True Blood |Season 2 Episode 9: I Will Rise Up (Review)

***This review will contain spoilers***

This episode started with a bang. The bomb that Luke had strapped on himself went off and a few vampires and humans died. This episode was extremely depressing but also didn't make sense in certain areas. 

Starting off with Bon Temps, things are definitely heating up! Maryann is on the hunt for Sam and has enlisted the townspeople to find him and bring him to her. Sam ends up finding Andy, seeking his help and I'm curious how those two will team up together. I love that Lafayette and Tara's mother went to Sookie's house to have an intervention/ to abduct Tara. Honestly, it was the best thing they could do considering her and Eggs were attacking them. Gotta say Lafayette knows how to kick some ass! Still my favourite character! 

Even during a crisis Eric is still self-serving. He tricks Sookie into drinking his blood by having her suck the silver bullets out of him. Of course, Bill was not thrilled. He said that even though she consumed only a little bit of Eric's blood she will still feel drawn to him and become sexually attracted to him as well. When Bill and Sookie first met, Bill gave her a shit ton of his blood to heal her. He basically confessed to her that he forced a bond on her and that's why she felt so drawn to him and was dreaming about him. I'm so surprised that Sookie didn't catch on to that. 

I am beyond curious why the vampires didn't vamp away as soon as they saw the bomb? They are incredibly fast or they could have literally yeeted Luke out of the house. How do a bunch of vampires not react? I totally called it! Godric felt guilty of all of those who died and instead of using his two thousand years of wisdom and experience he decides to meet the sun. 

I feel like his death doesn't match up to the flashback scenes we've seen. I think if they would have kept his character alive instead of him committing suicide, he should have gone back to Shreveport with Eric and we'd be able to see more of their maker/ progeny dynamic which we have yet to truly see. Bill doesn't give a shit about Jessica and even pawned her off to Eric when he could. We also haven't seen a whole lot of Eric and Pam. So if they would have kept Godric around instead of being a martyr we would have been introduced to such a different relationship. Heck, they really could have done a spin-off about those two and the shenanigans' they have gotten themselves into over the centuries. As a (writer) I wept for his loss and potential storylines they could've done with him.

When I read the description on the box I was praying to God that this would work because as I've previously stated in the past few blog posts I've written; this summer my skin has been freaking out with pimples and in consequence I have dark spots all over my chin area where I previously had pimples...

True Blood: Season 1 Episode 6 Cold Ground (Episode Review)

Image
((((((This review contains spoilers.)))))) Adele Stackhouse is dead and of course Sookie is in shock but damn everyone keeps on bugging her. Can everyone just let the poor girl grieve? Of course Sam and Bill have to seize each other up. My question is why does Bill think he knows Sookie so well? Dude, you've known her maybe a week tops. Or has he known her for a week as he would like everyone to believe? I don't understand how Sookie was able to clean up the kitchen after her grandmother was murdered in it. It's a shame that Adele died she was such a gentle spirit.  Jason is just slowly deteriorating beyond belief. Addicted to vampire blood, suspected of several murders and now hitting his own sister. Thank God for Tara and Lafayette because they are amazing friends. They are funny and caring I wish they were my friends.  Sookie yelling and cursing at everyone during the funeral just made me laugh so much. I would react the same way if not worse had I been abl...

Ouija: Origin Of Evil (Movie Review)

Image
(((((Please be warned there are spoilers))))) Movie Summary: In 1960's California, a fake medium's daughter tries to communicate with her late father through a Ouija board, but unleashes a demon instead. This movie is the prequel of the movie Ouija which I have already reviewed. The review for the movie Ouija is here. In the movie we are introduced to the Zander family. The widowed mother Alice and her two daughters Paulina and Doris. Due to losing her husband, Alice becomes the sole provider for her family and to earn some sort of income she performs séances to help her clients get closure from their passed loved ones. She makes money off of scamming people and she uses both her daughters to do it. Personally, I think it's really fucked up to exploit someone's pain and grief to make a few quick bucks. But using her own logic, through deceit she is able to provide some sort of comfort and closure. It does not take too long for Alice to incorporate the po...
