Trailer of the Week: Hysteria
Today, once again, I present a movie trailer, though this one…well, it might not be good for those in their tender years or with sensitive dispositions (consider yourself warned ). For my money, I think this looks hilarious and I whole-heartedly pray that the best bits aren’t in this trailer alone. I’m thinking Hugh Dancy is a great choice in the role of Dr. Mortimer Granville. He has a definite boyish charm with just … Read entire article »

Spotlight: Wanderlove by Kirsten Hubbard
It all begins with a stupid question: Are you a Global Vagabond? No, but 18-year-old Bria Sandoval wants to be. In a quest for independence, her neglected art, and no-strings-attached hookups, she signs up for a guided tour of Central America—the wrong one. Middle-aged tourists with fanny packs are hardly the key to self-rediscovery. When Bria meets Rowan, devoted backpacker and dive instructor, and his outspokenly humanitarian sister Starling, she seizes the chance to … Read entire article »

Trailer of the Week: Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter
I decided that this week’s featured video would be another movie trailer. I had seen this one around in its book form and was curious about the read. Now, having seen the images in the movie preview, I want more! Check it out for yourself: I love the Johnny-Cash-esque-talk over the action. (Or is it really the Man in Black himself?) This looks to have some great special effects and putting vampires into historical setting can … Read entire article »
