Top 21 Horror Movies of 2008?

Posted by MrHappyGoLucky in Cinephile | 12.30.2008 - 02:08

I recently viewed 3 lists which compiled the top 10 horror movies of 2008.

Bloody Disgusting
Film School Rejects
Suvudu

For the record, I’ve never heard of Suvudu, but found it while trying to find the Film School Rejects article. It seems to be a decent site, so I’ll trust the opinions listed there.

I’ve compiled the three lists into one list of 21 movies. The number after the movie title is the number of lists it appeared on. If a number doesn’t follow the movie, that movie appeared on only one list. Movies are rated by the number of lists they appeared on first and their IMDB rating second. You wouldn’t believe how much spare time I have.

I have The Orphanage and Cloverfield already, so I’ll probably watch those first. I would love to say that I would start at the top of the list and work my way down, but I’ve done this enough to know that I’ll end up watching them in the order they become available. Also, wouldn’t it suck to start with the best of the best and work my way down to the worst of the best?

  1. Let the Right One In (3)
  2. Splinter (3)
  3. The Strangers (3)
  4. Inside (2)
  5. The Midnight Meat Train (2)
  6. The Ruins (2)
  7. The Orphanage
  8. Cloverfield
  9. Red
  10. Transsiberian
  11. Stuck
  12. Repo! The Genetic Opera
  13. Funny Games
  14. The Signal
  15. Quarantine
  16. Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer
  17. Recycle
  18. Doomsday
  19. Teeth
  20. Baby Blues
  21. Seed (Warning: Directed by Uwe Boll)

Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are

“Worst case scenario is that someone with evil intent seizes control of them. They’ve proven their minds can be taken over by empty rhetoric.”

“So if someone were to come up with a catch phrase as simple and vague as, “yes we can”?”

“Oh, awful, they would have an entire army of extremely energetic, insufferably annoying, mindless pawns at their command.”

10,000 pot smokers stage protest, smoke weed

Posted by MrHappyGoLucky in Balderdash | 04.23.2008 - 12:01

Article here.

How’s your war on drugs coming along, anyway, DEA? The sun is shining, and if you’d pull your heads out, you’d see it. Pot is here, lots of it available…
Where did these pot-heads get their stuff, it surely didn’t come out of a couple of bags, and there was apparently enough to go around to get some 10,000 heads high. How many more smoke-outs were held on April 20th, the annual, internationally recognized celebration of marijuana? How many tons of pot went puff?


Cigarettes… Sweet Cigarettes

Posted by MrHappyGoLucky in Balderdash | 04.22.2008 - 15:48

So, I’ve stopped smoking.

Basically, I got to work, exited my car, walked down two flights of stairs, got to the front door of the office and realized I had forgotten my bag in the car. By the time I got back to the car, I was pretty damned winded. That’s just not acceptable. So I finished smoking all of my cigarettes except for one, bummed two from a coworker, and then smoked the last one I had.

There’s a reason for that. It’s very important to acknowledge and enjoy the (hopefully) last cigarette you’ll have. At least it is if you’re using my method.

We’ll see how this goes, but cigarettes are tricky. They’re more than just an addiction, they’re something to do to fill in all the little meaningless gaps in the day. It’s really easy to say, “Well, one wouldn’t hurt.” Which is, of course, insane. It’s not like you would say, “Well, just one more injection of sweet, sweet heroin won’t hurt.”

In fact, you would say that if you were a heroin addict, otherwise we could just eliminate the word “relapse” from our dictionaries. Crazy addictions.

I am definitely irritable. Blah, I’ve got stuff to go do… God damn it.

If you work in an office environment and you listen to your music without headphones on, well, you are just the worst kind of person.
