I'm not much of a Star Trek fan outside of the feature films. I've tried many times to watch the various TV series, but they all seemed the same to me, no matter how differently they were dressed. And yes, that includes Star Trek: Discovery, which returns to CBS All Access later this week. For the record, I am excited about the new Picard series, because Patrick Stewart is the tits!

Oculus is a movie Shawn and I had a lot of anticipation for. We dug director Mike Flanagan's previous flick, Absentia, which is one of the best low-budget indie horrors in recent memory. To top things off we landed an exclusive interview with Oculus composers The Newton Brothers prior to release. Of course, we never got to catch the thing in theatres. I finally sat down with Oculus the other night and got to answer the age-old question -- was it worth the wait? Was it? Stick with me!

Thursday night after much deliberation and a few beers to numb my better judgement, I got tickets for Oculus. I was a little surprised at how empty the theatre was. Maybe 40 bodies in the seats max. I was taken in by the minimal ad campaign with the stories of the mirror and the tragedies involved. Lately, trailers seem to give away every key detail and take the jump scares away, so needless to say, I was intrigued.
