Pseudopod 038: Hell’s Daycare by D. Richard Pearce
A couple of weeks ago I was tapped to read a story for Pseudopod, the short-form horror podcast. The story I read was posted on the site this morning. "Hell's Daycare", by D. Richard Pearce is a cautionary tale about the dangers of fraternizing with demons in the digital age. Caution: "Hell's Daycare" is for mature audiences only, as are all stories featured on Pseudopod.
As long as you're heading over to Pseudopod, I encourage you to check out "Bliss", by James Michael White (read by Mur Lafferty). Laura and I listened to this one on a recent trip to Stow and we both found it incredibly disturbing, which I consider to be high praise for a horror story.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)

If a video game and a music video mated and their offspring was delivered by a comic book, this is the movie that baby would grow up to become. I have not (yet) read a single volume of the comic book upon which this movie is based, but the end result of the adaptation was pretty damned awesome.

An outrageous, silly, hyperactive chain of explosions and aerobatics that hits all the right nostalgia buttons while managing to bring the classic eighties television series into the twenty-first century. Sure, the plot is silly and the action generally falls somewhere between ridiculous and preposterous (occasionally veering well beyond ludicrous), but it's fun and entertaining and doesn't ask (or want, for that matter) you to think too much. In other words, it's THE A-TEAM.

A fairly decent entry into the Killer Croc genre; lots of tension, a bit of gore, and clever use of real crocodiles.

A thoughtful, intelligent piece of sci-fi (as opposed to SyFy) with a stunning performance from Sam Rockwell and a beautiful score by Clint Mansell.
