Warrior Priest, post-apocalyptic world, vampires, and some serious fight sequences. Will the good guys win?
Priest | 2011
Blurb
The top priest from an old war with vampires must save the day for a bunch of unworthy people. Priest is shot beautifully, has an easy to follow story, and action scenes worthy of your time. It doesn’t hurt that the four leads are very pleasing to the eye!

Office Space | 1999
Blurb
Office Space is a Dark comedy about work that kills you slowly (we all can relate to that). The film will have you laughing and maybe thinking about changing jobs. Quirky characters, solid writing, and quotes you can use for years!

Calvin & Hobbes is one of the best comics ever published in newspapers. Seriously. Fans were crushed when Bill Watterson stopped creating the world that they lived in by the end of 1995. 18 years later the documentary is released and answers some of the whys...this is a must see for any fan of C&H!
