The Exorcist (1971) Novel Review

Image
     I was a preteen when I witnessed the film The Exorcist  for the first time.  My older sister convinced me to watch it at the rental store during our visit at our Father’s home shortly after our parents separated.  We had successfully used our Ouija board around the same time we watched it together, so the ideas that evil spirits were real had already become a reality to us.  But before I get into that story, let me do a review of the book first.     I had purchased an early hardcover edition of the novel while I was working in the supposedly haunted Night Owl Confectionary on Fairlight Drive in Saskatoon.  I experienced one or two strange occurrences, such as seeing a person walking in with someone and suddenly realizing there was only one customer in the store…  I worked the night-shift there for a year or so and when the slow hours of the night came, I sat on the stool at the cash register and read the no...

Remembering the Video Stores

Image
     In the late 80’s/early 90’s my family’s source for entertainment was the Grosvenor Park Shopping Centre video rental store TVS on 8 th Street east in Saskatoon.  One of mine and my older sister’s favourite VHS rentals was Little Monsters which often scared the crap out of me as a child.  As I grew into my preteen years my love for renting VHS tapes became far more twisted.  At one point my mother and I rented all 7 Nightmare on Elm Street movies.  Our  TVS  location later got bought out by Roger’s Video , then VHQ , Movie Gallery , and closed for good.  It’s now a Mr. Mike’s Steakhouse after the tragic fall of video store chains… This was the 22nd Street location      We also rented video games from these stores and we once started renting from the Blockbuster Video after my parent’s late rental fees got too high at what was Roger’s Video at that time.  We rented the infamous Virtual B...

The Little Vampire (1985) Review

Image
     In my book “Becoming the Devil They Fear: A Gay Book of Shadows” I briefly mention that my older sister and I would run around in capes pretending to be vampires and scaring the crap out of my mother, making her think we might attempt to fly out our bedroom windows. Our favourite TV show at the time was “The Little Vampire”, a Canadian-German children's television series created by the German Polyphon Film- und Fernsehgesellschaft and Canadian Norflicks Productions Ltd. The series is based upon the similar books written by Angela Sommer-Bodenburg.      I attempted to watch the full series on YouTube recently, however some of the audio files did not match with the video. And it wasn’t just a second or two difference, it was far more than that which made the certain clips unwatchable. But I still wanted to watch the full series as my inner-child was so excited to watch it all again. I could only remember glimpses of the show prior to re-watching i...
