The great wizard named Gandalf offered an adventure to Bilbo‚ therefore he thought about the offer and denied by saying good morning again and entering the hole where he lived. As the same day went on Gandalf left

viewed in class was a movie I thought I would never see in my life time. Learning about the term “Hermaphrodite” and the actual story about why people use that particular term to describe a human being always struck my mind‚ and after seeing the film in conjunction with the reading the book Testo Junkie I am coming to grips with the term. That word is also used to describe the main character in the story Phoebe‚ a women who has mens chromosomes. The first part of the movie starts out with Phoebe

Jeepers Creepers 2 looks to up the budget and put the Creeper on screen more‚ but a dash of terrible CGI and a story that doesn’t go all out hurts the film. Still‚ that doesn’t stop Scream Factory from going out with another wonderful Blu-ray Collector’s Edition‚ which carries over the theme from the Jeepers Creepers CE Blu-ray in that it provides all the special features of past releases‚ plus a couple new interviews.
