    Mermaids, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Usually, I am uninterested in movies starring Cher.  I do not know why.  She made plenty of them during the 1980s and into the 1990s, but I cannot recall… Read more “Mermaids, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Heathers, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Though I was born in the 1980s, I cannot say that I am a keen student of films of that era.  I did not see The Breakfast Club (1985) until… Read more “Heathers, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, by Albert W. Vogt III

    If you say the title word in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice one more time, you will supposedly summon the demon Betelgeuse (Michael Keaton).  Be you a practicing Catholic like me, or anyone… Read more “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Destination Wedding, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Yes, I know, another romantic comedy, the genre of film I have decried as being predictable and repetitive.  On this note, there is not much that separates Destination Wedding (2018)… Read more “Destination Wedding, 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”

    Little Women (1994), by Albert W. Vogt III

    It was a solitary January day circa 1996.  The only thing remarkable about it is that I was home.  Colds, then as now, were rarities for me, and this… Read more “Little Women (1994), by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Star Trek, by Albert W. Vogt III

    At no point in my life have I ever called myself a fan of Star Trek.  My parents were never into it, and I found Star Warsbefore the USS Enterprise.  As I… Read more “Star Trek, by Albert W. Vogt III”
