Zombies.

Lately I've had horror on the brain. I've been wanting to write a story that I may adapt into a script. I've been listening to Psychobilly/Horrobilly music (which I must say, Is a fan-fucking-tastic genre of music!). I had a random dream about zombies the other night, which came after the dream about Coldplay playing at the college orientation :s which I thought was more random.
All this draws me to one conclusion: I love Horror.
The only problem is finding decent horror movies. I watched the new Friday the 13th movie, and it was lammme, White Noise was stupid, The Grudge was also stupid, Boogeyman was ok...could have been better, but all-in-all I've been very disappointed in the most recent Horror flicks I've seen. However! Diary of the Dead was really good, not really that scary, but good non the less.

So. I've decided that I'm going to go on a hunt in order to find movies that contain actual HORROR. It will a battle I'm sure but I will go to the bowels of the 5.99 movie bin if need be and I will not give up till I find real horror!
So far the only movie I can recommend that I actually found kinda scary was The Exorcist. Some will say it's lame, or corny, but personally if you really think about the idea of possession being real, and a story like that actually happening (which you never know) it gives the film a whole new respect. Also, the story line is pretty solid. Even though how she got possessed in the first place is a little lost (she was playing with a Ouija board which can, according to some in the paranormal business, be dangerous. It can put you in contact with demons and such, and has been said to lead to possession). I find the idea of trying to defeat something that has no form, no visual weakness, something that psychological weapons instead of physical ones to be terrifying. How do you go about defeating something like that?

Going Where?

So. August is almost here which tells me summer will be coming to a close sooner than later. There are many things I still wanna do! Such as getting drunk around a camp fire on a starry night with friends. I also wanna finish up a few more fun sewing projects before I don't have time to.
I'm rather upset of how little money I'm going to make this summer. I mean it's sort of a crucial thing when going to college, but my parents are being good about it. It just means I'm gonna have to be a little more thrifty is all.
I'm sort of worried about where this new school year will lead me. I mean it's second year and I have to start figuring out where my ambitions are in the media industry. It's odd, I hate the media because it lies and sensationalizes yet I'm going into it. Mostly because I wanna show people the truth I think. Do something that brings change, or can inform. (not the news though, boring). I wanna be creative.
I'm actually living in a house this year with four other girls. I hope we all get along, and I'm sure if any problems do occur we can sort them out. I do look forward to fun themed nights or craziness. My room in the house is kinda small, but really, who cares? I mean I think I have pretty rad decorating skills. I just have to make the room cozy!
Oh, so I went to see Green Day in concert. All I can say is they are amazing!!!! I really want to go again. Billie Joe is amazing on stage. I got all teary eyed....I was just really excited!
