“Somewhere above the middle of Canadian wilderness, a single-engine plane flies on its way to Alaska, a 14 year old boy it’s only passenger.
Somewhere above the tall pines, it’s pilot has a heart attack mid flight and falls limb in his seat.
Somewhere above the beautiful lake, this plane abruptly falls, crashing through the trees and into the water.
Somewhere in these woods…
Brian Robeson is all alone, with nothing but a hatchet on his belt.”
.
Recently read Hatchet and I’m absolutely obsessed with it 🥰 got really inspired and had to make some fan-covers! The story is extremely tense, keeping you on your toes until the very end, and Brian himself is a very likeable character that not only learns the ways of the forest, but builds a type of spiritual connection with it, respects its power and the power of the creatures that inhabit it.

Back in 2013, a hyperactive homeless man became a viral sensation after a selfless act of vigilante justice. Hollywood scumbags tried to cash in on his fad celebrity and offered him the world; he was far more interested in remaining transient and hyperactive. 90 days later, he murdered an old man.
The Hatchet Weilding Hitchhiker is the Netflix documentary about Kai, and all of the gross idiots who overlooked his obvious mental problems in a desperate attempt to squeeze money out of his viral fame.
The Internet is an amoral toilet now, and was also that in 2013. OF COURSE we fell in love with a lunatic and egged him on. But as always, we were wrong to do it, and Grandpa Media was just as wrong to try and take advantage of it.
As a documentary, THWH is fine, if not a tad melodramatic in its framing of Kai as a gathering stormcloud. And it lets the various players speak for themselves, so even when they are obvious shits, the documentary makes no commentary, unless another character is critical of someone. I understand this as a traditional "neutral" journalistic choice, but that also feels like an easy cop-out so the filmmakers don't have to contend with questions of bias.
Guys. You made a documentary about a meme who became a convicted murderer, in the world of California fame-vultures. Probably safe to pick the general side of sensible WTF in this great bloody shitstain of an event. It is certainly a me thing, but I'm not giving you points for objectivity when you are now exploiting the story of exploitation run amok. Kind of trashy.
Trashy or not, it is still a generally good documentary about something you probably haven't thought about for 10 years now, if you aren't so young you don't even remember this. It is worth seeing.
Just be aware that everyone and everything here is the absolute WORST.

Snowflake Book Review’s
Title: Rebel Guardians MC #2 Hatchet
Author: Liberty Parker
Pages: 267
Snowflake Rating:❄❄❄❄(4/5)
Synopsis:
Jayden “Hatchet” Hatcher is the Enforcer for the Rebel Guardians MC. He hides his past behind jokes, and will do anything for the brothers he has now. Life is good with easy women and plenty of fun. Until she walks into the barbeque that fateful summer weekend.
Donna Jo “DJ” Feldman is a single mom to Ralynn. On her own since she found out she was pregnant, she has a handful of people she trusts implicitly, including her best friend, Caraleigh Jensen. When she goes to visit Cara and meets the man they call Hatch, she realizes that life is too short not to reach for the brass ring.
What started out as a bit of fun soon turns into so much more for the two of them. But Hatch has unknown skeletons and when they come calling, will what DJ feels for him be enough? Can they survive with the love they have for one another and with their Rebel Guardians family at their back?

In this video, my roommate will be reacting to her first time watch of "Hatchet II" from 2010. This was a Patron Subscriber pick from Chaos, and this was just intense as the first one!

heyy, i’m unloading my current and finished reads over end of fall/early winter? hope you’ve enjoyed these reads too or they peak your interest now!
fledgling by octavia butler, wanted a cool vampire read around halloween and this suited that desire perfectly. the protagonist is a young, black vampire girl with amnesia after devastating attack on her community. because of her lack of memories it’s convenient for the reader to learn with the main character all about butler’s take on vampire culture and relations. more sci/fi than horror, but still some serious themes to acknowledge before reading. previously i’d read kindred in school and enjoyed her writing, fledgling was no exception.
harry potter and the deathly hallows, FINALLY finished this series after years of off/on reading. i did know how it plays out from the movies but i can respect rowling in not holding back (the death toll was bigger than i remembered). i liked the passage of harry’s thoughts before going into the forbidden forest best, felt very real. however i will continue to block out the epilogue from my mind body and soul.
hatchet by gary paulsen, so good! i read this in elementary school and rereading it now was just as engaging, i forgot a bit of it and brian’s hunger driving him throughout the entire book was much more intense to think about compared to my fourth grade comprehension. paulsen’s imagery is detailed and doesn’t shy from the rough parts of nature and survival.
my current reads include woodsong by gary paulsen, which is his own experiences in alaskan wilderness and dogsledding, the final book of the trials of apollo series the tower of nero, and dark fantasy novel mordew by alex pheby, which is book one to a planned trilogy.

