Amerie Available for Booking
In 2002 an Army brat and aspiring singer exploded on the charts with a harmonious, innovative debut album entitled All I Have. Girlish, fierce, sexy and sweet, All I Have spawned the smash "Why Don't We Fall In Love" (produced by a then under-the-radar Rich Harrison) and let it be known that the new breed of hip hop/soul's chief practitioner was a 22-year-old, DC beauty named Amerie.

Paranormal State: The Complete Season 1
In addition to juggling classes and social lives, the supernatural sleuths of the Paranormal Research Society (PRS) of Penn State University investigate everything from poltergeists to hauntings in an attempt to uncover the truth behind frightening real-life mysteries. Sought by clients ranging from the Catholic Church to ordinary families, the PRS, aided by psychologists, psychics, priests, and demonologists, helps terrified people find solutions to their paranormal problems.Ryan Buell started...
National Treasure: Book of Secrets - BD
National Treasure was so successful that a new franchise was born. National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets ups the ante, a more international film than its predecessor and one that featured considerably more action. It was well received and earned even more money than the original at the box office. Can a second sequel be far behind? All the principal players return for this second romp, and to them add two significant additions. We are blessed with a film that is no less absurd and no less fun than...
National Treasure - BD
Leave your brains at the door, boy and girls; it's time for some entertaining, mindless, action-adventure fun. But first, a question. How does one differentiate an annoying film (filled with plot holes and factual gaffs) worthy of scorn from a self-deprecating and fun romp (filled with plot holes and factual gaffs) that is worthy of our time? Earnestness. The Core took itself very seriously. I could not. National Treasure does not take itself very seriously, and I enjoyed the ride.The film...
One Missed Call - BD
In my recent review of The Orphanage, I made a point of complaining how if it weren't for gross- out torture-porn flicks inspired by the likes of the Saw franchise or retooled remakes of far-better Asian and European horror films, there wouldn't be much reason for a lifelong horror fan like me to even venture out to the local multiplex anymore. Lo and behold, nary a week elapsed before yet another of those pointless and clumsily-executed remakes made its way to the top of my viewing...
The Red Balloon
I just finished up a review of Paddle to the Sea – one of Criterion's new 'Children's Classics' releases – and it left me feeling kind of rough: this writer always hates giving bad reviews to Criterion titles; for me, it's the emotional equivalent of someone spending hundreds of dollars on a birthday present for me that I simply dislike.Well, luckily the folks at Criterion sent over The Red Balloon soon after, and it was as if Paddle to the Sea had...
Predator - BD
Predator is Fox's second alien franchise, and until the AVP series was introduced, it hadn't been exploited quite as much as Ripley's Alien. Regardless, Predator is very entertaining. And like the Alien series, Fox has revisited the title with multiple releases: the first was a non-anamorphic widescreen DVD disappointment; the second was an anamorphic transfer on DVD with a DTS audio option that improved the presentation, but remained essentially featureless; and then there was...
The Business of Being Born
Inspired by their own unique birth experiences, producer Ricki Lake and director Abby Epstein team up to provide a nation of mothers-to-be with insight into the process of childbirth and the various options available when preparing for life's most special event. From pregnancy to the miraculous moment of birth, The Business of Being Born is an entertaining and informative celebration of the road to motherhood.Blindly, I thought it was a film, but it is a documentary. Hastily, I requested...
The Orphanage - BD
If you want to see an effective, thought- provoking and genuinely scary horror film these days, you have to look to either Asia or Europe to deliver the goods. It's disappointing to have to continually bemoan the lack of creativity in the American horror genre, but when all they churn out are tepid remakes of '70s classics or reworked versions of their far- better Asian or European counterparts, why not just go directly to the source? I was recently impressed with the French...
