Two and a Half Men: Of Course He's Dead: Part 1 & 2 (2015) Season 12, Episode 15

The absolute worst

[1/10 · 5 February 2024]

This is the TV equivalent of having a rich, snobby man in a brand new Mercedes-Benz convertible tailgating you on the highway for 40 minutes and then flipping you off when he finally passes you.

This may be the worst TV series finale ever made. I can't believe anyone involved with this went along with it. Absolutely no redeeming qualities, satisfying conclusions to characters and story lines, or even slightly funny jokes.

Even if you liked the post-Sheen seasons, this is an absolute mess and a disgrace to everyone who took part in it. There's absolutely no reason to watch this unless you want to see just how petty and childish the mind of Chuck Lorre is deep down.

Carnival of Souls (1962)

What a disappointment...

[2/10 · 18 October 2019]

I was really excited to watch this movie, so I finally sat down and watched it. I had high expectations but it let me down hard. My biggest problem is that nothing happens the entire runtime aside from the last 5 minutes which had a disappointing twist ending. The overbearing score damn near gave me a migraine, and the only "scary" thing were a few jumpscares that meant nothing.

The acting was also atrocious and greatly took away from the experience. I was constantly checking the runtime, desperately waiting for anything at all to happen but almost nothing did. And I really don't care how low the budget was or about the fact that it was made in 1962. For the record, Nosferatu, a much more unsettling and well-made horror film, was made 40 years before this. The year it was made doesn't excuse it from being sinfully boring.
