I haven’t seen any of the VENOM movies. I don’t think that will change.

WOMAN OF THE HOUR doesn’t reinvent the wheel as stories about real-life serial killers go, but it does find a way to get under the viewer's skin once or twice.

I liked WOMAN OF THE HOUR quite a bit, even though it does fizzle out a bit at the end. It's worth watching for the scene Scott mentions of Cheryl and Rodney's pseudo-date at the bar, and also for the scenes on The Dating Game itself, which are actually pretty funny.

I had forgotten there was a second Venom film. And if I knew, I had completely forgotten that they got Michelle Williams??

since this ties i with Spider-Man, I'll take this opportunity to say that I really like Holland as SM, but I have not enjoyed his films. It's like how Pierce Brosnan got saddled with some real clunkers in his Bond outings.

How you feel about Holland is how I feel about Andrew Garfield. THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN is a truly terrible movie.

I'm just happy in the third Venom they let Tom Hardy (as Venom) drop bars on the soundtrack and still, for whatever reason, have 3D screenings. Still kind of sad Eminem didn't return to complete the trilogy.

I’d like to pair up “Woman of the Hour” with “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” just to have a double-feature that uses “The Dating Game” as its backdrop. What do a hitman and a serial killer have in common? A stupid game show!
