moment when Paramount wisely chose not to send this prequel to theatres, and instead dump it on their streaming service. I have poked fun at previous iterations, but Bloodline is truthfully the worst in the series. It does have some talented cast members pop up, sadly not in the leading roles, and is somewhat based on the lore created by the stories Judd tells in both Pet Sematary films. It is just really dull. That’s not to … Continue reading Pet Sematary: Bloodline

Sam and Kate

John Stark

Where I Watched it: iTunes English Audio Description?: no This is one of those examples I brought up about why audio description should be on more things… because households sometimes aren’t like 100% blind, and we all share spaces, and live together? Well, i watched this with someone else that I knew would like a film starring Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek. Because of that, and they know there was no audio description, I got some things explained to me along the way that I would not have been able to understand without. That being said, i will be giving … Continue reading Sam and Kate

Ouija: Origin Of Evil

John Stark

Where I Watched It: Netflix Audio description provided By: The Media Access Group Narrated By: Christopher Flowers Lucky for you, you don’t really need to watch the first one to enjoy the second one. I mean, you can, but you do you. For people becoming increasingly interested in Mike Flanagan and what he brings to the table, whether in film like Netflix’s terrific Hush, or their limited series The Haunting Of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass, and most recently The Midnight Blub, you’ll find a lot of his talents at work in what seems like an … Continue reading Ouija: Origin Of Evil
