Deja Entendu & A Fair Haired Child

"The time has come for colds and over coats. . ."

It's Fall again. What does that mean? Brand New's "Deja Entendu" is on repeat. I've never really attempted to closely associate music with a season but I can't help but to always spin this CD in the Fall and Winter. Maybe it's the slower pace and the brooding lyrics. Maybe it's because I first listened to it around this time of the year when I was in 9th grade.

Wow. Now I just feel fucking old.

I watched William Malone's "The Fair Haired Child" last night and I've got to say that even though I figured it out pretty quickly, it was still one creepy and effective little horror movie. Strong acting? Check. Serviceable yet shallow mystery? Check! Fun fucking times? Check and check! Seriously, hunt down this film. It's from Masters Of Horror. It's got style, laughs, scares and enough weirdness to make almost any movie goer sit back and enjoy the ride. Plus it's got one hell of an ending too!

P.S. Watch those black and white shots! Damn!

Katy Perry & The Fine Art Of Delayed Gratification

I loathe Katy Perry. Granted, I haven't heard her entire album but 'I Kissed A Girl' was annoying enough to close my normally open mind. But, I can't deny that "Hot & Cold" is one annoying yet incredibly catchy tune. I've woke up with it in my head for about three days now. Now I'm questioning giving this young lady a second shot. So, yes, I'm more than likely going to beat my head off of a brick wall if I end up liking this girl. But at least it will have a catchy little soundtrack, which is always a plus.

I can see it now.

"You're hot then you're cold. . ." *slam* "you're yes then you're no. . ." *slam* "you're in and you're out . . ." *bleeds to death*

So I've been putting off my viewing of the rest of Masters Of Horror Season 1. I feel like if I were to slam them down in a short period of time, I'd burn myself out. It's delayed gratification. I want to enjoy them instead of rushing through them so I can discuss them with like minded horror fans. Except 'Dreams In The Witch House' Two fucking attempts at viewing it and I can't finish it. I like Stuart Gordon but I do not like this movie. God awful? Not quite. Enjoyable? Not to me!

Creative Juices: If Only Welch's Would See The Potential

A month or so back, social networking fell of my radar. I sort of swept it out of my life, so to speak. I felt like I had the people and things in my life needed to keep me happy, loved and entertained. Logging into MySpace every day or every few days made me feel stupid, like even the few minutes spent there could be used towards working on a script or talking to a real friend, not messaging some random (albeit cute) girl that I was never going to really know. So, I cut the strings. One month and counting with a MySpace. As for Facebook, the last time I had one it barely lasted a week. So, to me, social networking is not something I wish to partake in again, at least not any time in the forseeable future.

I've had numerous blogs and message boards over the years but I always went to them with some grand idea. Some large scale plan that never actually happened. Well, in the absence of MySpace, I started to think about small scale. Living for the moment so to speak. And then I realized that while traditionally blogging makes my head hurt, whether it's mine or someone else's, that maybe it could help.

I am first and foremost a writer but lately I've been lacking motivation. So, I decided to start a blog in an effort to boost my writing habits. So, I'm here with no clear purpose. I don't know what I'm going to write or when. But, if I write something, anything at all, I'll be happy.

Enjoy!
