{Sunday Post} — and the Broken Record Continues


What Am I Reading? 


I wasn't planning to post anything today, but here I am, writing this on a Sunday evening while enjoying Lacuna Coil's new album. I'm sounding like a broken record—my reading mojo is still in limbo. Currently, I'm stuck on chapter five of Lee Child's Persuader. If all goes according to plan, I’ll squeeze in some reading tonight and push through this block to finish the book before the season premiere of Reacher on Thursday.

{Giveaway} — WOLF MAN (2025) Digital MA (Movies Anywhere)


Good news! I'm partnering with Universal Pictures Home Entertainment for a chance to win the new horror movie WOLF MAN (2025) on Digital MA (Movies Anywhere). 

From Blumhouse and the director of The Invisible Man, WOLF MAN offers a modern twist on the classic monster story. Blake moves his wife, Charlotte, and daughter, Ginger, to his childhood home in rural Oregon for a fresh start. Soon after they arrive, an animal attack forces the family to lock themselves inside as an unseen creature roams outside. As the night goes on, Blake gets worse, and his strange behavior becomes frightening. To keep Ginger safe, Charlotte must choose between facing the danger outside or the growing fear inside. 

[Review] — Leigh Whannell's WOLF MAN Lacks Bite


Why is it so hard to restart the Universal Monster Universe? The 2010 remake of The Wolfman bombed at the box office, even though I found it enjoyable. Then there was The Mummy in 2017, starring Tom Cruise, a total flop. This pretty much stopped any plans for a shared Dark Universe. However, 2020 brought us The Invisible Man, written and directed by Leigh Whannell and produced by Blumhouse. That one did well both financially and critically, giving fans a bit of hope for the future. Unfortunately, those hopes were dashed with this year's release of WOLF MAN. Despite being co-written and directed by Whannell and produced by Blumhouse, the film fell flat and struggled at the box office. It’s now trying to make a comeback with its recent digital release and an upcoming physical release—LIMITED EDITION STEELBOOK, 4K UHD, BLU-RAY™ & DVD coming on March 18, 2025.
