AMP Watches: Vampires Suck
We at AMP were feeling a little nostalgic this month and wanted to travel all the way back to 2010–the height of Twilight fever–to watch Vampires Suck, a film parodying the Twilight Series.

Battle Royale As I’ve recently found myself with plenty of free time, I finally decided to start working through my backlog of movies I’ve been meaning to watch. Kinji Fukasku’s 2000 sci-fi/thriller Battle Royale was first on my list. My only knowledge prior to watching the film was vague references to it when talking about […]
