Horror's Not Dead

"Can't even shout, Can't even cry, the Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, Knocking on doors, They need to take seven and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, Can't say a word, You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard."
-- Hush, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"

    Killing dogs upsets me too much. I cannot see Joshua.

    Also…check out this (http://www.aintitcool.com/node/32868) interview with your fav director. I just can’t believe how clueless he is. I didn’t go to film school, but I imagine the most annoying people there are exactly like Eli Roth. And yes, he will ruin Cell.

    I just read that article where he compares Hostel to Kill Bill. I literally want to punch him in the stomach now.

    I never, ever, understood why people hate seeing dogs bite it. If it isn’t real, what is the difference?

    Then again, I think it is utterly hilarious when a Magnum is pointed in a baby’s face, so my world view is a bit skewed.

    I think it’s cause puppies and dogs are cute, and babies…really…aren’t.

    Not that it really bothers me.
