Forget the logics; the stars, premise, and thrills make the show dangerous. I don’t watch much television thrillers, but when I’ve gotten word that “Hunters” is the first series to star Al […]

The Lodge & Call of the Wild video reviews
This week’s video reviews consist of the nationwide release of the horror film “The Lodge,” and Harrison Ford in the new film version of Jack London’s “The Call of the Wild.” The […]
The Call of the Wild

The Photograph
The past and present show no red eyes in their images, and that’s fine by me. “The Photograph” is a romance drama that isn’t just about the relationship between two strangers; it’s […]
