EYG Comic Cavalcade #226

October 26

It is time for the EYG Comic Cavalcade. I have considered the possibility of going bi-weekly on the Cavalcade, but I am not sure that works well. I am still considering the potential.

Comic of the Week

It Demands Sacrifice #1

The new Bad Idea book is interesting. Why does a Satanic hippie cult want to grab a little young goat named Bronson? Who knows, but it is a very brutal and bloody book.

In the vein of Feral and Stray Dogs, It Demands Sacrifice creates a group of animals and places them in the horror genre.

Books This Week:

Avengers Armageddon #5. Written Chip Zdarsky with art by Delio Diaz & Frank Alpizar. Cover art was done by Dike Ruan & Moreno Dinisio. The world is starting to turn away from the superheroes. There are no Avengers, but Spider-Man is thinking that they are still needed. Oh, and Bucky lives!

Redcoat #21. Written by Geoff Johns with art and cover art by Bryan Hitch. Simon Pure has ended up paralyzed from his final battle with Benedict Arnold. Simon, who has lost his wife and children to violence. Simon has no desire to make it back from his injury, but Albert Einstein is refusing to give up on him.

D’Orc #9. “Dead Meat.” Written, art and cover art by Brett Bean. The running joke with our new character who has been dubbed “Raawk” and it is a total hoot. There is a Necromancer building a meat monster army. They are being pursued by a Dark Golem. There are a bunch of fun things going down with D’Orc and his crew.

Filthy Lambs #1. Written by Pallie Paul Allor with art and cover art by Chris Evenhuis (Gold Medalist). Grimaldi Manor is home to three generations of the wealthy, dysfunctional Grimaldi family and every ten year contract with “their Lord below.” Filthy Lambs was a very enjoyable issue. Mad Cave continues to be a top comic book company with some original ideas.

Something Epic #16. Written, Illustrated and cover art done by Szymon Kudranski (Cover B-Silver Medalist, C Cover- Bronze Medalist). We are getting closer to the answer about who our killer is. We get some info from Bigfoot, from Creature from the Black Lagoon and more. It sounds as if we need to go see Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as a potential suspect. I have enjoyed the Something Epic arc.

Uncanny X-Men #37. “Soul Deep.” Written by Gail Simone with art by Juan Frigeri. Cover art was done by Luciano Vecchio & Matthew Wilson. Rogue and Gambit are trying to have time to themselves as Gambit heals from his huge troubles over the last several issues (Oh, what a page with Rogue and Gambit in the pool. Woof). Problem is that The Hag, aka Sarah Gaunt, does not want to let things happen. Uncanny X-Men is some excellent storytelling and characterization.

Miles Morales: Spider-Man #3. “Level 3: The Burdens of the World.” Written by Bryan Hill with art by Nico Leon. Cover art was done by Simone Di Meo. Miles has to battle Revenant who is after Miles’s father, Jeff. The background of Jeff is still being investigated. Does Jeff’s past affect Miles’s opinion of him?

Amazing Spider-Man Halloween Special #1. Written by Justina Ireland and penciled by Mike Hawthorne. Cover art is done by Mike Hawthorne & Alex Sinclair. Hallows’ Eve uses her magic to altar Spider-Man’s web shooters. One of them now shoots candy and the other shoot spiders or bats. Trick of treat! This is a fun little adventure with Spidey and Hallows’ Eve and I would say this has been one of my favorite Halloween specials of the year so far.

Marc Spector: Moon Knight #9. “Demolition.” Written by Jed MacKay and art by Devmalya Pramanik. Cover art was done by Jose Luis Soares, Jonas Trindade & Rachelle Rosenberg. Moon Knight finished off the mysterious house. However, Daredevil is not happy and, once everything was over, DD took his anger out.

Fury of Firestorm #7. “Rebirth.” Written by Jeff Lemire with art by Rafael De Latorre. Cover art was done by Rafael De Latorre & Marcelo Maiolo. After it seemed that Firestorm was killed last issue, but we get a transformed version of Firestorm being followed around by a young spectral-vision called “Ronnie.” What does the Justice League think about this new Firestorm?

Absolute Flash #20. “The Darkness at the End Part 1” Written by Jeff Lemire with art by Haining. Cover art was done by Nick Robles. We see Wally trying to recover after getting himself crushed. Absolute Atom is here trying to help Wally and we are introduced to Victor Stone and the eventual Absolute Cyborg. There are working towards an Absolute Teen Titans.

