So I was about 30 years too old to go see the new film (based on the book which I surprisingly never read as a kid) Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day but I still had … Continue reading
Dracula Untold is yet another vampire movie, this one being an origin story of a superhero Dracula that pulls upon a certain amount of historical events. Vlad (the Impaler) wants to protect his family and the rest of Transylvania from … Continue reading
