"Blood Feast" is really improtant for being the first movie in color to feature graphic gore. Granted, it's a terrible movie on all accounts, but it's influence is undeniable.

This one is the only entry in the series I'll probably watch more than once.

I loved it the first time when it was Bruce Campbell. Not so crazy about the wannabe ripoff. Why? It's a whole subgenre of horror movies now, and a really terrible one at that. Like torture is something new in horror. With that kind of thought, I guess "Last House on the Left", "Salo", the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", and even "Blood Feast" are "torture porn." Jesus, get that sand out of your vagina and quit being such a weepy pussy when it comes to certain horror movies you weepy pussy.

Songs I never want to hear in bars again
Gary Floyd commented on Gary Floyd's blog entry in How To Vibrate
I've heard ZZ Top played a few times. Never heard CCR played though. People really love to play "Roadhouse Blues." Fitting, but I never liked The Doors. Jim Morrison was a horrible song writer. -
One of my faveorite CronoT moments is when he came back as Inuyasha. Anyways, cronoyasha complained about that Chuck Norris cartoon replacing Inuyasha as an April Fools prank. Wildpegasus then told him this: When wildpegasus tells you off, you should go kill yourself.

Yeesh. I took your advice, and now I will not be taking your advice again anytime in the near future. What a vulgar, disgusting movie. In a bad way. Torture porn disguised as an action flick. If you can't like a movie where a girl uses her chainsaw arm to kill off motherfuckers, then you have terrible taste in movies. Sorry, just the facts. Also, "torture porn" may be the stupidest term ever created. Every time somebody uses it, they look like an idiot.

Boris. Really, these guys are great. Church of Misery. I'd mention Merzbow, but he's really an acquired taste (I also don't know if you could consider noise music, as it's usually looked at as the antithesis of music.) Oh, and of course, Einsturzende Neubauten.

02.) Resident Evil: Extinction (2007) Plot: The third entry in the "Resident Evil" movie franchise sees Alice (Milla Jovovich) and a band of survivors from the previous (horrible) movie (including Oded Fehr and Mike "Where's Ice Cube?" Epps) and some new faces (Ali Larter as Claire Redfield and Ashanti-yes, that Ashanti) in a world reduced to a desert by the T-Virus. There's still plenty of undead, and the Umbrella Corperation want Alice-as she's the original. See, there's these clones-oh come on, you aren't watching this for plot. Review: Not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination, the third entry in the series is actually the best of the series so far. Sure, it's far from original-cribbing elements from Day of the Dead (1985) (domesticating the dead) and The Mad Max movies (post apocalyptic desert landscape), but it at least has some decent points to go with the mindless action. For starters, there is thankfully more undead action this time around, with sun baked zombies at nearly every corner. Also absent this time is dreadful Nu-Metal, and that's always a plus. The acting is at least competant, and the movie itself is the most competantly directed entry in the series, managing to make sure you don't get bored for the large part. Also, if you don't like Ashanti, you'll be glad to know her role is small (as is her time in the movie). That out of the way, the fact that Alice has powers and superhuman abilities (from the last movie, which I like to pretend didn't happen) is really dumb. That reminds me, you really don't care about anybody in this movie, as there is no character development whatsoever throughout. People appaear and disappear, and those who die are people you really didn't see much of anyways. The ending also leaves room for yet another sequal, and really, do we need another one. Ok, it made about $150 Million worldwide, so it's inevetible. That out of the way,t he series needs to end, as we can't keep getting sequal after sequal. It's tiresome. Still, it's a decent Saturday afternoon flick, and if you don't think too hard while watching it, you might sorta enjoy it. Final Verdict: 6/10. Dumb popcorn entertainment not at it's best, but hardly at it's worst, and is at least the best "Resident evil" movie so far. Check it out if nothing else is on. Next time: Zombie Bloodbath

Hey, pushing carts helps his physique ya know.

Eh, so far, I think the We Got It For Cheap Vol. 3 mixtape is the best hip hop album I've heard so far this year. I'll definately give The Nigger Tapes a listen soon enough.

31 Days of the Dead starts...now. 01.) Night of the Creeps (1986) Plot: Alien space worms enter people through their mouths (insert penis joke here), turning them into malicious zombies. Can Det. Ray Cameron (Tom Atkins) save the day? Review: If you love 80's horror, you've most likely seen this. It's not on DVD yet (legal problems apparently) , which is a shame, as it's a 80's horror classic. So, what makes it work? Well, for one thing, the one liners (especially the "The good news" quote seen in the tagline. The acting is good for the large part, especially Atkins, who has a ball with the character he plays. The movie also has some (rather obvious) references to older B-Movies ("Plan 9 From Outer Space" for example) and noted directors, but it never hurts the movie. Director Fred Dekker went on to make The Monster Squad, which is on DVD. While that's great, it would be even better if this one was as well. Final Verdict: 9/10. A nearly perfect B-Movie classic that every horror fan should see. Tomorrows movie: Resident Evil: Extinction.

Comments which don't warrant a thread.
Gary Floyd replied to Giuseppe Zangara's topic in No Holds Barred
I agree. The reason I post there is to talk about movies and tv shows I love (or don't love), and always saw "look how much this will make" as rather pointless. Earlier this year, I was talking to this guy, and his mom calls him. Well, you can see the conversation is getting stranger, and when he gets off the phone, the conversation went like this Me: Who was that? Him: It was my mom. Me: What did she want? Him: She wanted to borrow some of the porno tapes I own. -
July starts tomorrow, and I've decided to do something new for this Blog for the month: 31 Days of the Dead. What's that? Well, in short, it's a review of a Zombie Movie each day. Here's the thing though: For the large part, I'm going to be avoiding the usual suspects, such as Romero, "Shaun of the Dead", Fulci, and the "Return of the Living Dead" series. Ok, you will get one "Resident Evil" movie reviewed. Why am I avoiding the "usual suspects"? Because, while I do love most of the usual suspects, I really can't say anything else about them that hasn't been said already. This is more for less talked about movies such as "Night of the Creeps", "The Dead Pit", "The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue", "Horror Rises from the Tomb", and others. Hope you like it, and remember, feedback and comments are always appreciated.

"YOU ARE VERY RUDE!" Awesome episode.

Slowdive-"When the Sun Hits"
-
Slowdive's Souvlaki deserve's more love. Perfect album in just about every way.
-
"Machine Girl"-see this movie now. It could be the "Story of Ricky" of this decade.
-
A friend of mine complained about this, so yeah. I tend to wait until they come on TV.
-
Saw it today. It's great, and could be one of my favorite movies of the year.