Detective Comics #1114. “Hearts of Ice” Written by Tom Taylor with art by Clayton Henry. Cover art was done by Mikel Janin. Mister Freeze and his wife Nora, along with Batman are trying to prevent the expanding plants before they head worldwide. The Bad Seeds arc is coming to a close soon (I think it is next week).

Nightwing #143. “The Good Old Days.” Written by Dan Watters with art by David Lapham. Cover art was done by Jorge Fornes. Nightwing and Robin are involved in what feels like a side event with Scarface and his attempt to grab control of some of Gotham’s underworld. Robin’s use of explosives blowing the dummy’s head up was awesome.

The Last Driver #3. Written, art and cover art is done by Sean Murphy. We discover some of the background of Clutch as he was still being pursued by Officer Womack. I still love the style of the book, with the side view of the art.

Six of Us #2. “The Thing About Killing That Guy.” Written by Tom King with art and cover art by Gabriel Hernandez Walta. I love this issue as it feels like the dark underbelly of a sitcom. The flashbacks to the past with our cast is intriguing and Tom King continues to be exceptional. This is one of the best books of the month.

Hello Halloween #2. Cover art by Jenny Frison (cover B & glow in the dark variant). Hello Halloween came out last year with a special issue and this year, we get number two. We keep getting some great short Halloween tales from Boom! Studios.

G.I. Joe #27. Written by Joshua Williamson with art and cover art by Tom Reilly. Zartan, still imitating General Hawk, is desperate to find the Baroness, so he is manipulating the Joes. However, the Baroness is fee and she has found old man Hawk. How long has Zartan been pretending to be Hawk? Hawk looks crazed and she is in some trouble.

If Destruction Be Our Lot #5. Written by Matthew & Mark Elijah Rosenberg with art by Andy MacDonald. Cover art was done by Andy MacDonald & Francesco Segala. I also picked up the NSFW Cover that is hilarious and a Abe showing off his chest and torso… although not exactly what I would have said was NSFW. This issue started off a new arc as Abe heads past the city wall and into the outside wasteland.

Dog Tag #6. Written by Mark Russell with pencils by PJ Holden. Cover art was done by PJ Holden & JP Jordan. The Germans surrendered, but World War II was not yet over because Japan was still in and it seemed as if they were not going to give up. Hiroshima happened and then Nagasaki and Japan surrendered. Tom is sent to Hiroshima for the story and he is shocked by what he saw. This was a really strong issue with some thoughts by the soldiers that Tom struggled to understand. This was a really good series and I thought this was probably the best issue of the series.

The Twilight Zone #11. “Plant Kingdom.” Written by Mark Russell with art by Victor Alpi. Cover art was done by Victor Alpi. This issue could be called Bad Seeds: Twilight Zone. All we were missing was Batman. Basically this was the same story that was being told in the Batman: Bad Seeds books. As I was reading, I was thinking that they should try to use cold to stop the plants because it worked in Gotham.

Watson v. Holmes #2. Written by Jon Santana & Rafael Santana with art by Jordan Rodriguez. Cover art was done by Chin Fong. Watson has found part of the answer… from Professor Moriarty. Meanwhile, Watson’s wife in back from the dead… well sort of. She is a vampire and standing besides Holmes. I have enjoyed this new take on the old IP.

X-Men United #8. “Blood Debts” Written by Eve L. Ewing and art by Tiago Palma. Cover art was done by Stefano Caselli & Federico Blee. The X-Men team up with Blade to save Blade’s daughter Brielle aka Bloodline. Lucas Cross, Blade’s estranged father, is part of the tale as well.

Doomquest #5. Written by Ryan North with art by Francesco Mobili. Cover art was done by Alex Ross. Doom is playing Dr. Samuel Beckett from Quantum Leap as he now leaps into the body of Susan Storm, and takes on Galactus. This was before Sue knew how powerful that she was… but Doom knew.

Absolute Green Arrow #6. “The Longbow Killer Chapter 6” Written by Pornsak Pichetshote with art by Rafael Albuquerque. Cover art was done by Rafael Albuquerque & Marcelo Maiolo. We finally get to know who is behind the mask of the Absolute Green Arrow. Oliver Queen’s son Connor was revealed as the Green Arrow. This ended the first book, but DC has extended this series for more.

