Having technical difficulties such may fall behind on updates for a few days,or I may keep my posts Spartan for now .
First up was a Disney Channel original I never saw before. It's basically a kid's version of Drop Dead Fred with some Beetlejuice. I didn't dig Drop Dead Fred and I have the same problem here. The imaginary friend is just way too annoying to be endearing. I constantly wanted them off the screen. Apparently, when this aired a lot of kids actually got scared? Seemed no worse than many episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark to me. I did like the designs of the other world, budget permitting.
Friday Part 8 is really Jason Takes a Boat for most of it. I have a soft spot for some of the kills and gags when he finally does reach the city, though. Also, Kelly Hu was one of the boat victims. The idea that Jason can teleport when you're not looking gets a lot of credence in this one. I'm gonna try to do a Vorhees movie every Friday.
Anyway, I miss the gritty, rundown cesspool New York of 70s and 80s movies. When it was basically Gotham City. I wouldn't want this live there, but it was a great setting for all kinds of stories.
A shorter edit of Murnau's classic Nosferatu, with brief intro by David Carradine and the soundtrack replaced by Type O Negative songs. Some of the selections fit well, others not really. Worth checking out if you like this band,which I do. At worst it's just series of music videos.
