A Quiet Place Part II (2020)

January 16, 2022 by Steve Leave a Comment

Shhhh, Keep Our Islands Secret A Quiet Place Part II (2020) Let's do this. Keep quiet about it though, since I'm going to try to rip through this quickly and I don't want anyone hearing I'm getting lazy. Shhhhhhhh... I saw A Quiet Place on a plane somewhere over the Atlantic on one of my many trips to Europe … [Read more...]

Beetlejuice (1988)

October 31, 2021 by Steve Leave a Comment

Third Times a Charm Beetlejuice (1988) Arguably the most well-known and certainly one of the most watched Connecticut movies. Oh?

October 30, 2021 by Steve Leave a Comment

A Connecticut Yankee in Hee Haw's Barnyard The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia (2013) I can't think of too many movies where you absolutely know going in, based on the title alone, you will hate yourself for watching it.

The Other (1972)

October 27, 2021 by Steve Leave a Comment

The Twinning The Other, 1972 I simply cannot read every "Connecticut book," nor do I want to. However, I certainly plan on reading one or two of Thomas Tryon's novels. The son of Arthur Lane Tryon, owner of Stackpole, Moore & Tryon in Hartford, Tryon grew up in Connecticut and went on to be a moderately successful … [Read more...]

The Devil’s Mercy (2007)

December 3, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

The Devil Made Me Watch It The Devil's Mercy, 2007 You may (rightly) ask yourselves if I hate myself. Why else, you wonder, do I keep suffering through these abysmal Connecticut movies? Well, I'm happy to tell you that I don't hate myself. Not even a little bit. But yes, I do hate some of the decisions I've made … [Read more...]

The Haunting in Connecticut (2009)

September 15, 2020 by Steve Leave a Comment

Boooo! The Haunting in Connecticut, 2009 Straight up: I'm not a horror film fan. Sure, there are a few I've liked. From the campy fun (Evil Dead) to the cool (The Ring) to the not-really-horror (Get Out). By and large, they're all terrible. I simply don't enjoy torture and gore and cheap scares. The … [Read more...]
