I Would Do Anything For Love: A Review of Trent Haaga’s “68 Kill”
We’ve all been there before; “happily” in a relationship with someone that we couldn’t imagine being with in our wildest dreams.

Films are supposed to be fun, entertaining ventures that allow an escape from the day-to-day happenings of our […]
Review: The Beach Boys Journey Into Their Vault For ‘1967 – Sunshine Tomorrow’
Coming off the biggest hit of their career and submerged in the mythical recording of “SMiLE,” The Beach Boys were in turmoil. They struggled to understand chief songwriter and producer Brian Wilson’s increasingly erratic behavior. The Beach Boys sank even lower on the popularity chart by pulling out of the Monterrey Pep Festival in 1967, […]
