One of my all time favorite movies is Jurassic Park. It is one of the only movies I ever had seen that didn't make the dinosaurs look like ridiculous puppets or something. Plus I am really interested in dinosaurs. I really like the book too. It makes you wonder if that is actually possible. I also like this movie because it doesn't make the dinosaurs look stupid. My favorite part is when the raptor opens the door. Like the really old movies where the T-Rex's tail was dragging the ground.

Of the three movies, my favorite is the first one. However, the third one is good too. I think the third one is better than the second one. There is supposed to be a fourth Jurassic Park, too. I think the script is still being written. I must admit I am very curious as to how they are going to work this one. What is going to be the angle? Will there be any new dinosaurs in it?

The Entity, one of the best ghost movies and books ever. For the record, I believe in ghosts. I actually had seen the Entity several times before I read it. You know they always leave stuff out. It is actually based on true events.

For a movie, that was made in 1981 the special effects were very good. If you don't know what the movie is about, it is about a woman who repeated gets raped and molested by an entity. It is not a movie for children. The only thing that bothers me about the movie is that she keeps going back to that psychiatrist even after her friend experiences the entity. Personally, it would piss me off for someone to tell me I am crazy for getting slapped around by a ghost.

I just found out that there is going to be a remake of The Entity. That is so cool. Usually, I am not so fond of remakes but hopefully they can make it even better than the first one. The special effects will be awesome. As far as I can find out they haven't yet made it. I think they are casting or in the process of writing the script.

I am so mad. I was cleaning the other day and rearranged my videos and I can't find my dvd of Rose Red. I really like that movie. It doesn't really have any true scary movies in it but I like the variety of things in the film.

One of my favorite character's is Annie. I like the way the movie's ending is centered around her. I also like how she has psychic powers. One part that I think is strange is how at the end the Ellen and her maid look sort of like vampires. What was with that? I did enjoy the fact that the house was alive. Over all this is one of my favorite haunted house movies. That house was bad.

Happy Thanksgiving. No movie talk today. The only horror I am thinking about today is the mountain of dishes I have to do later. I love the family get together but I could really use a maid to clean up afterward. Hope all of you have a Happy Holiday. Now I have to get back to cooking. Don't want to send anyone to the hospital for food poisoning. Just joking, I am a good cook. Got to go cut potatoes. Until tomorrow.

Today I want to talk about Journey to the Center of the Earth. The new one with Brendan Fraser. I actually saw it when it first came out. I must admit that it disappointed me. I actually like the older version better.

I thought that the movie needed more scenes in the center of the earth. Was it just me or did the majority of the movie happen getting to the center? It would have been really cool if the movie had more scenes with dinosaurs or other creatures that lived down there. I will admit that I really like the visual effects. It is an okay movie but I would not buy it to own.

Slasher movies, love them. A lot of them are very easy to make fun of though. One of my favorite slasher series is Friday the 13th. It really isn't scary at least to me. I do love that music that comes on when Jason is about to kill someone though.

One thing that I don't really get is how Jason became a grown man. He died when he was thirteen. In the first one the mother is the one that killed for revenge. I do believe one where his relatives are in they tried to explain it. Apparently, it was some evil force that possessed Jason. If you ask me that only confused matters though.

One of the most annoying things about slasher movies is that there are almost always woman in the woods in high heels. Come on!! Who wears high heels in the woods? The character deserves to die because they are so stupid. Personally, I would yank those things off and sprint to the next state, thank you. No crawling backwards on my butt!

Some times I notice very strange things in horror movies. My friends say that it is because I am a freak. Let me give you an example of the strange things I notice.

The first time I ever watched Jeepers Creepers 2, I notice that the creeper for the lack of a name for the monster has really nice eyes. I am talking about after he loses his head the first time. When he decapitates that boy and then they show his face his eyes are a very beautiful blue. If you have not noticed you might want to pay attention the next time you watch that movie.

When I commented it on his eyes, my sister told me that only a freak like me would notice that. I wasn't bored or anything. That movie is one of my favorites. Unlike a lot of sequels I think it is better than the first one.

Today I want to talk about vampire movies. I am talking about the ones where the vamp is being hunted by some human. These movies bug the heck out of me. You know I love horror movies but come on. The vampire usually gets killed by the human.

If you think about it this is really stupid. The vampire is usually centuries old and the human maybe in his or her forties. The vampire is supposed to be stronger but that doesn't seem to matter. What did the vampire start out stupid as dirt and work his way up to just dumb as dirt? I know movies aren't real but they can at least make sense. I still watch these types of movies but I always root for the vampire. Besides the supposed hero is always annoying and one of those you root for to get killed.

Hello everyone. On this blog I will be discussing what I think of horror movies, books I read, and just generally my opinion on some of the monsters. Sometimes I will even discuss scifi movies.

I have always been a big fan of horror movies. My friends call me a freak because I am not scared by most movies. To be honest, the last movie that really scared me was the original Exorcist. I am talking about nightmares, holding your bible scared. That was when I was ten or twelve though. I think it was when I was ten. Technically I was not supposed to watch it but I stayed up late without my parents knowing it.

Occasionally movies today will make me jump. That does not happen very often though. Usually I just settle for making fun of my friends and family when they jump or scream. Even if the scary movie doesn't scare me I enjoy watching it.
