A friend recommended Hard Candy movie to me, so I figured it was harmless enough. The description sounded a little intriguing as well. But harmless? If you call a fourteen-year-old Ellen Page strapping a thirty-something man to a table and proceeding to castrate him harmless, then yeah, it was. I actually thought the movie was good. The dialogue was well-written, and the acting was solid, but I couldn’t help but wonder. Wonder how exactly a sane human being (I’m assuming) could write a film like this. Either he has an imagination like no other or the more likely scenario, there’s probably something really wrong with the person.

KOST has started playing Christmas songs on the radio, which means the holiday season is officially underway. Thanksgiving is on its way, then comes the shopping, and the chaos. Some call it hectic. I call it awesome.
