Things I found on the Interweb

Hackers created this road sign in Austin, Texas. It's like a dream come true. Thanks to "Bloody Disgusting for this one. http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/15098
I have never seen a better album cover. IN MY LIFE!
Rudy Ray Moore was an actor, producer, and comedian best known for his character "Dolemite." I would have posted a "Dolemite" trailer but it is in even worse taste than this album cover. I just couldn't do it. Easily found on YouTube. Just be prepared to take a shower after.

New Improved Coraline Trailer


This gives a better taste of the "creepiness" of the film. I am so excited to see this! I saw the "3D" trailer when I went to see "My Bloody Valentine." By the way, that stupid movie gave me major nightmares! Non-zombie related ones! In one nightmare, Leatherface was chasing me around my lake house and killed my Grandmother with his telekinetic powers. That's crazy! Everyone knows Leatherface doesn't have telekinetic powers.

Long Live Stains..


Not only is "Stains" an awesome name for a dog, Stains IS A truly awesome dog. This clip had Jonathan and I laughing our asses off. Yao just felt sorry for Stains. After all, who can resist cupcakes?

I Heart 3-D

Every horror film should be in 3D! Its awesome! Finally a half-way decent horror flick. "My Bloody Valentine" is yet another remake (I am ashamed to admit I have never seen the original. I know, my bad. But it is a Canadian film and despite what my Netfix "Movies for you" feature thinks, I don't love Canadian films. Seriously, it had this whole list of Canadian films it thought I might like. When the fuck did I rent a Canadian film? I must of rented a couple for Netflix to think I was some "Canadaphile" or whatever you call people obsessed with Canada.) Anyway, on its own "My Bloody Valentine" would be a slightly above average slasher flick. But add 3D and it becomes the coolest thing I have seen so far this year! Shit! It is the ONLY thing I have seen this year. I was in love at first kill, when the "Miner" delivers a pick-ax to the back of some teenagers head and the poor sucker's eyeball comes flying out of the screen. Another thing I like about this movie is that the killer sticks with the same weapon the entire film (with the exception of a shovel shoved in the middle of a girl's face, but the killer was improvising because he couldn't find his pick-ax.) He finds "inventive" ways to use his weapon of choice, and you really have to appreciate that. I can't believe I just wrote that.

Another day, another crappy movie..

Finally saw "Mirrors" last night and once again I am glad I didn't waste my money to see it in the theatre. Not that it is bad, its just so-so. Kiefer Sutherland plays an ex-cop who gets a job as a nightwatchmen at a old department store. Turns out something EVIL lurks in the mirrors in the store, and Sutherland starts seeing things and basically losing his shit. The film had one good scene. Amy Smart tears her own face in half. And yes, you do see the whole thing. So if you want to see someone tear their own face in half, I highly recommend "Mirrors."
