So the other day I went to see the Book of Eli with one of my girlfriends. I love a good post-apocalyptic adventure, and I’d read a review by Roger Ebert that had piqued my interest. Unfortunately, I had a real problem with the movie. Since seeing it, I have checked various reviews and not [...]
The SFSite has published their first February update, and with it, two of my reviews. First up, my review of the UFO ‘documentary’, The Billy Meier Story: UFO’s and Prophecies from Outer Space:
