  • Eternity Never Ends: Let’s Talk About A Short Stay In Hell

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping Steven L. Peck’s A Short Stay in Hell into the ol’ VCR. 

    Yes friends, the rumors are true: I’m officially in my reading era. 

    I’ve always loved reading, but with work, life, running a pop culture blog, etc…, I just don’t have a lot of time to read. 

    I decided last year that I give myself more time to read, so I started bringing a book to read between movies, and I’ll have you know that I actually read six whole books last year. 

    This year, we’re already on #4. 

    (Hold for applause) 

    And we’ve gotta talk about one of the books I’ve recently read. 

    A Short Stay in Hell came as a recommendation from my brother-in-law, and I read the entire novella in just shy of 24 hours. 

    Here’s a quick rundown of the plot: 

    The story is told from the POV of Soren Johansson, a life-long Mormon, dies after a battle with cancer, only to find the ideas of heaven and hell he’s subscribed to his entire life are vastly incorrect. 

    As someone who deconstructed, I was in love with this novella from the very first page. 

    From the Adult Swim-esque opening to the tragic love story between Rachel and Soren and the mirror it holds up to religion, I was hooked. 

    A Short Stay in Hell is not only brilliant for its existential themes but its ability to paint a poignant and vivid picture in your mind’s eye; I could sincerely picture every single character and scene perfectly. 

    However, there’s one problematic angle I do want to address here. 

    From what I can tell, Steven L. Peck is still a practicing Mormon. 

    As will all religions, I’m not here to say that every single person within a religion is bad or hypocritical. 

    But, as with all religions, there are some really dark and inappropriate practices (to say the least) within the Mormon faith. 

    Personally, I do believe this novella reads from the perspective as someone questioning their faith and/or beginning a journey of deconstruction, but according to my research, he’s still practicing. 

    I would just be remiss if I didn’t address this because y’all know I have religious trauma and major critiques around religion as a whole. 

    Moving on. 

    If you’re looking for a quick read that’ll live rent-free in your head for several weeks and love movies like Saved!, I definitely recommend this one. 

    Also, pick it up from your local bookstore, if you can. 

    Times are hard for small businesses, and we need to look out for each other when and where we can. 

  • Ringing In Valentine’s Day: My Three Ideal Proposals

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping my ideal proposals into the ol’ VCR. 

    Now, I want to be so clear about two things up top: 

    1. I’m not in a relationship, and I can assure you that if I were, y’all would know, as I openly share my love life with the internet.
    1. I know the likelihood of getting any of these proposals is probably slim to none, but hey, a girl can dream, and you have to keep a sense of whimsy in the current hellscape we’re living in. 

    Alrighty. Let’s get into it. 

    If you don’t know, Valentine’s Day is actually one of my favorite holidays and leans into the Elle Woods part of my Elle Woods/Elvira personality. 

    I’ve said this before, but I love Valentine’s Day because it doesn’t just represent romantic love; it’s a celebration of love, in general, be it self-love, platonic love, etc… 

    However, today, we are gonna play in the romantic love space. 

    You see, as someone who grew up in the era of rom coms and is also a creative (🥴), I do, occasionally, partake in some romantic fantasies. 

    I’m not someone who’s had my entire wedding planned since childhood or anything, but there are a few key pieces I’ve thought about. 

    For example, if I ever get married, I want to walk down the aisle to “Fade Into You” by Mazzy Star, I’d love for my first dance to be to “Reflecting Light” by Sam Phillips (aka the song Lorelai and Luke dance to at Liz’s wedding in Gilmore Girls), and I’d like to get married in the fall. 

    I don’t have any other strong preferences for a wedding (which is obviously subject to change). 

    But I do have three ideal proposals. 

    And, again, I’ll be 100% fine if I didn’t get proposed to in any of these ways, but I thought it would be fun to share them with you, in order of the most to least delusional. 

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers. 

    Without further ado, here are my three ideal proposals: 

    10 Things I Hate About You musical number proposal 

    Here’s the deal. I know how involved this would be, but I will say that my alma mater has a soccer field that looks like the one in 10 Things I Hate About You, so I think it could work? Maybe? Plus, as someone who was in marching band throughout high school, y’all know I have a soft spot for a stand tune. Finally, people have been replacing “baby” with my name in songs my entire life, and I can’t name a better time to sub it in than a proposal.

    Gilmore Girls “A thousand yellow daisies” proposal 

    While this proposal doesn’t require an entire (and literal) song and dance, the logistics on this one are crazy. For those unfamiliar, Max proposes to Lorelai with a thousand yellow daisies in Gilmore Girls, and even though he sucks, the scene of Lorelai surrounded by daisies in the lobby of the Independence Inn is one of my favorites in the entire series. The only problem is that I don’t want to be wasteful, so I don’t know how it would be possible to pull this off in a sustainable way.

    Schitt’s Creek “Simply the best” proposal 

    David and Patrick are one of my favorite modern pop culture couples, and as someone who identifies as a Patrick sun, I would love nothing more than to be serenated with Noah Reid’s cover of “Simply the Best.” Again, I know that there’s still a level of planning needed here, but IMO, it’s easier than trying to find a eco-friendly way to bring me a thousand yellow daisies or stage an entire musical number.

  • You’re The Man (Derogatory): My Favorite Anti-Establishment Movies

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite anti-establishment movies into the ol’ VCR. 

    I’ve lived in my city for 16 years, and I’ve seen a lot of good places shutter their windows. 

    Hell, I’ve worked at and tried to save several of them. 

    And right now, some changes are happening at a place I love, and they’re making me feel some type of way. 

    That’s why the theme of this week is, “Damn the man!” 

    And today, I’d like to share with you some of my favorite anti-establishment movies. 

    At risk of sounding like I’m just going through a phase, I’ve curated some of my favorite movies that make you want to throw a rooftop concert to try to save your beloved record shop, if you catch my drift. 

    See? I wasn’t kidding when I told all of you that this week had a very specific feel. 

    Thank you for riding this angst out with us. 🖤

    Also, as always, be sure to check out the CWs/TWs on these movies because some of these movies are more violent than others, and movies 

    Without further ado, here are 10 of my favorite anti-establishment movies: 

  • Stay Rich Or Die Tryin’: Some Of My Favorite High-Society Horror

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite high-society horror into the ol’ VCR. 

    The theme of this week on B Movies is going to be “Damn the man!” 

    That’s why I thought we should kick off the week with some of my favorite high-society horror movies. 

    These movies include the elite being both the predator and prey (and in some cases, both), but the common thread is that the wealthy set the backdrop. 

    I’d also love to give an honorable mention to Slasher: Flesh and Blood. 

    We’re only focusing on movies today, but it’s another perfect example of high-society content that I highly recommend. 

    Additionally, I do need to throw out a couple of disclaimers. 

    Definitely read the CWs and TWs for this content before watching. 

    The majority of these movies are extremely violent, and American Psycho basically needs every trigger warning under the sun. 

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers. 

    Without further ado, here are 10 of my favorite high-society horror movies:  

  • Is There A Doctor In (This Episode Of) House?: Some Of My Favorite Medical (And Medical-Adjacent) Content

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite medical content into the ol’ VCR. 

    Friends, I was so excited about today’s piece. 

    I thought, “I’ve watched so many medical shows and movies. This’ll be a breeze!”

    But today’s the day I actually found out how many medical shows and movies I haven’t seen. 

    Nurse Jackie? The Resident? The Pitt? Nope, nope, and nope. 

    I haven’t even seen Grey’s Anatomy. 

    So, things are a little leaner than I had hoped, and I had to get a little creative. 

    HOWEVER, I do think this list is pretty solid. 

    Now, let’s hit a couple of disclaimers. 

    First and foremost, some of these shows and movies are older, so keep that in mind while watching. 

    Secondly, I had to expand the definition of “medical” a smidge, so please know going in that not everything on this list is a medical drama and/or procedural. 

    Lastly, definitely look up the CWs/TWs for some of this content before watching. 

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers. 

    Without further ado, here’s some of my favorite medical (and medical-adjacent) content: 

  • The World Of The Amazing Digital Circus: Part One

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping The Amazing Digital Circus into the ol’ VCR. 

    During our unplanned hiatus, I got really into The Film Theorists and binged a good chunk of their videos. 

    And that, friends, is how I finally found out about The Amazing Digital Circus. 

    (And yes, I know I’m behind here) 

    Harlan Ellison’s I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream is one of my favorite horror short stories, so you can imagine my delight to not only find a series based on it but an animated series based on it. 

    And y’all, it’s so freakin’ good. 

    But let’s back up. 

    The Amazing Digital Circus is the brainchild of Gooseworx and is centered around a group of characters navigating a seemingly inescapable digital landscape run by an AI-generated host named Caine (Alex Richon). 

