Hocus Pocus For Adults

 

So yeah I initially passed on this movie when it was first released due to my cautious nature towards horror movies. The reason I changed my mind was because I had made the decision to skip One Battle After Another. Basically an adult version of Hocus Pocus, a group of kids from the same class (which includes Thanos' son) go missing in the middle of the night, with only one child remaining. As the teacher, unfortunately Julia Garner is taking the heat for it.

This is probably the most well-written movie I've seen this year. There's not really a protagonist in this film and the story is shown from the perspectives of different people, and this should've been convoluted but it came together beautifully. I can't imagine that being easy to write, so I really applaud the Mr. Cregger (who's also the director) for his work. 

One thing I've noticed as I watch more horror movies is that the quiet and subtle ones are the most effective and scary. Alien is a really good example of that (Quiet Place probably is too, but I haven't seen those movies yet). The scares in this movie were FANTASTIC. The movie knew just the right time to attack, it was very wise with its scares. Aunt Gladys is the stuff of nightmares, worse than the Sanderson Sisters combined. 

Lastly, this movie does have its gory and intense moments. This unsurprisingly also adds to the scares. Several intense moments actually did not involve scares or gory, which gives the movie some variety as well. 

To sum it all up, this movie was amazing. Thanks For Watching.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best.  This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;     Canaan James Hill (Platinum)             Gabby Simone  Zaylie Windsor                         Mattie Pruitt  Thunderstorm Artis                  Drew Ryn  Che                                     ...

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...
