Halloween 2006
Awesome, it's Halloween, that time of year when people knock on your door and you make an extra effort to pretend you don't hear the knocking.Years ago my dad got this knock at the door, he opened it to find a lad who'd merely got an extra large coat on with the hood up saying 'Trick or treat', my dad just laughed, told him to fuck off and closed the door. It was only the start of September to be fair.
I feel like I have to do something horror based tonight as that is the law. There's boundless going to be some spooky film on tv, have you noticed though that there are a lot of horror films on at Christmas as well? Strange.
I fancy getting one of those things that the bloke/s in the Scream films had, that gizmo to change your voice. With one of those I could pull 'hilarious' pranks on friends and family, the goal obviously being to cause someone to poo themselves with fright.
A year or two ago a friend called up and tried to do that weird rattle/gasp noise that the girl in the Ring films does. You know that 'auuuragghhkkk', well, he didn't do it that well and I thought it was someone having an asthma attack.
Actually im going to be very geeky now and tell you that I plan to read something by Junji Ito tonight as that guy really is shit your pants scary.
Oh, while we are on the whole Halloween/horror theme have you heard about these people that have passed out while watching Saw 3? Now I haven't seen the film but they must obviously have been a bunch of lightweights. Infact, due to the amount of supposedly-but-not-actually scary films that have had people pass out in them I can't help but think that some hollywood exec must bang a few people with nervous disorders into the theatre for extra publicity.
