Michael's Musings

Fear is like a clown's make-up, 
It can hide the true face of evil
Michael Shinafelt

With all the buzz surrounding Terrifier 3 I thought it was high time that I saw Terrifier. "Yes" back where this lunacy began.

Here's my quick take the gore is what it is, over the top which translates to hilarious! The reason for the horror series success rests squarely on the shoulders David Howard Thornton who plays Art The Clown. Art is a one of a kind, unique horror creation. Without him and Thornton's expert skills in portraying him these little indies would be nothing. Boo!

Happy Satan impregnates his bride season!

The incredibly beautiful thing about the arts is the absence of boundaries. That said, do you have the absence without the presence? - Jenny DiMartino

Hump Day & Chill

Mother Knows Best
Nicole Kidman

Being it's Halloween month and all there is plenty to chill about. In fact nothing is chillier than Nicole Kidman in The Others.

What makes The Others a great haunted house movie is even if you see the twist coming you are still invested in the movie.

This is due in no small part to Kidman's masterful performance. You believe her and her family are genuinely in peril, when, well they aren't really at all.

Along with the spot on atmosphere of the film The Others is a modern classic.

Thus let's Hump Day & Chill our day away with Nicole and company.

Nobody does it better!

Commitment

This bit of inspiration comes straight outta Instagram via Iman. If you don't know who she is Google her as I am not writing her bio for you.

She does these quote posts titled:  #ImanDaily  and they are all designed to help one forge a life path for the day, week or ever.

This one resonates with moi thus I decided to share it. 

You're welcome. That's all...

I Got A Rock...

Remember how Charlie Brown received a rock whilst trick or treating for his rather "holy" ghost costume which missed the mark by miles???

Well it's Halloween season and I am here to give you a rock. This rock is one that the pop culture collective deserves.

Hocus Pocus is not a good movie, who knows why it has reached the status it has. It's the equivalent of receiving rocks whilst trick or treating on Halloween.

Don't be a Charlie Brown, stop trying to make Hocus Pocus happen!!!

Check out how truly bad Hocus Pocus is on Rotten Tomatoes where it was awarded a mere 40% Fresh rating -

Current Mood

Helen Shivers
Sarah Michelle-Gellar

Woke up to a beautiful sunny day this October 12, 2024 here in Los Angeles, CA. It feels so full of possibility. 

Tis the season so guess what my Current Mood is? It's Helen Shivers in I Know What You Did Last Summer before the incident. "Yes" Helen Shivers is a mood, trust me...

You remember how full of ambition, hope and optimism she was before that fateful night destroyed all of that for her? Yeah, losing those qualities basically ruined her life.

So today we honor her initial spirit, by honoring her spirit (remember she's dead) 

Only 19 more days till Halloween!!!
