The Changeling and Updates

I recommend this movie for Halloween. It's PG, has frights, good acting, good tension. Perfect for the entire family and will leave a few goosebumps if you aren't a stubborn or immature little a-hole who mocks anything A) old, B) supernatural, and C) bloodless frights. I live for gore, but this movie tickled my balls when I saw it years ago. Very good stuff from George C. Scott.

I'm gonna watch it later tonight, might review it for Halloween this week.

Might just crank up the DVD player and watch a whole, whole, whole bunch of stuff. Gritty and bleak and violently spooky. None of this torture porn for the sake of torture porn.

Might have to break out the compelling Audition again (sorta contradicting, but not with my take). Write my take on that film and you'll see why.

The screenplay is pretty much rolling right now. It's a first draft, and shit, but lordy is it starting to become fun.

On the poetry front, I'm about thirteen away from the 30::30 and have eighteen or so days to go.

Some good stuff, some bad stuff,
some rough stuff, some fun stuff,
some horrible stuff, some ugly stuff,
some pruning stuff, some violent stuff,
some romantic stuff, some vulgar stuff,
some religious stuff, some irreligious stuff,
some cinquain stuff, some straight narrative stuff,
some quatrain stuff, some tercet stuff,
some horror stuff, some dramatic stuff,
some comical stuff, some stuff that might have a chance,
and others that don't have a chance in this hell.


That's all my time. The woodpile calls. The chainsaw wants my back today.
