A blog where I fangirl about shows & movies and pass it off as reviewing
Warning: spoilers abound!
I freaking loved this movie! There is just so much awesomeness in it, I cannot express how much I loved it! Says the person who’s writing a review blog post of said movie.
Ok, anyway, I loved the Fear Street books as a kid. R.L. Stine was my favorite author for a really long time. And this movie perfectly captures those feelings. There’s a ton to get into here.

Ok, I watched the latest episodes when they first dropped, but I’m writing this review so late because, honestly, I couldn’t figure out what to say. Let me be clear that I did like most of the episodes in this latter half of the season (though the musical episode fell a little flat). God deciding to retire and the angels, including Lucifer, fighting for the throne was a fun storyline. I actually wish there was more focus on it - the drama in the last couple episodes was fantastic. But there was one thing, one issue that Lucifer was dealing with that tainted the entire experience for me.

Last season, we found out that Lucifer’s mother escaped from Hell. I was… dead wrong about who she was. Turns out she’s the goddess of all creation/God’s ex-wife, which is an interesting choice considering it’s a huge departure from the Christian imagery that inspired this show.

I’ve heard good things about this show in the past and I was not disappointed. I loved it so much! The devil partnering up with a detective to solve murder in LA? Sold! Not gonna lie, I did not know what I was in for when I started, so I was pleasantly surprised with what I got. I’m a sucker for both crime shows and supernatural stuff, so I am most certainly a member of the target audience.
