Daydream Believer

I just read where John Stewart, the writer of this number 1 song by the Monkees, just passed away. Boy, does that song bring back memories. When I was a young teenager, it was my favorite song. I used to collect Monkee cards which were just like baseball cards with bubble gum. My friends and I would get up early and go to school an hour before it started just so we could walk way out of the way to a 7-11 in order to get some of the cards.

Halloween the movie

Movies have gotten scarier and scarier. I used to think they were scary when I was a kid, but the special effects of today's movies are of no comparison. However, I still remember one movie that my cousins and I went to see when we were young in the early 60's. It scared us to where we couldn't sleep for days. The movie was called "Horrors of the Black Museum." It was a story about a series of gruesome murders that took place in England. It told of a Scotland Yard detective's quest to find the killer and a crime story writer who was writing about the murders. You probably already guessed that it was the writer committing the murders. The murders were very memorable, especially one scene where a lady looks into a pair of binoculars when spikes pop out and go through her eyes killing her. This happened within the first couple of minutes of the movie. Every murder was totally unexpected and absolutely scared us out of our wits. In fact, we didn't make it through the whole movie! There have been several scary movies that have come out lately. And I'm sure with Rob Zombie directing the remake of Halloween the movie, which is coming out August 31st, there will not be any disappointments in the area of absolute fright. His natural love of the horror genre and his ability to keep people wondering what could possibly happen next will make this movie one that horror movie lovers will have to see. In the following trailer you can see how Rob has taken the classic horror movie and has given it his own special effects and frights. It looks like Halloween the movie will be a movie that will keep me from being able to sleep for days! How about you?

Another thing to drive you insane!

Subliminal ads a thing of the past? Maybe not. Check out this YouTube video showing a McDonald's one frame ad in the middle of a Iron Chef show. Was it intentional or a mistake? You may have to watch it a few times to actually see the ad. I watched it four times. Two times I saw it and two times I didn't. I hope it was a mistake.
