Noel Vera Launches New Blog

Filipino Film critic Noel Vera launches a new blog at Blogspot.

It's called Critic After Dark: A Review of Philippine and World Cinema, and Other Grotesqueries.

He used to have an AOL blog called My Journal, Or: Thing to Do When There's Nothing Else To, and any updates to that site will just point to entries in his Blogspot site.

I remember Noel from grade school. He was one of the few keenly interested in reading. Mostly science fiction. I recall seeing Isaac Asimov among the various novels Noel carried around.

If you haven't read any of his movie reviews, or if you're interested in Philippine cinema, Lino Brocka, Nora Aunor, Christopher De Leon and more, then check out Noel Vera's Critic After Dark today.

(In the meantime, I'll go look for his book Critic After Dark: A Review Of Philippine Cinema, which I hear is available at Booktopia.com.ph)

For the curious: Here's How To Get To Booktopia, by Nina Fuentes.