    In each episode, the group is met with some sort of adventure and/or challenge that often correlates with their own personal traumas. 

    The group consists of Ragatha (Amanda Hufford), Pomni (Lizzie Freeman), Jax (Michael Kovach), Gangle (Marissa Lenti), Kinger (Sean Chiplock), and Zooble (Ashley Nichols), who we soon learn are human beings that have been trapped within the game(?). 

    In each episode, the group is also met with some sort of adventure and/or challenge that often correlates with their own personal traumas. 

    Our story begins with Pomni’s arrival at the Digital Circus. Confused and scared, Ragatha tries to comfort Pomni, only for Pomni to find out firsthand the hellish toll this world can take on its inhabitants, aka abstraction. 

    Whenever someone within the Digital Circus loses all sense of self, they mutate into what can only be described as the internet’s interpretation of a biblically accurate angel. And unfortunately, Kaufmo, one of the original gang’s members, abstracts shortly after Pomni’s arrival.

    And that’s all in episode one. 

    Now, I definitely have some theories, and there’s a lot to unpack with this series, so I want to give you all a little time to watch for yourselves; in other words, consider this to be part one. 

    The series currently sits at seven episodes and is available to watch for free over on YouTube, so carve out some time to watch these, and we’ll come back in a couple of weeks to break things down. 

    While you’re watching, I want you to pay close attention to Kinger and Jax, in particular, as well as some of the biblical themes in mind.

    Also, CW/TWs for SI, mental illness, loss of loved ones, grief, anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, and all like topics. 

    I can’t wait to explore this whole world with all of you soon. 🖤

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers.

  • Do The Write Thing: Some Of My Favorite TV Episodes

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite TV episodes into the ol’ VCR. 

    As a writer, I always like to give screenwriters their flowers. 

    This may or may not be obvious, but writing isn’t always the easiest thing in the world. 

    Between writer’s block, stakeholders/editors, and the immense pressure that writers put on themselves, writing is both a blessing and a curse. 

    That’s why, today, I want to share 10 of my favorite TV episodes of all time, some of which I would argue are genuinely the best episodes of all time. 

    I already know I’m gonna probably catch some flak for one of these, so let’s go ahead and start with disclaimers. 

    I need you to hear me out on the season one finale of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist. 

    Firstly, I maintain that the first season of the show is criminally underrated. 

    Secondly, you can’t watch the last half of this episode (particularly the last few minutes) and tell me that the writing isn’t solid. 

    I know the second season isn’t anywhere as good as the first (it suffers from the same problem as Not Dead Yet), but the first season is genuinely good (albeit a little cringy here and there). 

    I also want to acknowledge that there have been accusations against Aziz Ansari, and I want to make it very clear that I don’t condone any of his alleged behavior. 

    Speaking of, I also don’t condone any of Joss Whedon’s behavior. 

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers. 

    Without further ado, here are 10 of my favorite television episodes of all time: 

  • On Mushroom Cloud 9: Some Of My Favorite Post-Apocalyptic Content

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping my favorite post-apocalyptic content into the ol’ VCR. 

    Friends, things are looking a bit bleak in the world right now. 

    Call it escapism or preparation, but I’ve been thinking a lot about post-apocalyptic content lately. 

    From the water filtration system of Waterworld to the killer fashion of Tank Girl, I’ve just been thinking about, y’know, the apocalypse. 

    So, that’s why I thought I’d share with y’all some of my favorite post-apocalyptic content. 

    These movies and series range from desert wastelands to frozen tundras and everything else in between. 

    I know a couple of these may also lean slightly more dystopian, but we’re just going off vibes because it’s a Monday. 

    Alrighty, that should do us for disclaimers and introductions. 

    Without further ado, here are 10 of my favorite pieces of post-apocalyptic content:

  • Side-Dish Cinema: Pairing Sodas With Movie Recommendations

    Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping movie recommendations to pair with your favorite sodas into the ol’ VCR.

    Y’all, I’ve missed this so much. 

    Welcome to another edition of Side-Dish Cinema, the series where we pair movies with your favorite foods and beverages. 

    And today, I’ve curated nine pairings based on sodas. 

    The only thing to note is that, unlike Lights, Camera, Albums, we sometimes do repeat movies on these lists because they’re just too good not to pair. 

    Plus, there are a lot more movies to pair in these pieces than in Lights, Camera, Albums.  

    Alrighty, that should do us for introductions and disclaimers.
