“Dead or Alive Or” is the definition of a bad episode. Next to nothing happens to further the plot, God saves the gang far too many times to be believable in any sense of the word, none of the characters are likeable besides Dwight, and worst of all Eugene is still alive. Whether you call it fluff, padding, or filler, this episode has nothing up its sleeve and only serves to waste time.
On 'A Productive Cough,' Titus Andronicus takes a narrower, more personalized approach to their Springsteen-inspired punk sound. It’s not as raucous as usual and it won’t have the same broad appeal as 'The Monitor' or 'The Airing of Grievances,' but it’s more fun than either of those albums and keeps many of their essential qualities. For those just seeking a good rallying anthem or a wayward ballad, this album is sure to impress.
But still, I feel it is also important to address that we view films through the lens of the filmmaker. What does that mean exactly?

Back last October, I created a Facebook event dedicated to The Bean that went viral.
'The Strangers: Prey at Night' is a cookie-cutter slasher film that still manages to hold a decent amount of charm. Director Johannes Roberts seems to get lost in an aesthetic that only works about half the time, but makes up for it with compelling characters. While it loses the excitement and innovation that its predecessor 'The Strangers' has, it still manages to be an enjoyable watch.
TRIGGER WARNING: Pedophilia We’re back witches, with another magical episode of the Coven Podcast. This week, we’re looking at the loli trend, or the fetishization of young girls in anime.
