    Mr. Right, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Rumor has it that Netflix is on its way out.  If so, that will save me $20 a month, which I gladly pay for the people who also… Read more “Mr. Right, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Medieval, by Albert W. Vogt III

    History will always trump horror, even if it is largely a load of crap like Medieval.  I will explain more about that later.  For now, know that I went to… Read more “Medieval, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    1944, by Albert W. Vogt III

    War sucks.  That is a revealing statement for a historian who came to be interested in the subject because of military history.  I am not sure what other fathers… Read more “1944, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Bram Stoker’s Dracula, by Albert W. Vogt III

    If there is one movie that I feel best encapsulates my distaste for certain films as a practicing Catholic, it is Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992).  Though tales of vampires predate… Read more “Bram Stoker’s Dracula, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    28 Days Later, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Beast, by Albert W. Vogt III

    My Catholic sensibilities had a bit of trepidation reviewing a movie titled Beast.  After all, that is one of the names given to the devil.  If you knew nothing else… Read more “Beast, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Rambo: Last Blood, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Draw your own conclusions as to whether or not Rambo: Last Blood’s (2019) title makes sense.  Given the things that happen over the course of these five films, I… Read more “Rambo: Last Blood, by Albert W. Vogt III”
