Review: The True Legend of the Eiffel Tower
The True Legend of the Eiffel Tower Simon Brook Koch Vision Street: 10.03 I’ve been waiting for my chance to use superfluous French euphemisms in my reviews.

Review: Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terrorism
Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terrorism Alex Jones Disinformation Street: 10.31 Terrorstorm has been hailed as the “Matrix of Truth” and other such drivel from like-minded liberal reviewers.

Suicide: A Crappy Troma Movie
