Satan, Badder Than Ever
Movies and TV shows about the Devil aren't new. Satan has been a villain for mankind since we’ve had villains, but lately he’s taken on a pop culture immediacy usually reserved for more human bad guys.

Clara Reviews The Postman, by David Brin
Looking for a classic? Not a dull must-read from Eng. Lit. class, but a true representative of the genre? You can’t go wrong with David Brin’s The Postman. It is a tale of disaster and survival, despair and hope, greed and sacrifice and the resurgence of humanity both physically and spiritually.

Cat Reviews Larva, on SCI FI
I love creature-features, and Larva follows all of the standard Creature-feature rules. The new doctor in town has noticed something strange (parasites in the cows!). The greedy corporation responsible tries to cover it up ("Eat the meat!!). Only one poor townsperson believes the doc ("My cow exploded! I swear"). People die in some fairly slimy ways (EW!) and you know the rest. So, this movie is what it is. Read more...

Busy Week! Still, Be Sure to Check out Point Pleasant
Tonight, Wednesday the 19th, the first hour of Point Pleasant premieres. It's a new show from Fox and Marti Noxon (Buffy & Angel producer/writer), and the second hour airs tomorrow, Thursday, the 20th. 9/8c. Now, I know that with the return of Amazing Race, new episodes of Stargate & Enterprise, and finally getting to the series episodes for Battlestar Galatica, you might think you've got enough TV for now. But come on, if this show has even a tiny chance of capturing some of that Buffy/Angel magic, then we all need to check it out.

Besides, The fabulous Richard Burgi is on it. Read more...

Some "Sci-Fi" Disasters Are Real
A 9.0 earthquake in the Indian Ocean has ravaged the surrounding countries with tidal waves that have obliterated fishing villages and coastal towns and killed more than 114,000 people in at least ten countries. Millions are homeless and without clean water. This About Guide sends her sorrows and prayers to the victims of this disaster and urges the nations of the world to set up an early tsunami warning system for the Indian Ocean.
