video review : Doctor Sleep

video review : Doctor Sleep

You wouldn’t know from the title, but this is a sequel to The Shining. Both movies, based on Stephen King horror novels, are stupid, but this one is worse. The underlying concepts of telepathy and ghosts, which allow supernatural “magic” to happen seemingly at random, make for a plot that’s both silly and confusing.

Bang : Peach Mango

Bang : Peach Mango

“When life puts you to the test, don’t settle for second best”, the can reads, “Grab a Bang Energy and fuel your destiny!” This one does taste like Peaches and Mangos; a semitropical fruit blend that results in a mildly pleasant flavor. It’s the carbonation that dampers the experience.

Fast Twitch : Glacier Freeze

Fast Twitch : Glacier Freeze

You can enhance the concept of this energy drink, brought to you “from the makers of Gatorade”, by putting it in the Freezer to ice it up. Be careful though. It chills and becomes undrinkable, meaning it’ll have to be thawed, quicker than you might think. The taste is sweet and Kool-Aid-like.

Fast Twitch : Strawberry Watermelon

Fast Twitch : Strawberry Watermelon

This Fast Twitch, “from the makers of Gatorade”, tastes like Kool-Aid with too much water in it… or not enough sugar. That’s appropriate enough considering there’s “zero sugar”; a health boast nearly rescinded with the addition of its sucralose substitute. It’s an energy drink made for sports athletes.

my rating : 3 of 5

Goat Fuel : Gummy Bear

Goat Fuel : Gummy Bear

This is supposed to taste like Gummy Bears. It sort of does, but not enough to warrant the namesake. Speaking of which, as far as energy drinks go, it’s far from the “Greatest of all time”, though the can suggests the acronym actually refers to the quintessential drinker; the Muhammad Alis and Michael Jordans of the sports world.
