Masters of Horror season 1

Many horror television shows in the past have missed being actually scary. Some went for gore, some suspense, but too often it was just a twist in the plot hoping to be scare the audience. Masters of Horror managed to have made a few genuinely terrifying episodes. Some are just macabre stories that leave the viewer with a question, but a few were scary in the best kind of way.
The season finale, Imprint, was hard to watch and also morbidly fascinating. The story focuses on a Japanese prostitute with a horrible secret. truly a horrible thing to watch.

Drag me to Hell

Another failure. I'm almost sure the movie was intended as a comedy. Every cheap scare was attempted which only added to an overall seizure like quality to the film. I love in older movies when the camera would swing to something frightening and screeching violins would sound to let the audience know this was the climax. Drag me to Hell took a less traveled road and attempted that maneuver every 5 minutes or so.
This movie came complete with a toothless old woman gumming a young woman's face, animal sacrifice and a talking goat. Horrible.

"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies"

Horrible. I expected gore, adventure and Jane Austin-style drama. What I read was boring, verbose and aggravatingly slow. The book really should have focused more on zombies eating the whiny main characters.

Bitten and Feast

Feast: A horror movie from the crack team that is Matt Damon and Ben Aflec, Feast features a bar full of small towners who have to fight off four alien/monster/beasts covered in dead animal carcasses. There were a few genuinely funny parts, and the movie even had a wheelchair ridden young man who looked strikingly like Demitri Martin. Fun movie full of gore.

Bitten: A young, looserish EMT finds a woman who has been recently turned into a vampire and tries to help her adjust to her new changes. surprisingly adorable, this macabre romantic comedy is a fun watch.

Zombie video game revies

House of the Dead, 2 and 3: Simple arcade style shooter with no option for weapon advancement. Fun and with some fantastically gory scenes.

Dead Rising: You are a reporter helicoptered in to a mall where an outbreak of zombies are terrorizing the few locals left. I consistently have issues with the controls, but they designed it so you can spend as much time and energy as you wish mercilessly slaughtering zombies with various mall items. My favorite is the hot frying pan.

Left 4 Dead: you and three of your frfiend can fight zombies together! That is, of course, if you can find enough people not made motion sick by the camera in this game. It is really fun, but I need to get over shooting in small places and the sickness that follows if I want to play this game

Resident Evil 5: Long, gory and challenging, the makings of a good game.

Summer and Fall

I decided I hate Moscow so much I quit. I quit Moscow, and I quit U of I. After this summer I hope I never have to see this terrible boring town with smelly water again. While naturally I have learned a lot here, there has been a lot I have missed out on as well.
The hard water here left deposits in my hair and I had to cut it all off, I had to make three hour trips to have my braces tightened when I still had them on, and I missed out on time with Jack before he passed away in the fire.
It wasnt all bad, I have made many friends, found out what I want to do for a living and I have learned more about how much I love home. In realizing what I want to do for a living I have signed up for a summer course to become a Certified Nurses Assitant so that I can have a better job while I go to school to get some kind of medical technician certification. I plan to volunteer over the summer in the hospital to see what I might like to do.
It will be a while before I can get into any serious schooling again as I have the most busy next year I have ever had. For school I have my certification from June to Late August,I have Katie's wedding in August, followed quickly by my brother's wedding in early September in Virginia, followed by my older sister's wedding one week later back here. I fly to Phoenix with Cindy for a small vacation in early October, did I mention I have to be enrolled at NIC full time during the fall too? Then I must work as hard as I can and save up to fly to CHina with my family in April.
Too much traveling? never. I adore traveling and if I'm lucky I might get a traveling nurse job eventually.