Other Books This Week: X-Men Outback #5, Star Trek: The Last Starship #12, The Punisher Showdowns: Black Widow #1, Iron Man Racing Towards Doom #1, 51 #6, and Did You Her About Mimi Green #4.

Quick Hits: Some of the mystery of who is the Patron is starting to be revealed in The Patron #3. I picked up a cool foil virgin cover of Power Rangers Green #3. The book itself has not been one of my favorites, even though I have always been a fan of Tommy. The Forever Home #2 sees Tommy outside the the house, and how he has aged during the time. Yet, they are hoping to find their way to the Forever Home to save his group from the Red Storm. The Eye Collector #5 continues being one of the wildest and weirdest books on the market. There is a bunch of sex and nudity in a couple different books this week. Sweet Paprika: Black, White & Pink-Halloween Special #1 had so much nakedness and I’m not sure that they have any clothes at all in Ofiusa #2. End of Life #9 fits with the theme of this Quick Hits as they have characters called Big Cock and Little Cock. Inglorious X-Force #10 brings the Ms. Marvel arc to an end, but now the team is on the run-leading to a new #1 new month. Space Ghost vs. The Herculoids #2 sees the battle continue between our two cartoon stars. Dynamite keeps putting Space Ghost into huge situations with so many different characters. I’d love to see him with Blue Falcon some day. Exquisite Corpses brought us Rascal Randy #4 as we keep learning more about the rabbit assassin.

Daily Countdown: TV & Movie Deaths #81

T-800 (Terminator 2: Judgment Day)

TV or Movie: Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Actor: Arnold Schwarzenegger

Time of Death: July 3, 1991

Cause of Death: Lowered into pit of molten metal

Admittedly, the T-800 had several deaths over the run of the Terminator franchise, but this is the best one. It was at his own hand in order to prevent any of his technology to fall into the hands of Skynet. It was an emotional moment as T-800 had bonded with young John Connor after protecting him from the T-1000. Making the T-800 into the hero of Terminator 2 was a gutsy move after it was an unstoppable killing machine in the original film. Schwarzenegger parlayed this into a huge career for himself.

From S1 E3

“Choosing Day”

Emotions are on high as the new arrivals have to choose where they live in a process called Choosing Ceremony.

Jade, who finally awoke, thought this whole town was a set-up by Toby as a complex “escape room” type situation. He was acting extremely obnoxious about everything since he did not believe the story of the town to be true. When he was shown Toby’s body, he finally came around to the reality of the situation.

Meanwhile, the Matthews family chose to live in Town… except for Julie, who throws a huge curveball and states that she wants to live at Colony House. The surprise move upset her family, but the rules were once picked, you do not change.

Speaking of rules, we learn about the Box, which was constructed by Sheriff Boyd to punish those whose choices lead to the death of someone in the community. They had never had to use the Box before, but Frank’s negligence led to the death of his wife and daughter, and he was to go into the Box that night.

Boyd was having a deep, moral question if the Box was a fair thing to do. He even tried to get Frank to leave, to go to a cabin on the outskirts of town with a totem. Frank refused to do so and he wound up in the Box and is killed by the monsters.

I am very curious about what these nightly creatures are and where they come from. I am hoping that this is a mystery that the show will delve into with more detail as the seasons move on. I do not just want to accept it as a way of life in the town.

Why can no one leave the town? That is another fascinating mystery that I hope the creators of From have an answer to and it is not just a plot element to make the show work.

Crystal Lake S1 E4

Posted on by

“A New Beginning”

The fourth episode of Crystal Lake is surely setting up Pam’s next victims with a crew of hippies that have gotten Grace pulled in. However, it is the one hippie that apparently can speak to spirits that is going to get them all killed off. She spoke with Grace’s mom and she attacked Pam because, as we know, Pam killed her. This really spooked Grace.

Earlier in the episode, Pam had sex with Chief Lee. I’m not sure if this was done to set up an alibi for the burning of the diner or if she really wanted it… or it could be both.

Things are looking bad for Crazy Ralph as he is the leading suspect for the death of the two men that was once believed to be a bear attack. When Dorf went to find evidence at Ralph place, he found a hippie strung upside down and skinned. She arrived at the episode’s beginning and we see her get trapped in one of the bear traps.

