Doctor Who: The Talons of Weng-Chiang

Action Adventure Drama Science Fiction TV Movie

Synopsis

Death stalks the fogbound streets of Victorian London: young women are going missing, horribly mutilated bodies are found floating in the Thames and criminal gangs terrorize the innocent. At the heart of this tangled web sits the mysterious Li H'sen Chang, sorcerer and hypnotist, and his grotesque sidekick Mister Sin. The Doctor dons deerstalker hat and cape to seek out the sinister force lurking in the shadows of the metropolis, for the Talons of Weng-Chiang are reaching out to shred the human race.

Countdown to Halloween

I officially began participating in John Rozum's COUNTDOWN TO HALLOWEEN blog even in 2007. John no longer runs it but I still have joined in (almost) every year since. These are all the films I posted about in every Countdown to Halloween. ***Work In Progress*

THE HONEY-DIPPED PIECED-TOGETHER FLICKERS PROJECT 2011 🍯

So I don't have exact tallies of every movie I watched in 2011 and when - - however - - I do have my blog "The Land of Cerpts and Honey" on which I would review some films when I watched them. Since all the posts are dated, I'm using those dates to determine when I watched each film in 2011. This is necessarily a VERY incomplete list but the best record I have of my film watching for that year.
