The problem with Daddy’s Home is one of pitch. It wants us to believe that Brad is a nice guy, and we believe it, because he is played by Will Ferrell in Family Man Mode. Sure, he might have the occasional overwrought meltdown, but he looks as fundamentally decent as his quality credit score implies. But that meltdown, prompted...

On the other hand, when...

My Behringer BDI21 arrived about a couple of hours or so ago, so I figured I would do a demo. Mind you, this is the first time I've ever played through it. I threw the 9 volt battery in it, plugged it into my Roland VS-1880, and basically hit record. I took and used the exact same settings from Tech...

For most genres, that translates to respectability and a Rotten Tomatoes score of approximately 60-75%, but for horror,...
