Ghostbusters Afterlife poster

  I’m a little late seeing Ghostbusters: Afterlife but you know what they say, “Better late than never.” Well, mostly it’s better to be late experiencing something than to miss out altogether.

Louvre doll

Updated March 9, 2023 The trailer for The Night House was exceptional. Its job worked immediately, making me wonder where the house was located and what was up with the creepy-looking doll, which I’ve since learned is called a Louvre doll.

Treat Podcast Movie starring Kiernan Shipka cover photo

What’s the difference between an audio drama and a podcast movie? Well, I’d never actually heard of a podcast movie until I learned about Treat, a podcast movie from C13Features that stars Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Mad Men). However, basically, they’re the same thing. Some audio dramas, suchContinue Reading

Night view of Egon Spengler's Farmhouse with Ghostbuster's car from Ghostbusters: Afterlife

In real life, Harold Ramis, the man who played Egon Spengler in the original Ghostbusters movies, died in 2014. Fittingly, even though he can’t physically be part of the much-anticipated third movie in the franchise, his spirit will still very much be a part of Ghostbusters: Afterlife. In fact, theContinue Reading
