Bloodline (Netflix) review

Amazon.com Season 1

 We're not bad people. But, we did a bad thing.

That's a line from one of the characters on the +Netflix US & Canada series Bloodline. The line is only half true, you'll find out by the time you run through the first season that; yes they did a bad thing and they are in fact bad people.

Bloodline tells the story of the Rayburn family who live in the Florida Keys. They run a pretty successful, small resort for people to stay at and enjoy the beautiful weather, scenery and sun. All are welcome, except the black sheep of the family Danny Rayburn. He's not made to feel welcome at all. When this show starts you think he's a loser but as the story goes on, viewers will find out the only difference between Danny and the rest of the Rayburns is that he's open about the things he gets into.

This is one of those shows that makes you think all the bad news about Florida might be true. Florida is great for a lot of things but it has its share of negative press as all places do. That is probably what makes the show good. This prominent family does everything in their power to make themselves look good. In reality they're not very good at all and the characters that come off as bad people seem to be the only honest ones in both seasons of the show.

If you want to know what the 'bad thing' is from that line, check the show out. Both seasons are streaming now on Netflix.

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies.  I watched the entire franchise in two days after not seeing any of the films since I was a kid. I know things are opening up and the weather is nice, but we're not quite out of the COVID-19 woods yet. Since that is the case I am still re-watching old horror flicks and catching ones I might have missed . The Phantasm series stretches to almost 40 years of horror, beginning in what I feel was the best time for horror films, the 80s. The first one, Phantasm (1979) came out when I was still wet behind the ears, barely a kid. I didn't even set eyes on it until the early 80s. All I could remember about the movie was "The Tall Man,' played by Angus Scrimm in all the films, those flying chrome-plated death spheres, and little dudes in cans.  Along with Scrimm, the film stars Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornberry, and Reggie Bannister. Baldwin plays Mike Pearson, who is the...

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love. By looking for things to write about, I found that my love for reading balances out with my love of writing. Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better.  Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King . So, when I went looking for instruction on how he writes, I found his book ...