Pam tossed her machete into Crystal Lake when it was discovered that one of the bodies had a wound resembling a sword. Is this going to be Jason’s eventual weapon of choice?

We get some intriguing background on Chief Lee from a former co-worker. We learn that Lee took the fall for a group of cops who were crooked in some case. This was a surprise to me as he has always seemed to be above board.

We are halfway through the season on Peacock so far. It has been an interesting show that I will definitely finish.

Boston Legal S2 E14, E15, E16

Posted on by

“Breast in Show”

“Smile”

“Live Big”

Checking back in with Boston Legal, we get three episodes that were solid, if not standout.

We see Alan doing some great work in the courtroom and some creative moments outside of court to get his point across. Shirley Schmidt had some great closing arguments too. In fact, I believe both cases she was involved in turned on Shirley’s closing. It was nice to see someone besides Alan getting the big moments and Candice Bergen knocks it out of the park.

We get introduced to Tom Selleck as Ivan, a former ex-husband of Shirley who was getting remarried, despite the fact that he still wanted to get back with Shirley. I have to admit that I never liked the character of Ivan much and the way he manipulated people in his life annoyed me.

However, the singing at the wedding and rehearsal of Ivan and his new bride was so wild that it hilarious.

Michael J. Fox left the scene after having several strong episodes with Denise. I did not remember that he came back, but it looked as if he does before he dies in season 3.

There was a big twist at the end of “Live Big” with the case that shook Alan. It was a cool change.

Tremors (1990)

October 25

#13 out of 13

And with that, The October 13 for 2026 comes to a close as I pulled up the Kevin Bacon film Tremors on Peacock for the thirteenth film of the month.

Tremors was one that I thought I had watched before, but I did not have a review and, after watching it, I feel as if I had never seen this before.

According to IMDB, “Inhabitants of a small isolated town defend themselves against strange underground creatures which are killing them one by one.”

The cast was full of fun actors including Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Finn Carter, Michael Gross, Reba McIntyre, Victor Wong, Bobby Jacoby, Charlotte Stewart, Tony Genaro, Ariana Richards, Conrad Bachmann, Sunshine Parker and Richard Marcus.

The creatures are, of course, all practical effects and they look decent, though the smaller tentacle looking parts reminded me of Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors. The giant creatures looked really great and helped keep this monster movie tense and filled with anxiety.

I did not love the characters played by Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward at first, though they both grew on me.

Tremors had some good humor, solid acting, and some very strong practical effects. The film holds up well over the years and I had a good time watching.

We Are Still Here (2015)

Posted on by

October 25

#12 out of 13

One of the key sub-genres of horror films would be the “Haunted House” films. We Are Still Here is another film that fits into that sub-category.

According to IMDB, “In the cold, wintery fields of New England, a lonely old house wakes up every thirty years – and demands a sacrifice.“

While there is not a lot new in this film, the performances of the actors help create a watchable horror film with a satisfying ending.

Andrew Sensenig and Barbara Crampton play Paul and Anne Sacchetti, a couple who recently lost their son in a car wreck and were moving to a new house in New England. Larry Fessenden and Lisa Marie play friends Jacob and May Lewis. Monte Markham played Dave McCabe, who was one of the people protecting the house.

There were some good scares in the film, but, again, nothing that was incredibly memorable. This was a decent film that I probably won’t remember for too long.

American Horror Story 13 S13 E11, E12

“Madison’s Happy Ending”

“Sisters in Arms”

I found these two episodes that were designed to set up the finale to be extremely intriguing and satisfying.

The arrival of Ben at the coven in New Orleans was great. Ben being more than just an evil son of Satan is a fitting twist as this is what I would have expected from this character that we have met this season.

Making Ben and Madison a thing worked well in episode 11. I found them to be a cute couple.

However, the best part of these two episodes was yet to come. Ben brought Myrtle Snow back to the witches of the coven, pulling her from Hell.

Myrtle revealed to Fiona that she was the daughter of Satan and that she was a twin- separated at birth. Her twin- Constance Langdon. Then, she told the story of their mother, Sister Judy Martin from the Briarcliff Manor asylum, thus connecting the three characters of Jessica Lange from Murder House, Coven and Asylum together.

