  Review by LaughingMan : February 9, 2012

  Sorely lacking in any shred of realism that makes "lost footage" horror films compelling, ABC's new "Paranormal Activity"-inspired series "The River" runs dry.

  Dexter: Season 2

  Review by Kenny Farino : October 23, 2010

  They added another staple to the series in Season Two that threw me off: a gratuitous amount of sex. Granted, that's not a bad thing for the fans in their teens, but it made Dexter, as a series, seem a bit... mainstream? Lots of other shows have steamy sex scenes, but how many have a lawman killing people in such an awesome way? Absolutely none, that's how many. One thing that I have felt about television shows or movies when they add sex scenes is that they are either reaching out to a hornier demographic, or the writers can't think of anything that can replace that scene so sex is used for the sole purpose of padding.

  Dexter: Season 1

  Review by Kenny Farino : October 14, 2010

  Dexter Morgan is a blood spatter analyst who works for Miami Metro Homicide by day, and who murders serial killers, rapists, and other scum of the earth by night. Instilled by the Code of Harry, he only focuses on going after the dregs of society. Dexter also lives a double-life, trying to appear like he is a normal member of society by retaining a girlfriend, Rita, and maintaining a job while also following the #1 rule of the Code: "Don't get caught." But Miami Metro makes a chilling discovery when they discover the chopped up body of a prostitute without any blood near the scene of the crime. Soon, a new serial killer emerges, the Ice Truck Killer, and Dexter is soon involved with a deadly game of cat and mouse that reveals more than he is prepared for.
