Reader’s Choice – Guilty Pleasures: Down With Love
1416andcounting.wordpress.com — I waited for a while on this one. Down With Love is like a bad date that... goes horribly wrong three quarters of the way through.

Ah, it’s a fish…monster….thing!   Here’s my issue with The Host: what I saw, I really liked and what I heard, I did not. The Host is pretty much about a gigantic fish-monster … thing spawned by scientists dumping toxic chemicals into a river that ...
