Apparently there are some issues in translating books into the electronic files used by the Kindle.
For example, I just came across a sentence that should have read "Her arms around his neck..."
But, instead read "Her anus around his neck..."
Changes the meaning, a good bit, I believe...

Killer Mountain
'11. A mysterious creature terrorizes mountain climbers as they embark on a rescue mission. Starring: Aaron Douglas, Paul Campbell, Torrance Coombs.
Worst belayer ever.
And as much as I would desire that to be the extent of my review I must question the actions of one of the characters. He is looking at a map laying on a table. And blood starts dripping on it from above. And instead of looking up and wondering what the fuck it was, he does the whole "dab 2 fingers into the puddle, and smear it around with the thumb, while looking at it contemplatively".
Also, all these fools gon' die. There are 5 of them roped together. Climbing a sheer rock face. With seemingly no gear. So, I guess if one of them slips, the lot of them are gonna peel off the wall and make a nice cylon splat. In case you weren't aware, Aaron Douglas was a Cylon on Battlestar Galactica.
Apparently when you fly a helicopter so high that the air is too thin, it randomly causes sparks in the cockpit. And thus disappears he who my brother has nicknamed the "Mexican Mustache". Although, reports of his demise were premature. By about 15 seconds.
I hope everyone in this movie dies. They just suck at climbing. In fact, this movie would be pretty darn hilarious if everyone were to die due to various climbing chicaneries. Before they even encounter the monster.
Also, mystery leeches.
Also, it would appear that the Mexican Mustache has survived. But it looks like another one of those things where I say something, only for it to be revealed as untrue 15 seconds later.
Apparently their cams can't hold a person falling (although that was a very poorly place cam), but they can certainly hold an entire helicopter for quite some time.
And now, for something completely different. I'll get back to this at some point.

Jabberwock
'11. A peaceful man uses a powerful sword to save the woman he loves from a winged monster. Starring: Tahmoh Penikett, Kacey Barnfield, Richard Riddell, Ian Virgo, Michael Worth. Director Steven R. Monroe.
If one is to be fighting a computer generated monster with a sword, one should ensure that at least some portion of said sword goes off screen when one is meant to be striking said beast.
Also, this current scene has our intrepid heroes rock climbing and sword fighting. That would be fun. And tiring. And relatively monstericious.
Also, whenever I see this monster, I can't help but think of the phrase "Wingaling dragon".
Also, Helo and his apparently more swordtastic brother do a lot of fighting with real swords. And manage not to kill each other. Which is probably why they suck so bad at killing the jabberwock.
