The Visit For those looking for a jump out of your seat, wet your pants, scary, gory slasher film, The Visit isn’t it.  It is more psychological in nature and what I would classify as a thinking man’s horror thriller. 

The Originals: The Complete Second Season The Originals Season 2 Blu-ray set is a great presentation of one of prime times great tv shows. Season two quickly expands on the mythology laid out by the first season and raises the stakes. It is a must for any Originals, Vampire Diaries fan, and, it's even great for the casual viewer.

The Vampire Diaries Season 6 The Vampire Diaries Season 6 maybe the saddest and bloodiest one so far.  From other worldly prisons, to a new witch/vampire hybrid, the supernatural dimension went into overdrive this year.

Mad Max: Fury Road While I can’t say I was as enthralled with Mad Max: Fury Road as most people, I did enjoy finding out what all the excitement was about.  I found myself in awe over some of the stunts and impressed with much of the acting. 

We Are Your Friends Entertaining as it is, and with some good acting thrown in, I think We Are Your Friends misses the mark in some aspects and won’t be a blockbuster in theaters.

No Escape In every sense, the word 'thriller' has never been more accurate to describe a film.

American Ultra American Ultra couldn’t decide if it was a serious spy movie or a parody of a spy movie, which confused the audience and left each individual trying to figure out what the purpose of the movie was.

Hitman: Agent 47 When Hitman: Agent 47 fails at the box office, one could, and will, argue the case that Hitman: Agent 47 didn’t fair well because R rated films have fallen out of fair with audience. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Hitman: Agent 47 failed because of a weak script created by a studio hack that has a track record of horrible films.

Mike & Molly: Season 5 Under all the humor (or lack there of), the show has some heart and a good “soul” which makes for a feel good half hour each week.  Unfortunately, it isn’t enough.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the show only has one or two seasons left.

2 Broke Girls: The Complete Fourth Season 2 Broke Girls was originally panned by critics in season one, the show has managed to survive, won two People’s Choice Awards, and garnered a following that has warranted a fifth season starting this Fall on CBS.
