  ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Something changed Prue Halliwell on New Year's Eve, when a stranger gave her the most passionate kiss of her life. Now Prue feels driven to kiss every man she meets. At first this is fun, but when Prue starts to grow weaker with every kiss, the Charmed Ones know evil is afoot. Can I just say how happy I am that I decided to read this book series!?! I've always loved Charmed since I was a little girl and the fact that so many years later I can expand more into the Charmed Universe just gives me such nostalgia vibes. This book was so good and honestly could have easily been an episode of Charmed that's how well thought out and written it was.  It's nice seeing the sisters interact with each other and essentially it seems like each book is going to be a new storyline or 'episode'. As I have mentioned in my Charmed tv show review, I did in fact buy a replica of the Book of Shadows but I'm surprised to say that t...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: In this adrenaline-soaked thriller, a hurricane unleashes a feeding frenzy on a town's stranded residents when flood waters draw in a swarm of sharks.  What a better way to enjoy the summer than watching a shark movie? Anyone else had a phase in their childhood where they watched an obscene amount of shark movies? Eventually, I cam across some crazy movies that made you wonder what the writer smoked to come up with some of their ideas. Sand sharks, Sharktopus, and of course Sharknado.  I have to say that this isn't the worst shark movie I've seen. It's not overly complicated, it's well written and the actors were phenomenal! I think what makes it work really well is that it's something that could actually happen. For instance, sharks being in the Saint Lawrence river in Quebec has happened multiple times over the years. Despite people believing that it's not a possibility.  Since I was a little girl, I have h...

***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: A half-demon paranormal investigator questions his defense of humans when a dismembered sorceress rejoins the living to wreak brutal vengeance.  I grew up watching the Hellboy movies so Ron Perlman is my Hellboy. The second movie ended with a cliffhanger of both Hellboy and Liz expecting twins. I'm disappointed we didn't get a follow up to that but instead we got a reboot.  Within the first five minutes, I knew this was going to be a tough watch. What made the original movies great was the serious themes and Del Toro (Director and Writer) knew when it needed some comedic relief. This one, however, everyone has to crack a joke or be funny every single scene. Even when flashing back to Hellboy's origin, it's all gimmicky and gives off a almost cartoonish feel to what should otherwise be a dark and occultic moment.  This was a two hour movie that was tough to watch other than a handful of scenes that piqued my interest. I di...
