A few niggling thoughts and nitpicks about LEGENDS OF TOMORROW

I've seen up to the fourth episode of The CW's new superhero adventure series Legends of Tomorrow, and while it's been quite entertaining and contained one big surprise in episode 3 that I didn't see coming (although it can probably be unwritten because this is a comic-book show), the entire concept fills me with concerns and questions. So, what better place to air them than here?

The Scary Films to Watch (And Avoid) This Halloween on British TV

Halloween isn't such a big deal in the UK, weirdly. I envy America every 31 October, although the reality of going trick-or-treating as an American probably isn't like Hocus Pocus made it seems. Or is it? Anyway, at least the British broadcasters make an effort when it comes to airing horror films on Halloween. Sort of. The lineup this year isn't exactly stellar—a mix of overexposed classics, obscure mediocrity, and cheap direct-to-video crap—but I thought I'd write a handy Halloween film guide anyway. The only rule is this: the movies listed can't be hidden behind a paywall (*ahem* Sky Movies). Onwards...

Frame Rated: 6 Horror Films Too Scary To Watch Twice

HEROES REBORN, episode 3 - 'Under the Mask'

I'll be covering Heroes Reborn weekly at DMD, but in more of a visual manner.
