***This movie will contain spoilers*** Summary: In the 1830s, estate agent Thomas Hutter travels to Transylvania for a fateful meeting with Count Orlok, a prospective client. In his absence, Hutter's new bride, Ellen, is left under the care of their friends, Friedrich and Anna Harding. Plagued by horrific visions and an increasing sense of dread, Ellen soon encounters an evil force that's far beyond her control. I watched this movie last night in theatre with my boyfriend at our local cineplex since they were having a special of $5 per ticket for the next few Tuesdays and this is the first time in a long time I regret my movie pick. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect since I maybe saw the trailer for a few seconds but I expected so much better. I've never left a movie theatre feeling so defiled and needing to go to church the day after. I've seen some disturbing movies over the years but this movie really takes it to another level. I've seen the Terrifier mov...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: In the small college town of Morganville, vampires and humans lived in (relative) peace-until all the rules got rewritten when the evil vampire Bishop arrived, looking for the lost book of vampire secrets. He's kept a death grip on the town ever since. Now an underground resistance is brewing, and in order to contain it, Bishop must go to even greater lengths. He vows to obliterate the town and all its inhabitants-the living and the undead. Claire Danvers and her friends are the only ones who stand in his way. But even if they defeat Bishop, will the vampires ever be content to go back to the old rules, after having such a taste of power? Another fantastic book in the Morganville series! I seem to be a broken record but damn it I’ll say it again. I am beyond impressed by how much Caine is able to include in a book with only a couple hundred pages. I’ve wasted my time on reading books with triple the amount of pages and maybe with 5%...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: With the imminent destruction of Krypton, their home planet, Jor-El and his wife seek to preserve their race by sending their infant son to Earth. The child's spacecraft lands at the farm of Jonathan and Martha Kent, who name him Clark and raise him as their own son. Though his extraordinary abilities have led to the adult Clark living on the fringe of society, he finds he must become a hero to save those he loves from a dire threat.  I've watched a few of the DCEU movies over the last decade but to be honest I haven't really gotten a chance to watch all of them. And with James Gunn heading every DC project I have full confidence that he will usher in a new era of movie making. He's produced and directed some of my favourite childhood movies and growing up I was a DC kid and boy as an adult it has been embarrassing just how bad DC movies have gotten. Recently, they released the trailer for Superman and it looks really go...

I have been an avid fan of Lush for a few years now and if you know anything about Lush then you know that the biggest day of the year is Boxing Day. Their Boxing Day Sale has items typically from their Halloween and Christmas collections on sale for 50% off. Now if you follow me on any of my social media accounts then you know I am obsessed with Lush and how can I not take advantage of the sale?  This year though things were a little bit different. I'm not sure why but they keep pushing us to use their app to make purchases. At first, it was using the app for early access to some of their new collections and collaborations but for Boxing Day you could only use the app to make an order on their items marked down. I kid you not, Christmas day I kept scrolling social media and Reddit to see if anyone knew what time the sale would start and no one was able to say what time. That day as well every time I would go to the app I would get an error message, essentially, saying there's ...

I must be spending too much time on TikTok but the algorithm somehow brought me to the side of ColorTok. From the Disney coloring books to the Ohuhu markers I have become obsessed with not only watching coloring videos but coloring itself. Thank goodness for Amazon and their speedy deliveries because I just couldn't wait to get my hands on some coloring books and markers.  Financially, I'm a few hundred dollars deep in this new hobby of mine. And while I am writing this out I have a pending order waiting to be shipped to me. Of course, I included a few items that I desperately need that isn't related to coloring to try to convince myself I don't have a problem. And to get free delivery...of course!  When I first started on this journey I had a Crayola set of markers and I was on the hunt for some cool coloring books. Well color me impressed (see what I did there? Pun intended) that retail stores weren't able to help me find the coloring books I was looking for. I do...
