Halloween in Southeast Texas

As cooler temperatures and falling leaves take over the balmy South, so does the spirit of Halloween. Decoration and costume shops are reanimating dead strip centers. Homes and offices are sporting cobwebs and ghosts — both fixtures normally frowned upon in most places, but openly encouraged as the holiday nears.

Gosling oozes cool as The Driver

The funky hot pink opening credits in the retro font Mistral signal this is not your ordinary car chase caper.

Dead Island: Enticing to kids but not for kids

Don’t trust my opinion about Techland’s Dead Island, released just weeks ago on Sept. 9. Instead take the advice of a 9-year-old gaming guru who proclaims this video game just ain’t for kids.
