Terror In The Woods: Tonight

Set your wood-paneled VCRs for this one.
Just watched the teaser on Xfinity and I think I might be hooked.
Good acting...no silly narration...more in the style of Paranormal Witness.

And after you watch the clip below...click into the comments of this entry for what they see on the floor...it's not even paranormal...and it's terrifying.



Super Cool Low-Cost Concept

Such a great idea...

Now Playing: Resident Evil, The Final Chapter

The "final" Resident Evil film turned out to be our favorite of the series.  I hadn't seen nor heard any reviews of this film and it seemed to die a quick death here in the States (not in China), but it was really enjoyable and very well made.  Great action and pacing, and a lot of heart.  And a solid story.

How Do You Tell Your Neighbors That Their Halloween Decorations Are Too Scary?

A Haunting

This long-running series is on the TV a lot, but I have to admit I'm not sure why.  It's like watching a local theater production of a haunted house story, with cardboard acting, terrible stage effects and bad creature prosthetics, and a weird narration by an unseen voice.


Mr. Potato Head...Is Dead

Sentinelcrow

I converted an old Pumpkin Sentinel into a scarecrow for a dear friend and coworker (for always putting up with my ranting nonsense)...
It's at the end of her long driveway, by a country road in the woods.
