rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - I have been playing Role Playing Games since I was around 10 years old, and my favorite type of scenario to play was always in futuristic settings.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - It took until just a few years ago before I had my first viewing of The Shining, and I was in shock at what I had been missing out on for all these years. I have always been a horror movie fan ever since I saw my first one (A Nightmare On Elm...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - After 6 reliable years of using my original Remington rechargeable shaver, the little machine finally reached the end of it's time. It really put up a fight for those last few weeks, trying it's best to keep the little motor going. But in the end, it...

If only all golf was this entertaining to watch!

Mon, 20 Aug 2001 00:28:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - Before I first saw Happy Gilmore, I was not much of a golf fan at all. I had played a few times in my life but knew very little about the game other than I found it seriously painful to watch on TV. So when a movie came out that poked fun at the game,...

Deep Space Terror

Fri, 17 Aug 2001 20:25:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - Hollywood doesn't make many horror movies since they are not big business, so it's nice to see at least a few come out each year. Event Horizon was one of those releases, and it was not a disappointment. The story was fascinating and the special...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - The very first Role Playing Game (RPG) I ever played was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness (I will refer to it just as TMNT). And almost immediately, I was hooked on RPG games because of it. I was only 10 at the time, but the...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - The success of the original Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, earning over 70 million dollars at the box office, spurned a sequel to the hilarious comedy starring Jim Carrey. All of Carrey's antics are present, but the novelty of many of them wore off...

If I'm not back in 5 minutes... just wait longer!!

Fri, 3 Aug 2001 18:36:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - When it comes to Jim Carrey, I have found it is either people really like him or really dislike him - there is not a lot of room in between. The way he delivers a funny line, his antics, and his many facial contortions can be a little too much for some...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - I was not really into music much when I was growing up, but that all changed one uneventful weekend in 1988. I decided to go borrow some music from my brother to play in my small, black stereo I had received as a gift some time earlier. He threw me a...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - I have been a loyal Star Trek movies fan since the first time I saw The Wrath of Khan back in the mid 80's.

Oh no, not time travel...

Sat, 28 Jul 2001 20:24:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - If there is one thing that the majority of sci-fi/fantasy movies should generally avoid, it's time travel or time warping.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - For fans of Alice In Chains, the release of Jar of Flies back in 1994 was sure to be another great CD with gritty songs and unique lyrics. But Jar of Flies was a step in a different direction for the band, and displayed the depth...

The scary possibility...

Wed, 25 Jul 2001 18:10:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - The questions I asked myself after I first saw this movie are: Could a deadly outbreak really happen in North America?

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - I was a big fan of the movie Space Jam, so when I noticed the Soundtrack in my local music store, it was an instant sale. I was not disappointed by what I heard. Especially with the hilarious little number done by Barry White & Chris Rock. The...

Mon, 23 Jul 2001 05:45:53 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - If my truck had been a boat, I doubt I would have made it out of the port. I have had so many problems with my 1995 Ford Ranger XLT Supercab since purchasing it brand new that it's a wonder it hasn't just spontaneously combusted (but with my luck...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author curtisv632 - When a new horror movie comes out in theaters, I'm usually one of the first in line to see them - no matter how good or bad they may appear to be. The remake of the 1958 version of House on Haunted Hill definitely looked like a winner to me in...
