Van Helsing

So I decided to watch Van Helsing last night.

I really like this movie, its fun. Its all the old school Universal Studios Monsters but re-booted a bit (minus the mummy). You have the werewolves (no wolfman per-say), count Dracula & The Frankenstein monster. Its constant action & the special effects are pretty cool. This is a good movie for a family to watch, the violence and gore are not over the top and the language is mild.

Super 8

While NOT a horror movie I was flipping through Amazon video and came across this. It had 2 names that interested me, J.J. Abrams and Steven Spielberg. The description said it was about area 51, unknown cargo a train etc. So sci-fi I said. Sci-fi is kind of Halloween-ish. So I figured I would watch this as my next Halloween movie. All I can say to you is to avoid this movie. I found it horrible, it was more about like a love story for these 12-year-old kids. I was NOT able to even relate to that, I’m too old (feels weird to say).

The Burbs

Ok, I have loved this movie since I was a kid and as a kid its scary for sure.

However, as an adult, I must say this is a comedy for sure, its still a great Halloween movie to watch, especially with the family. It’s a good old school humor/horror mash-up. Some good 80’s material. You can never go wrong with actors like Tom Hanks and Corey Feldman.

Stir of Echoes

I realize I’m a bit behind on my Halloween movies, I apologize for this.

So my movie for the other night was Stir of Echoes. What I like about this movie is it runs the gamut. You have ghosts, physicists, murder, mystery and more. I like the story and find it well executed. It’s not an uber scary movie either for those who don’t them hardcore and it’s a gore fest.

Return of the Living Dead 2

Ok, here we are. The first movie I decided to watch this Halloween season was Return of the Living Dead 2. Now based on the title I’m sure you can deduce there is a part 1, however, as a kid, I only remember seeing part 2. I did see part 1 more recently and I prefer part 2.

Love This Guy….

I thought this was worth posting. If you were to ask me who is my hero (not a good word) or my idol, someone I look up to then I would have to say this man. Vangelis. Vangelis’s music is what got me into making music, well kinda. I loved the music very much, and when I am really into something do I research, I want to know everything about that thing.
