Skewed Reviews of movies that I have either actually watched or, at the very least....read the "Cracked" version of....

Books

Big Trouble
Dave Barry

A mystery novel told in the true South Florida style, Big Trouble delivers in a big way. If only a film version could be made so that Floridians could actually know the story!
I lived in South Florida throughout the Disco 70's and can tell you that as strange as this tale is....it COULD HAPPEN in that locale. Barry is as great an author as he is a humor columnist. In a word...READ IT!

Movies

Lone Mutant of Atomic Beach
Director: Nolan B. Canova

One of the scariest and funniest movies of the late 90s. Some people didn't like the main character, but I found him fascinating and charming in a squirmy sort of way. Also one of the best and least contrived, albeit scary endings I've seen in a movie recently. The monster is great!

Josh Rouse

A quirky sophomore effort by a singer-songwriter to watch. Starts strong ("Marvin Gaye" and "Direction" are standouts) but eventually all the songs begin to sound alike, which is unfortunate. Josh should maybe hire a producer more willing to experiment with his sound.
