First, I want to say thanks to the people who sent me a private message to get better. I am getting a little better, but not by much. Still recovering, but I think I’ll be 100 percent soon. Now, to my review of Halloween II. This movie stunk. If anyone could have desecrated John Carpenter’s…

A Different Kind of Convention
With the New York and San Diego Comic-cons concluded, there leaves much to be desired for next year’s conventions.
