A DAY OF WARMTH...
SUNSHINE...BIRDS SINGING...


Well maybe not singing.

I think they are all still frozen in their homes...like I thought I was.


Today got to a melting point...water dripped down my neck as I quickly made my decor change outside. We have now changed from Xmas to Valentines/Mardi Gras theme.

Why Mardi Gras you ask...it falls on Feb 16th this year. 2 days before Valentines, so I got to sneak that in too.

Remember this is for my viewing pleasure...

I LOVE making Valentines Day a LARGE to-do, decorating wise. It gets noticed, so people in this town won't forget that it's here...until I change for St. Patrick's....;)



The fresh air was SOOOOO invirgorating! I got all done that I could, only need to check the lights at dark...



Mean while BillyRoo surprised me with the new Halloween 2 DVD by Rob Zombie...

This was WAY better than the first movie made!

Zombie writes this one his way. The story line is similar with his type of twist. It's a bit gory for my taste but not as bad as some. Most will call it "B" grade but what other category would murder/gore fall into?

The Dr. Sam Loomis in this movie series are two different character lines. Donald Pleasence [1st] is completely annoying in his whiny way. Whereas Malcolm McDowel plays the character better...slimy instead of whiny. Much better

Zombie's wife plays Michael's mother...so-so acting.

The movie kind of jumped around for me but then I was always comparing it to the orginal version. Those who haven't seen the first version ,wouldn't find it a problem. It's a cult classic sort of thingy.

The eerie part of the movie to me was the white horse.

Not because it's scary or anything...just that it's a horse that I've had dreams about lately? WTF!

For a couple a weeks now, I've been having these horse dreams off and on? Some are nightmares and some are soothing...

Will blog on that next...



It still puzzles me about the horse....?


I did not know about the Zombie sequel either so I did not know about the horse in it...?

MARATHON DIDN'T GO AS PLANNED...

Seems my son & I, don't happen to have ANY Friday the 13th DVD in our collection [not that I'd really want any] and all I could come up with was...

FREDDY vs JASON

Winner kills all.

Freddy Krueger is in Hell - literally. It's been nearly ten years since Krueger, one of the scariest horror movie characters of all time (from Nightmare on Elm Street series), invaded peoples' dreams to exact his deadly form of revenge and murder. But now, his memory has been systematically erased by a town determined to put an end to Freddy once and for all. Potential victims have been drugged to prevent them from dreaming, rendering impotent the master of nightmares. They've eliminated their fear of Freddy, absolute torture for an egomaniac psychopath who's a legend in his own mind. Like an inmate with a life sentence, Freddy's been reduced to plotting a fantastic revenge that will never happen.

Until, that is, Freddy resurrects Jason Voorhees, the equally iconic madman from the Friday the 13th film series. Jason is the perfect means for Freddy to once again instill fear on Elm Street, creating a window of opportunity for him to emerge from his purgatory. Recognizing how easily manipulated Jason is, Freddy tricks Voorhees into journeying to Springwood to start a new reign of terror.

But as the bodies begin to pile up on Elm Street and Freddy's fearsome reputation assumes new life, he discovers that Jason isn't willing to cease his murderous ways and step aside so easily. Now, with a terrified town in the middle, the two titans of terror enter into a horrifying showdown of epic proportions, alternating between the world of dreams and the harsh reality of the living world.

Who will win and who will lose in this battle to end all battles.....?

I've must of watched this show many times and I still shake my head at the end!

Why do I put myself through those nightmares....

How can you tell I don't have a life?

Because I went right out after that and rented 2 more killers along the same line.

Not that they were psycho murders...just had killer [boring] story lines!

1. DuD!...."Way of War" starring Cuba Gooding Jr.

...."Cuba, Cuba, Cuba...I try really hard to like you! I DO like you as an actor but maybe you should try reading the script yourself before signing the deal or if you are reading them...Quit it!"

I'm not sure how this movie even ended because it got my "SNORE" of approval...ZZZZZZ!

Note to writers..."Don't quit your day job!"

2. Boring..."River Queen" which featured Kiefer Sutherland.

..."I try really hard to like this guy as an actor, mainly because he's better than his father [who is a real SNORE] but also sad that he does crummy movies like, "Mirrors" was another SNORE [aside from one or two spine tinglers]."

This movie should be classified as "Sappy"! Not my cup-of-tea!

So that's how exciting my evening went and still NO appearance of BAD LUCK [knock on wood]...

:)
