Just a record of my journey through the wonderful voyages of the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701).  
* And since most are stand-alone, I feel comfortable putting them in order of my personal preference.


Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner in Star Trek (1966)

Comedy is one of the most subjective things ever so this list is mainly meant to highlight and recommend shows I find especially funny.

Movies and Tv Shows I am not too proud of loving, but enjoy watching anyway.

James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes, Joshua Jackson, and Michelle Williams in Dawson's Creek (1998)

Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta, and Yeardley Smith in The Simpsons (1989)

This year we got all the more reason to be cooped up in our homes. So break out the Misfits CDs while you put up those fake cobwebs, and all sorts of decor, get a pumkpin: carve it, roast it, make some soup, or bake it into a nice pie, and watch some spooky horror movies to unwind from the real nightmare outside.

Robert Z'Dar, Mark Frazer, Mathew Karedas, Melissa Moore, Gerald Okamura, Cameron, and Cranston Komuro in Samurai Cop (1991)

I only chose movies where Christmas is a main or crucial element in the plot, so that's the reason why Die Hard, or Batman Returns etc. are left out (even though I love them very much).

Chevy Chase in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)

The films and shows I am aiming to watch throughout the month of October - mostly stuff I haven't seen before - and a few thoughts on 'em.

Spooky Halloween to all!

Marilyn Eastman, Duane Jones, and Judith Ridley in Night of the Living Dead (1968)

Bill Milner and Charlotte Vega in The Lodgers (2017)

Grab somebody to get the most enjoyment out of watching these specific Tv Series. It's kind of a two-way street. Many of these I gave up, because it just did not really engage me, but I knew that if I were to watch it with someone I'd have a really good time and some of these I absolutely loved watching with a either a group of friends, my sister or my mom.

Spooky Halloween for all! These are my personal picks to watch through October 1st till Halloween the 31st, in order to get into the spirit of the season. I've never seen any of these movies beforehand (though some of them are classics, I know) so I'll write a little review or recommendation for each after watching them. This list is mainly made for myself, but I hope some people will find some use out of it for themselves too, whether as inspiration for a good ol' Halloween horror marathon or just to simply discover some great horror films (along with me).