I found this to be a genius move. Seeing the connection between Fiona and Constance was one thing (a great scene with the pair of Jessica Langes together), but to tie Sister Judy into this was such a exceptional move. There was even a name drop of Pepper, from Asylum as well.

However, things do not end up very hopeful as at the end of the episode, Ben, Cordelia and Queenie (also back from Hell thanks to Ben) went to start off their plan to trap Satan, and both Cordelia and Queen get killed, making next episode’s finale totally a free for all.

I found both of these very strong and I am ready for the finale of the 13th season of American Horror Story.

Sunday Morning Sidewalk #92

DTF St. Louis

“The Denny’s Plan”

The penultimate episode of this HBO Max limited series opens up what might be the final resolution to the murder of Floyd Smernitch. I’m not sure how I feel about it.

Clark’s story explained the Tiger Tiger bit as he revealed that Clark had set up the whole Tiger Tiger thing, hoping to pull Floyd out of his funk over the failed sexual encounter Floyd tried to have with Carol. Carol had told Floyd that she discovered that she did not him on top of her.. that she felt like squirming out from under him. It was a brutal moment that affected Floyd deeply.

I am worried that I am not going to love this series finale next week. They are implying that Floyd may have given himself the overdose of the drug Amphezyne, and I am not sure that I can see him committing suicide even with what the show has done to him. He just feels like someone who loves life more than that. Plus, I am not sure if he would do that to Richard.

Yet, I am not sure that someone out of the blue would be better. It feels that Carol being the killer is more acceptable to me than either of those other outcomes.

Yet it really feels like they are setting this up to say that Floyd makes this choice, not only after Carol told him about the squirming, but the perceived betrayal of Clark with the Denny’s Plan.

I wonder if the restaurant Denny’s paid money to be in this episode, and, if they did, did they know what it was going to be used for?

Old Yeller

TV or Movie: Old Yeller (1957)

Actor: Spike

Time of Death: December 25, 1957

Cause of Death: Gunshot after contracting rabies

One of those iconic deaths that scarred a generation, the ending of the movie Old Yeller is one of the earliest examples of Disney pulling at the heartstrings of its viewers. Old Yeller was a dog who wound up contracting rabies after fighting off a infected wolf. He did it to protect his family. The boy Travis, who was Old Yeller’s owner, had to shoot the dog.

“Long Day’s Journey Into Night”

“The Way Things Are Now”

I have a soft spot for mysterious small town/location with some kind of enigmatic strangeness. Twin Peaks, Eerie, Indiana, LOST, Picket Fences, Widow’s Bay… and now you can add one more to the list.

From.

I have heard about this show for quite awhile now. It starred Harold Perrineau, who was, of course, on LOST as Michael Dawson, and the show had that eerie, weird feel immediately.

In these premiere two episodes, we get introduced to the fact that no one can be out past dark because of some kind of creatures that are all kinds of bad news. The little girl in the cold open of episode one paid the price for opening that window. A bloody, bloody price.

Lots of mysterious rules that we are told and see in action right off the bat. Not very many answers. Just how I like it.

Harold Perrineau is Sheriff Boyd Stevens and he has been clearly going through this for some time now. We see him trying to help people immediately.

There is a family driving into the town in their RV, after being redirected by a tree that was blocking the road. Apparently, once you are in this area, you do not leave. Again, reminded me of LOST with the people who could never leave the island.

The family is involved in a wreck with their RV, putting them all in danger. Little boy gets impaled in the leg by a table leg. That means he can’t be moved and darkness was coming.

There is a loaded cast and it will take some time for me to be able to identify which character is which. However, the show did a good job of showing me Boyd, his son Ellis, the Matthews family, and Donna. Donna’s story about her sister was tragic. The rest of the group will be people I am sure I will get to know over the next four seasons.

From is now on Netflix, while it is also on MGM + on Prime.

Crystal Lake S1 E3

“Part III”

Bear hunting is all the rage on Crystal Lake ep 3.

Some of the locals believe that the pelvis found in the woods had been killed by a bear.

Of course, that was never going to go well for them.

It was just a matter of time before they shot one of their own group. However, the shot man was not just shot, but he saw a vision of the mysterious man who attacked Claudette and Barry in the car.

Then…

Pam Voorhees strikes again.

