"The Last Exorcism"

I don't get to go to the movies alot, having a disabled son means lots of quality time at home, but every now and then I will get my mom to come hang out with Jacob and I will find someone to catch a movie with me. Last night me, the Litter Brother and our cousin headed out to see what all the fuss was about the new horror flick "The Last Exorcism." I have several things to say about this movie: when it first started out I had my doubts and was complaining to the family, "this is shit, we spent our hard earned money on shit," but I took back that statement about 30 minutes in. It was not shit, far from it, it had its surprises where I jumped a little, hard to do to me, and I was really shocked at the ending. Didn't see it coming, didn't see it coming at all! My biggest gripe was that as soon as it was over I threw up in the parking lot. Naw, it wasn't too gory, it had all that camera movement of the new documentary style movies and it totally screwed up my vertigo. It was worth the time and the money and I was glad I went, sick stomach and all. Here is something about it I found on the web:

What's the Story?

Evangelical minister Marcus Cotton, who performed religious rites he did not believe in for years, is about to quit the business. But before he does, he agrees to let a documentary crew film his last exorcism. Things don't go as planned.

Why Go See It?

1. If you liked the cinema-verite style of horror as seen in "The Blair Witch Project" and "Paranormal Activity," you'll like this.

2. It's produced by Eli Roth, who directed "Cabin Fever" and "Hostel." Expect something whip-smart and completely terrifying.

3. August is seriously hot. What better way than a horror flick to get some well needed chills?

Good Bye...

Good bye freaking hot ass August!!! Come on Fall!!

Candy Buffet

I have been reading a thread on Halloween Forum about having a candy buffet. I have a very old buffet in my dining room that I would love to serve such a wonderful idea off of. I plan to try and find odd shaped jars, strange bowls and anything that is fitting the holiday to keep my treats in.


This was to be a surprise for Damon when he comes to visit and help with the haunt but in case he reads this I am letting the cat out of the bag now.

What types of candy should I use? What would look festive in old jars trimmed in black lace? Hmmm....

Darius in Wonderland

This one is for you Litter Brother, I appreciate greatly that you have promised to be my Dark Evil Rabbit this year, but if things go according to how they usually go when you volunteer you will look just like this fella. Stoned and wielding a knife is NOT how you need to portray him, ok?!?

From Crystal

My stepdaughter made this for me, I loved it! We are all getting ready for the big night which will be Sat. October 30, 2010. I hope to post my plans on here later, maybe there might be someone looking around that could get an idea or two.

Good Read

Just finishing up an excellent read by Danielle Trussoni called "Angelology." I was not so sure I would enjoy this book when a friend of mine encouraged me to read it. My readings tend to be rather dark, not angelic, so I thought...I forgot all about the dark angels!! Very good read, I recommend it highly.

"The angelologists examined the body. It was intact, without decay, the skin as smooth as white as parchment. The lifeless aquamarine eyes gazed heavenward. Pale curls fell against a high forehead and scuptural shoulders, forming a halo of golden hair. Even the robes--the cloth woven of a white shimmering metallic material that none of them could identify exactly--remained pristine, as if the creature had died in a hospital room in Paris and not a cavern deep below the earth." Then all hell breaks loose...very interesting and disquieting read, enjoy.

The Coolness of Cats vs Vampires

Wish I could remember where I found this to give credit, I just hooted out loud when I read it. I could just see some smart ass cat thinking this (cause we all know by their snide looks cats DO think!)
