![]() ![]() Sadly missing are Flynn’s real life moments with Olivia de Havilland played quite well yet all to brief by Lee Purcell. Regehr is also large in body to Flynn who was thinner but you cant have everything. He also has the physical background as he was a champion skater when he was young so comfortable with the athletic aspects of Flynn’s roles. įlynn is played by Lethbridge Alberta Canada born Duncan Regehr who has a slight facial resemblance. If that was a decision as a Writer or Director this picture ignores many of Flynn’s live moments in favor of focus on Lili Damita. Taylor is well versed in the medium of directing for the small screen and handling fast moving story. Good attempt that falls short.ĭon Taylor who Directed and also listed as writer for this had a huge career as an actor in films like STALAG 17 to Directing for Television in a number of series like BURKE’S LAW and THE WILD WILD WEST. ![]() This Don Taylor Directed MY WICKED WICKED WAYS (1985) made for TV film was an attempt to use some of Flynn’s self penned biography of the same name as source material. ![]() That doesn’t cloud me in thinking that everything a “Star” did was correct or wonderful that it deserves to be given its due. Firstly I can say that I am a big Errol Flynn fan who doesn’t think he has gotten what he deserves in terms of recognition from Hollywood. ![]() ![]() ![]() Before now, only one person has ever made it back through the single known doorway. The team includes an anthropologist, a linguist, a surveyor, and the team leader: the psychologist. ![]() ![]() We know that this brought about odd protocols, such as referring to people by their role only. We know that previous expeditions met with complete disaster. Various government agencies have spent decades attempting to discern the true nature of this expanse, which changed and now defies concrete description. We enter Area X, an otherwise unremarkable stretch of the Gulf Coast, alongside a team referred to as the 12th expedition who go in to investigate. Falling off the sheer precipice of consciousness into the shocking and inexplicable world of the film Annihilation, starring Natalie Portman, and the Southern Reach Trilogy novels, written by Jeff VanderMeer, on which the film is based, is a pleasure that cannot be overstated. ![]() ![]() And then his dom made sure to apply a decent amount of Arnica cream to his bum. ![]() ![]() Instead, it turned out to be much like a manual for safe, sane and consensual (SSC) BDSM. It never sucked me in, chewed on me and spit me - reduced to an emotional and hot ‘n bothered mess - out at the end! This book didn't shimmer with intensity, there were no sparks that ignited my imagination. ![]() So far, so holding-your-breath-in-anticipation yummie. A naive, spoilt brat, who also happens to be his student, is the last person he realizes he should want. Anyway, Sterling begs his professor to take him on as his sub, but the man has been disappointed a little too often in subs. Now, my professors mostly were shabbily-dressed and unfit, but I can still appreciate the student/professor kink. It's the weird and wacky or dark and gut wrenching stories that stick with you."Īt first, my eyes were flying over the pages when handsome college kid Sterling, who has only recently discovered that the BDSM scene could be his thing, visits a club and suddenly spots his stoic and cool professor. ![]() "It's just that really formalised bdsm makes me want to laugh, it's so tidy and lacking in soul.

"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family-a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. But the truth is a much more complicated story. ![]() Suspicion immediately lands on the parents. But one night, when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. The suspense was beautifully rendered and unrelenting!” -Sue Grafton, New York Times bestselling author of XĪ domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors-a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives.Īnne and Marco Conti seem to have it all-a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. ![]() “I read this novel at one sitting, absolutely riveted by the storyline. “Provocative and shocking.” -Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author of Find Her “The twists come as fast you can turn the pages. Shari Lapena’s new thriller, AN UNWANTED GUEST, is available now! ![]() ![]() But when January started melting down, it was (for me) not relatable, it was obnoxious. So when it was good, it was gooooooooood. BUT she also played 20 hands of expert spider solitaire, so overall good day. There was one point when January noted that her writing goal for the day was 1500 words, but she only managed 400. All the similes and metaphors! So many similes and metaphors! But really, they’re fun, not obnoxious. On the other hand, Henry’s descriptiveness is awesome. Henry has created some super messy protagonists, so one really needs to go into this reading with the ability to understand and accept that some people are the most illogical creatures on earth and let themselves be ruled by all these messy feelings instead of doing the one (ONE!) thing that will solve their problem. Overall: I am seriously not on board with January assuring Gus that she’ll stick through the messiness when Gus is scared to try a relationship and then immediately bailing in a meltdown when things get messy. ![]() They’re both writers and neighbors on the lake in Michigan.

His new comrades hail from the shadowy Syldoon empire led by Captain Braylar Killcoin, each man in the company comes across as hard-bitten and wholly at ease with violence and death. ![]() The main premise of ‘Scourge’ is that Arki has been hired to chronicle the day-to-day activities of a brutal warband. Our narrator is Arkamondos, an educated yet naïve small-town scribe. ![]() Imagine my surprise and pleasure when I found myself immersed in a gritty, startlingly intimate fantasy one that uses realism and detail to draw in the reader, and maintains the engaging and endearing first person voice of a rather inexperienced and anxious young man. Having found myself regularly entertained by Salyards’ laugh-out-loud Facebook posts I decided it was high time I checked out his fiction. Scourge of the Betrayer spent three years lurking amid the dusty, long-forgotten recesses of my TBR before social media put it back on my radar in 2016. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This volume includes nine of Junji Ito’s best short stories, as selected by the author himself and presented with accompanying notes and commentary.

You are about to watch a series sold as a hectic action with unexpected twists and chaotic energy. Guided by the promise of a content life alongside an attractive woman, Denji devotes everything and fights with all his might to make his naive dreams a reality. Because Denji's new abilities pose a significant risk to society, the Public Safety Bureau's elite devil hunter Makima takes him in, letting him live as long as he obeys her command. Remarkably, an old contract allows Pochita to merge with the deceased Denji and bestow devil powers on him, changing him into a hybrid able to transform his body parts into chainsaws. But an act of greedy betrayal by the yakuza leads to Denji's brutal, untimely death, crushing all hope of him ever achieving happiness. All Denji can do is dream of a good, simple life: one with delicious food and a beautiful girlfriend by his side. His only companion is his pet, the chainsaw devil Pochita, with whom he slays devils for money that inevitably ends up in the yakuza's pockets. ![]() ![]() Denji is robbed of a normal teenage life, left with nothing but his deadbeat father's overwhelming debt. ![]() ![]() ![]() (Purification is an important facet of Japanese religion.) Washing the filth from his body begets new kami, including the sun goddess Ametarasu. Izanagi then rushes to a river to purify himself. He runs away and seals the entrance to Yomi: “as they stood there with the boulder between them, they declared themselves divorced” ( The Kojiki).Įnraged, Izanami vows that she will now kill 1,000 people a day Izanagi counters he will build 1,500 birthing huts every day to thwart her. Izanagi breaks his promise not to look at her, only to discover that she has become a rotting corpse. Sadly, it is too late for Izanami-she has already eaten food from the underworld. ![]() Izanagi kills his newborn son in rage and grief, then goes to Yomi, the land of the dead, to search for his wife. When Izanagi beckons first, they begin to give birth to the Japanese archipelago and many of the kami behind its more significant natural phenomena.Įventually, Izanami dies giving birth to the fire god. When Izanami beckons first, all their offspring are malformed. This ritual is presumably why these kami (gods, for lack of a succinct alternative) are He Who Beckoned and She Who Beckoned. Before they couple, they perform a simple ritual, passing around a pillar and greeting each other in turn. As the first anthropomorphized gods, Izanami and Izanagi are also Japan’s first sexed and gendered gods. ![]() |
