Frontiers The Movie in Select Theaters and On DVD!
For those of you that have read some of my blogs, you know that I am a movie freak. I even ran a movie review website shortly and created all the reviews myself. Comedies have always been the favorite of mine, but since I met my fiance about 6 years ago, a Horror Movie or two have crept into my life one freak out at a time.
When I saw the trailer for Frontier(s) I was pumped almost immediately. The movie is currently in theaters and the buzz is all over the net. It has been a long time since I was pumping with adrenaline just from watching a movie trailer. I really like movies from LionsGate films and this one looks to be another winner.
One thing that I cannot figure out is the DVD release ONE week after movie release. That is something that is quite unheard of since the movies are usually pumped for everything they are worth before going to DVD. According to the select theater listings the closest theater that is showing the movie is in Detroit, Michigan. I am not sure that I will have to time to travel and see it, it’s over 1,000 miles away at this point, but it is out on DVD so that is an option for me.
Gore? Plenty of it, by the looks of it. But if you liked the movies in the Saw series, this one might be right up your alley. When you watch this trailer or even venture through the website, you get the picture for what you are in for rather quickly. Enjoy!

Identity Theft is Not Going Away – Get LifeLock
In addition to this blog I run some other sites, including an ecommerce website. As most of my readers know, ecommerce can be very touchy when it comes to people making a big ticket purchase with a credit card that has been stolen. In an instance that happened to my about 4 years ago a stolen credit card was used to make a purchase from my website. Basically, it went unnoticed until the real owner of the card saw her statement.
In the end, she made what is known as a “charge back” on that purchase. My credit card processor, at the time, allowed the charge back even with sufficient evidence from myself regarding the ship dates, tracking and other information and I was stuck with the bill. The crook get away with a nice flat panel TV and I was out about $1300.
My point is that if you use credit, debit or online banking, you will want to make sure that you are protected. What a better way to be protected than to have lifelock. LifeLock will help protect you against identity theft and junk mail. For 7 years in a row, identity theft was at the top of the Federal Trade Commission’s complaint list.
