Last night I watched the movie Saw. It was so gross and disgusting but also very interesting. I guessed a lot of the things that were going to happen before they happened which made me feel smart. Erik held my hand through most of it because I was scared. Then Erik thought that maybe I was a racist when this conversation happened...
"I think Samuel L. Jackson is the killer"
"Brooke, Samuel L. Jackson isn't in this movie."
"He's not?"
"No, that's Danny Glover."
"Oh, well...I think Danny Glover is the killer."
But it was innocent, I always get certain actors mixed up. Like Dinero/Hoffman/Pacino/Hopkins that one is the most confusing for me. Or Basinger/Lane/Pfeiffer.
Anyway...this movie is not bad...I mean...it's TERRIBLE but it's not bad like the other horror movie I watched this weekend....
Steven King's "Christine". Oh man, this might be my new favorite movie. Is Steven King really so impressed with himself that he thinks he can scare anyone with anything? He's like, "Hm, Clowns...check...dead animals...check...I know! Cars! Haunted Cars!" Listen Steven, I'm scared of everything ok? Sometimes when I go to the bathroom in the middle of the night I close my eyes while I'm washing my hands because we all know things live in the bathroom mirror and pop out at you in the night. But there will never be a movie about haunted cars that scares me. Never. It was fun to watch though...especially when at the end the high school girl who of course lives because, as we all know, those skinny bitches never die, she looks at the demolished car and says, "I hate rock and roll." Love it.
Of course none of these movies can hold a torch to The Fortress which is phenomenal. (Handbag we need to consider this). This horror movie made me laugh my butt off. It starred some whispery guy who is trying to break out of an unfair prison and says things like, "I'd rather die trying to get out than rot in this place!" And it's the 1980's version of the future which always makes me laugh. Like, remember in Back to the Future 2 when MJF goes way into crazy 2015 and there are hover boards and stuff? Brilliant.
Final reviews of my horror movie-thon
Saw: Ew, but also, hmm.
Christine: My friend said, "Oh yeah, that movie is way better on acid"
The Fortress: Cinematic Gold

I LOVED Back to the Future 2!!! Especially the part where they put the tiny Pizza Hut (product placement!) pizza in the magic oven, and all you had to do was say "Level 4, please!" and 2 seconds later you had an extra large pipping-hot pizza!
I thought it was funny how extreme they made "the future" seem, even though it was just 20 years in the future. Yeah, like we were really going to be riding around in hover cars in just 20 years!
Dude, Steven King novels hardly ever translate well into film. They usually have high levels of CHEESE in the films. Pet Semetary sucked butt too even tho the book was pretty scarey. The best King novel to Film was definitely Misery. "Get Outta The Cockadoodie Car!"
