Dexter: Will Daddy Change Everything?

September 30, 2008 StayTuned Staff

By Elaine B I begin by noting that I have faith in the writers of the freshest most cutting-edge drama on television. But my faith was sorely tested at the end of the Season 3 premiere by the sudden plot twist that has a clearly besotted-by-Rita-and-kids Dexter suddenly contemplating that he will become a father in actuality rather than just a sort of informal doughnut-carrying dad. For Dexter, who has always had father issues of his own, as well as a strong tie to his adopted family, becoming a father could be a step on the path to finding his […]

True Blood: Southern Vamp Meets Sookie

September 8, 2008 StayTuned Staff

By Elaine B Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer with director Alan Ball There is something very wrong in the rural Louisiana town of Bon Temps. Women of questionable moral character are being strangled and, it turns out, they all had a history of being fang-bangers*. There are a few bad apples harvesting and dealing V-juice** and, oh yes, a vampire named Bill has returned to claim his ancestral home and a bottle or two of Tru-Blood*** at the colorful (and I’m being polite here) roadhouse Merlotte’s. There he catches the eye of blond, leggy, mind-reading waitress Sookie Stackhouse. And what […]

Moonlight: Mick Vamps Out

January 18, 2008 StayTuned Staff

One thing I understand is those bloodsucking night hunters (heck, after writing so many novels about them, I ought to). But until recently, I did not have much love for Moonlight vampire Mick St. John. But the writers strike has a way of making marginal series far more interesting and I’ve been paying closer attention to this series of late (what else is there to pay attention to when I’m ready for an hour that doesn’t involve looking at a computer monitor?) and the timing is right because this series just keeps getting better.

Wes Craven Says The Roots Of Monsters Are Within Us

October 13, 2006 StayTuned Staff

Wes Craven has made an entire generation of moviegoers cringe with such groundbreaking horror films as The Hills Have Eyes, A Nightmare on Elm Street and the darkly humorous Scream series. But Craven never intended to pursue a career making scary movies. As a matter of fact, having been raised in a fundamentalist family in Cleveland, he never even saw any movies at all until he was in his 20s and never saw a horror film until after he made what has become a classic of the slasher genre: The Last House on the Left. This month, Craven joins fellow […]
