      This sequel to the 2016 animated film Trolls, the Queen of hard rock tries to take over all the troll kingdoms, so queen poppy and her friends go on a quest to save all the trolls. Universal Studios planned on releasing this film in theaters but, since COVID-19 has shut down all theaters nationwide, they had no choice but to release this movie directly onto streaming services. I think this is a bold move for them, and the announcement came suddenly. I thought it was an ok movie, I did find one hidden message in it. That message is: Be who you want to be. Don't let anyone, or anything else decide who you should be. Parents, gather the whole family together, and watch this movie. I think there's family-fun for everyone!

        This 2019 horror film, Is about high school loner Bird Fitcher who comes across an old camera, and has no idea about the dark secrets behind it. But, it doesn't take long to discover that whoever takes their picture, meets their tragic end.

         I had never heard of this film until I was recently fooling around on DVD Netflix, and yes they still do DVD's (and Blu-Rays) by mail. So, I decided to rent it. It was supposed to come out back in 2017, but for some reason got held off by a couple of years, so That's probably the reason why you probably never heard of it. I thought that the movie was the type of on the Cliché PG-13 horror flick you see a lot. It wasn't scary, although I thought the ending was leaning toward the intense side. Parents, this is one of those movies, that you probably shouldn't show your kids. They'd probably get a little scared by it. So, you probably shouldn't show it to them.

Final Grade:
C+
