Tompkins Square Park, located in the East Village in Manhattan, has long been a sight the locals associate with politics and activism. There were anti-war protests there in the sixties, and in the eighties it became a de facto homeless camp and was ripe with drug problems.

When it was all said and done, between the evening of August 6^th and the morning of August 7^th, thirty-eight people – homeless and random bystanders alike – were injured in altercations with the NYPD and no police ...

The Changeling - Movie Review:

Directed by Peter Medak and based on the ‘true story’ of Russell Hunter, who co-wrote the film, 1980’s The Changeling is widely regarded as one of the best American ghost story movies ever made. And with good reason, as it’s a pretty spooky picture ripe with the type of atmosphere and intensity that’s lacking in so many modern CGI-laden cinematic tales of the supernatural.

The film introduces us to John ...
