It is easier to start at the beginning with season one and progress because one thing that sets Buffy and it's counterpart,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~156810448516 Mon, 4 Oct 2004 18:33:59 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_156810448516?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_155347750532?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - It's funny how time passes sometimes. It's been a year now since Johnny Cash passed away, but with so much great music left in his wake, it's difficult to imagine that there won't be anymore. The Man in Black left behind a legacy that can't be ignored,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~155347750532 Wed, 15 Sep 2004 14:52:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_155347750532?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_117693582980?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I apologize for not finishing up on Jiggyjay's Halloween write off, but as some of you know, my mother has been sick for a while now and there was a rough patch during that time. Jay and I agreed that the time would be better spent being with her so that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~117693582980 Thu, 6 Nov 2003 00:28:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_117693582980?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116965346948?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - There are just some actors in the horror genre who are instantly recognizable. Vincent Price was such an actor, you knew his voice immediately and it's a shame that youngsters today don't seem to know much about him or his films. I suppose it's rough fo... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116965346948 Wed, 29 Oct 2003 05:23:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116965346948?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116853542532?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I must begin by saying that no self-respecting vampire fan could get away without reading at least one of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. I have read the first three, but couldn't bring myself to find any interest in those that came after Queen of the Da... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116853542532 Tue, 28 Oct 2003 05:52:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116853542532?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116812385924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Like many vampire fans, I've seen The Hunger several times since it was released in the early 80's. It's one of the classics, even if it is a bit on the "artsy" side. Not your standard vampire fare, there is something about this film that keeps generati... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116812385924 Mon, 27 Oct 2003 20:48:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116812385924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116742196868?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Wowzers! There are over 200 reviews of this film on Epinions. I wasn't sure if 200 people had even seen this movie to be honest. The first time I saw this, I admit I didn't expect much. It was one of those slow weeks for new releases and I'd seen pret... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116742196868 Mon, 27 Oct 2003 04:09:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116742196868?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116724829828?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - All day today it's been a battle of the television. My kid wants to watch Disney, and I have to watch horror flicks. Guess who won? After this review, I'm off to watch either Lake Placid or Interview with the Vampire, haven't quite decided. After watc... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116724829828 Mon, 27 Oct 2003 00:48:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116724829828?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116706217604?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I have to preface this review by saying that I've seen The Birds probably more times than I've seen Psycho, and while it doesn't really work for me as a "ooooh, scary bird" movie, it does feature some very interesting relationships and some good moments o... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116706217604 Sun, 26 Oct 2003 20:34:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116706217604?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116624625284?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - As you know, my kids love anything Disney. When it comes to Disney and Pixar pairings, parents will find as much to enjoy as their kids. Shoot, I've watched this without the kids because I found it so enjoyable! Needless to say, kids of all ages will f... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116624625284 Sat, 25 Oct 2003 22:42:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116624625284?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116615581316?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Jiggyjay is having a little Halloween write-off, so I agreed to participate. One of the films I chose is The Kindred, a FOX television series, which was only a mid-season replacement evidently as only seven original episodes were shown on television. My... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116615581316 Sat, 25 Oct 2003 20:22:19 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116615581316?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116131204740?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author knix - My husband wanted to see this, so I snapped up the only remaining copy in the whole store and brought it home. He watched it, and claimed to like it, but whether that was due to the film or Eliza Dushku, I couldn't say at this point. I put the kids to b... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116131204740 Tue, 21 Oct 2003 03:36:21 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116131204740?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_116010618500?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - My mom bought me a copy of this book when I was maybe 9 or 10. I started reading it one afternoon while bored and it instantly became one of my favorite books. I devoured all of Ms. Hinton's books with relish, and about a year ago, introduced my ten yea... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~116010618500 Mon, 20 Oct 2003 02:17:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_116010618500?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_115967954564?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I saw this in the theater when it first came out. I was about twelve or thirteen maybe and while it didn't scare the *rap out of me, there were scenes that made me jump. Given that it's almost Halloween, I wanted to let my oldest daughter (eleven years... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~115967954564 Sun, 19 Oct 2003 18:41:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_115967954564?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_115679530628?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I am a Stephen King fan. I've read a great deal of his material and seen a great many of his films. True, films of his work don't generally translate to screen very well and I have very mixed feelings about this one. Per the interview with Mr. King, I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~115679530628 Thu, 16 Oct 2003 15:51:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_115679530628?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_115324128900?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I have to admit that I have no idea why they chose to remake this film. I have seen the original and while I don't remember everything, it seemed like a pretty goofy idea even back in the seventies. But, deadly animal movies really hit their stride in t... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~115324128900 Mon, 13 Oct 2003 03:20:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_115324128900?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114243112580?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I should, technically, be doing a review of Buffy Season 3 first, but it's on loan to someone else right now so I couldn't watch it and have all the details fresh in my mind. However, season 4 is sitting here, looking all inviting so I started watching t... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114243112580 Wed, 1 Oct 2003 01:37:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114243112580?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_113938960004?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - If you have cable and kids in the same household, it's highly unlikely that the Disney Channel isn't a one of the main channels that the family is viewing. As an adult, the Disney Channel, at first, seemed a little tedious but my kids loved it so I had n... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~113938960004 Sat, 27 Sep 2003 17:12:49 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_113938960004?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_113894592132?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Ok, I'm trying to round out my reviews of Buffy and Angel, and since season 3 of Angel doesn't hit stores until January, it made sense to finish up Angel first. While Buffy the series had some weak spots in its season 1, Angel was lucky in that all the w... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~113894592132 Sat, 27 Sep 2003 03:18:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_113894592132?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_113524969092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Ok, I kind of jumped the gun by reviewing season two of Buffy before season one, but season two is just so much more interesting that I couldn't help myself. Season one was a mid-season replacement, so only twelve episodes were made and in truth, season... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~113524969092 Tue, 23 Sep 2003 02:17:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_113524969092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_113425747588?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Most people think if you're a fan of Buffy, you must love its spin-off series, Angel. While it is true in my case, it's not been true of a lot of Buffy fans. Recently, it came to my attention that only about 25% of Buffy watchers were watching Angel as... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~113425747588 Mon, 22 Sep 2003 03:46:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_113425747588?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_113421160068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author knix - When I first heard of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I refused to watch it. It sounded so silly and it was so popular with teenagers that I felt it would not be a show I could get involved in. Imagine my surprise when I watched an episode and became immediat... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~113421160068 Mon, 22 Sep 2003 02:42:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_113421160068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_70557208196?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - Older fans of George Carlin, such as myself, began listening to him when one of the most shocking things he said was that he smoked a little wacky weed and rarely used any swear words. My, but the times have changed. George seems intent on offending... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~70557208196 Fri, 19 Jul 2002 15:54:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_70557208196?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_70091378308?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I've been away from epinions for almost two whole years and I'm not entirely sure what the site is like nowadays. It appears that most of the folks that I remember have left epinions for a greener pasture, but I still remember how to write a review (I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~70091378308 Mon, 15 Jul 2002 15:30:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_70091378308?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_31616831108?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I hadn't watched this film in quite a while, but sat up last night watching it again for some reason. I wanted to do a review of "Andy Warhol's Dracula", with all it's talk of "wirgins" but, alas, that film is not in the Epinions database. Perhaps I'll... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~31616831108 Sun, 15 Jul 2001 17:18:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_31616831108?linkin_id=8003929