Rating: 3/5
Book Blurb: Set more than one hundred years after the Borden murders, this propulsive, supernatural thriller imagines what might happen if history were to repeat itself today. Perfect for fans of Kara Thomas and Courtney Summers!
When Mariella Morse accuses her boyfriend, Vik Gomez, of murdering her wealthy parents with an axe, the town is quick to believe her. It doesn’t help that Vik is caught standing over her parents’ bodies with blood on his hands, unable to remember anything about the night in question.
But Vik’s sister, Tessa, knows that Vik would never be capable of such a gruesome crime. Haunted by the mistakes she made that led her family to move to Fall River, MA in the first place, she sets out to prove her brother’s innocence.
Tessa’s search for answers will lead her into a sprawling, notoriously cursed forest, where she and Mariella must face a darkness that has lurked within their town since before the days of Lizzie Borden—the original axe murderess of Fall River.
Review:
A paranormal teen slasher inspired by the Lizzie Borden murders! Mariella Morse is a beautiful and wealthy white girl who's parents are murdered with an axe... and the person she's accusing of doing it? Her boyfriend Vik Gomez, a person of color who is poor. It doesn't help that Vik is caught standing over Mariella's parents' bodies covered in blood and with an axe at his feet, however he doesn't have any memories of the night in question. Now it's up to his sister, Tessa to prove that Vik isn't the one responsible and that something else is going on. Tessa's search for the truth will spiral out of control and soon she'll find that the real villain was someone she never saw coming. While the story is suppose to be Lizzie Borden inspired, I was really hoping it would be more female focused and inciting, rather than *spoilers* have the main villain be a boy who not only is a psychopath and is drugging girls but violates and touches the other one without her consent. It just felt really gross and I did not enjoy this take on the book at all. I was expecting something much different than what I actually read. This story is very much a paranormal mystery and if that's what you are looking for then this is perfect for you.
*Thanks Netgalley and Random House Children's, Delacorte Press for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review*

THE HATCHET WIELDING HITCHHIKER- 2023 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tumblr media
Very interesting documentary movie about a homeless guy Kai, who became a viral sensation when he stopped an assualt on a woman by smashing a guys head with a hatchet.
He became very famous and had lots of opportunities available to him, but turned out not to be as sweet and innocent as everone presumed....
Really enjoyable and pretty short documentary.

I loved how this story recaptured the eerie tale of Lizzie Borden. This has a murder/mystery and horror/ghost story vibe that I really enjoyed.
The popular girl in town, Mariella, starts dating the new guy, Vik. But when her parents are suddenly brutally murdered in the same way Lizzie Borden's were, Vik gets the blame. Soon, his sister, Tessa, is there to help him.
This really had a cool feeling to this story. Seeming realistic and also supernatural at once. It's definitely a very creepy read!
Out October 10, 2023!
Thank you, Netgalley and Publisher, for this Arc!

Check out our book review for Hatchet by Gary Paulsen!
Hatchet is a 1987 young adult survival novel by Gary Paulsen that switches between exciting action and melancholic thought on life’s questions. It is the first in a series of five novels, and won the 1988 Newbery Honor. Hatchet is an excellent novel for anyone, and will definitely keep you hooked!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
Hatchet: Book Review
Tumblr media
This entire book is full of hatchet ex machina
Here's the problem I have with this book: Why would your Mother give you a hatchet as a going away present to see your father who she's been cheating on? What would possess her to do that?
I do enjoy joining Brian on his journey, while he's learning that life is harsher than the reality he is used to. In the beginning, he complains about wanting a cheeseburger and a milkshake (can relate), but toward the end he has fully accepted his reality.
I rated it five stars becuase I really did enjoy the survival aspect of the book, it seemed relatable and accurate.