This time she brutally murders Grace’s mother and sets her diner on fire to cover the scene (better than feeding her to the bears). She sees her being angry with Grace and she believed that she was being abusive to the girl. It looked though that Grace was doing it to herself (with self-inflicted cigarette burns).

Grace seems to be fairly off-kilter as well. She assaulted Claudette in the bathroom. Admittedly, Claudette started everything trying to get Grace back for throwing the shoes into Barry’s car (even though we know it wasn’t her). So with Claudette, it felt as if she deserved what Grace does to her. This is what leads to her mother being mad with her.

Pam takes advantage of that and she absolutely shows off how crazy she is.

Crystal Lake is picking up some steam for me as I enjoyed this episode fully. It felt much like the It: Welcome to Derry show in ways, particularly with the past time frame.

Crystal Lake is streaming on Peacock.

Wildwood

Posted on by

The new Laika top-action animation film was released this weekend. It was named Wildwood, and the trailers for this film looked tremendous. After seeing the whole film, it was even better than tremendous.

According to IMDB, “The adventures of Prue McKeel as she sets off to the forests outside Portland to find her kidnapped brother.“

Prue McKeel was voiced by Peyton Elizabeth Lee, and she was the main protagonist as she attempted to enter the Impassable Forest to save her little brother Mac, who had been abducted by a murder of crows.

The story is a master class in narrative storytelling. Everything combines together in such a perfect way and there are no loose ends or unimportant moments. Every character had an arc and the story did not leave anyone out. It is a top notch, emotional film that had me teary eyed in several moments of the third act.

It is also a masterpiece in stop-motion animation. It was the best stop-motion animation that I think I have ever seen. Every moment on the screen was gorgeous and filled with imagery and amazing color. I think this may be my favorite animation of the year.

The voice cast was powerful too. Along with Peyton Elizabeth Lee, the cast included Jacob Tremblay, Carey Mulligan, Richard E. Grant, Mahershala Ali, Jemaine Clement, Tom Waits, Charlie Day, Tantoo Cardinal, Marc Evan Jackson, Jake Johnson, Angela Bassett, Awkwafina, Maya Erskine, and Amandla Stenberg.

This is an epic fantasy that does not spare on the violence because it is animated. Several characters are killed and it is right up front about it. This is not a film for the youngest of the kids, but mid to teen would love this. It is such an amazing feature that showed what filmmakers are capable of with the medium. Director Travis Knight, who directed Kubo and the Two Strings, Bumblebee, and new Masters of the Universe, was also a producer on ParaNorman and Missing Link. He clearly has some skill when it comes to animation.

There are not many flaws to this magnificent movie. It may be a touch long, but it did not feel that way.

You Can See Everything

Posted on by

I do not usually have documentaries on the year end Best Movies because they are more difficult to compare them to scripted films. Won’t You Be My Neighbor about Mr. Rogers was a exception.

You Can See Everything will also be an exception. It will be on my Best Movies list for 2026.

I did not know anything about Elizabeth Holmes, nor did I watch the Hulu series The Dropout, so I came into the doc without any knowledge of what I was going to see. All I knew was that there was going to be some kind of twist, and that this was very well received. None of that was going to affect my enjoyment.

The fact is that I think the documentary started off a little slow. Part of that, I assume, is that I did not know any of the story previously. However, one this thing got cooking, man it was something else.

Nathan Fielder was one of the co-directors for this doc and he was the main, on-screen interviewer. He spent the last 34 days before Elizabeth Holmes surrendered herself to go to the prison.

This doc really kicked off for me when Nathan was interviewing Elizabeth’s father, and Elizabeth’s partner Billy Evans, interrupted, causing the father to change his entire attitude. It was creepy and very suspicious. There was also an awesome use of Abbot & Costello’s Who’s on First.

I was very impressed with the amount of participation this documentary got out of Amanda Seyfried, who played Holmes in The Dropout. The last part of this movie felt more like a movie than a documentary. I had to keep telling myself that the scenes with Amanda Seyfried were real. I thought this was designed so well that it gave me a total different feel (the whole scene about Charlie Kirk was uncomfortable as could be).

I was completely enthralled in the story this doc was telling and I was trying to figure out what was going to happen. Of course, doc endings are many times lacking because of the nature of the story. This ending was as satisfying as it could have been considering what had happened.

This is really not only a great documentary, but a great movie too.

4.8 stars
