Films I've Bought... Recently

I've been finding some great deals on some great titles. I was in an F.Y.E the other night and found a bunch of used DVDs for great prices. I usually walk out of there with four or five films and spend about $20! I guess that's not too shabby of a deal, right? Tonight, before sitting my ass in a packed theatre to see "Insidious", I ventured over the Wal-mart and found some other gems for very low prices. Here is a list of films that I've bought within the last three weeks.

DAWN OF THE DEAD, DAY OF THE DEAD, CLERKS, FREEWAY, THE LAST DAYS OF FRANKIE THE FLY, THE WILD BUNCH, THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE, PUPPET MASTER 1 THROUGH 3, DEMONIC TOYS, DOLLMAN, DOLLMAN VS. DEMONIC TOYS, HELLRAISER, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, MALTESE FALCON.

I haven't upgraded to Blu-ray yet because I don't feel that there is anything wrong with DVD. Sure, Blu-ray might look sharper and much better than DVD, but I'm not sure I want all the grit taken out of some of these classics. Hell, if Blu-ray can make The Texas Chain Saw Massacre look like it was made yesterday, why the hell would I want to watch that? I dunno. I will purchase Blu-rays soon, but I'm not sure I'll ever stop collecting DVDs. I've got way too much money invested in them to just stop. Then again, you never know with me.

A Quick Word.

I'm going to be doing some blogs on the old Tales from the Crypt episodes. They won't be in order or anything, but I'm gonna try to do the best of the best from my personal favorite episode choices.

Keep on coming back to view more from us. You're always welcome to stop by and leave a comment if you like.

Some Films Worth Mentioning.

About two weeks ago I went home to Pennsylvania and visited with friends and family. On the first night, I stopped by my friend's video store. We chatted for a bit; just catching up, nothing more. I was shocked to see that he had Moon on sale for the cheap low price of 4.99. With wide eyes and a sense of fantastical excitement, I picked it up. Not a bad deal for a great film, huh?

That weekend also saw me walking around in Wal-Mart where I got to pick up (for only five bucks) Once Upon a Time in the West. Great western, and if you haven't seen it I suggest you do. Other than that I've been watching films like, City of the Living Dead and Werner Herzog's version of Nosferatu: The Vampyre. I enjoyed both films. Herzog's Nosferatu was astonishing. The atmosphere, lighting and Klinski's portrayal of the Count are a must see for any vampire fans.

Which leads me this next bitch. Whatever happened to vampires who sucked blood and not dick? It's beyond me, but for the past five or six years (and yes, I blame Anne Rice too!) there hasn't been any good Vampire flicks. Just goes to show where films are being taken. I'd say a negative direction. But hey, when all your fans are little kids salavating over Edward and Jacob, who am I too complain? Just a Vampire fan wanting something wicked for a change and less oriented with the sexy man-beasts taking off their shirts the entire film.

So, to the twatlight saga, Fuck YOU!

Introduction from Something's Lurking.

Hello, my name is Rob. I'm starting this blog to show appreciation for everything I love and for everything that inspires me. For the most part, my life consists of watching films, reading books, making movies, writing and sharing my personal thoughts with everyone. We all have opinions and should be encouraged to use them. This blog is supposed to be an inkling to everything I'm interested in. I will hold no boundaries to this blog and I'll write about almost anything.

So, in closing with this very brief introduction, I have to say this. If you're a fan of anything mentioned above - and then some - then look no further. You've come to the right spot.

Thanks and take care.
