So many days, so little blogs. It's strange, as much as I like to write, when it comes to writing about myself I absolutly stink at it. Still, it never stops me from giving a go at it. If I don't mention something you may be curious about, feel free to ask me. I'm fairly open and very honest.
I have mentioned before that I am a movie buff, though it is mainly horror and sci-fi that I like. I have well over 200 horror/sci-fi movies in my dvd collection. Mostly from 70's and earlier (including silent movies Nosferatu and Phantom of the Opera), but I do have more recent movies as well. Really though, I think many horror movies these days are terrible. Not in the good way either. They are basic cookie cutter blood 'n gore fests that don't really serve much of a purpose other than to get boobs shown and people eviserated. Not that there's anything wrong with that. =-) I'd just like a lil more story to go with it.
For someone with a sense of humor like I have, I'm not really a fan of comedies either. Yeah, they can make me laugh, but eh... So does the president. Action/ adventure is fine, but in the end I will always be a sci-fi/horror fan. Even if it's an older movie with cheesey effect and hokie dialogue. That's part of what made them great.
I've also found myself really getting into Japanese horror movies. They really seem to know how to get the suspense going. Their movies seem to be more on building the suspense with off screen happenings and work with shadows. It's very well done most of the time. The movies are best seen with subtitles and not dubbed. That can be a pain for some, but in this case it helps more than it hurts.
As far as Sci-Fi goes, the cornier the better. haha. I like a good sci-fi show as much as the next geek... erm... guy, but give me a corny movie with cheap effects and I'm a happy camper. Well, that a little more about me and my movie tastes. I'll be back again soon with a little more about myself. With any luck I won't be as lousy at it the next time. haha
As always, feel free to ask me about anything I haven't covered yet or would like to see me mention in a later blog. =-) I always do better when I'm asked about myself, than when I have to write about myself on my own. =-)
