Reviews of bad cinema?

movie reelI was thinking about adding a new feature to my blog that might actually encourage me to write on it more often. Would anyone actually read a weekly review on a bad B movie?

I love to watch movies of all flavors …

Bloody, gory, zombie, goofy, foreign, horror, slapstick, alien, sci-fi … You name it, and I will watch it. More than likely, you won’t see me watching incredibly mainstream movies, but would you want a review on a movie that you have already seen or would you like to get an opinion on some lesser known films?

Best Halloween film ever

October 21st, 2008 | Category: Holidays, Movies, My Film Career

I posted a link to this video last year, but I am posting it again for the unfortunate souls that missed it the first time around. This is an awesome concept for a horror film. I only wish that I had thought of it first!

Intelligence leads to unhappiness …

Jennifer renaissance festivalAs we age, we gain more knowledge and wisdom. This intelligence blocks our ability to enjoy life. It interferes with our creativity, our dreams, our fantasies …

The more we fill our heads with facts and figures the more we limit the powers of our imagination. It becomes harder and harder to float effortlessly on a cloud.

I know what I want to be when I grow up …

woman thinkingI gave it some serious thought and consideration. In reality, the decision may have only taken about 10 minutes; however, my mind was moving in slow motion trying to grasp every detail of my new life.

It was strange …

“Where are your demons and ghosts? Why do I not see one-eyed monsters on your wall or witches clinging to your window?”
