Intermittent episodes of "Parks And Rec."  I really should get some screencaps, considering how many of these actors are in movies and I like to draw my ideas out, I SHOULD be able to draw them.

A few of the P&R threads have tons of kick ass screencaps posted.

Gonna take my own.  And what luck, the first episode I picked is the one that introduces Rob Lowe and Adam Scott, I literally couldn't have picked a better choice. 

I also forgot Rob Lowe's character was named Chris, which is weird because I should remember THAT.

On top of that, I ALSO forgot that Natalie Morales was on the show... I feel like they wanted her to be a recurring character but she wound up having a different gig.

Godzilla (2014)



Let me give some perspective. I cannot stomach the Japanese view of Godzilla. I find them silly, childish and jaw dropping in trying to pass off a man in a rubber suit. Let’s not even talk about all the iterations of various enemies of Godzilla. I kinda liked Roland Emmerich’s version. Kinda, it still had some faults. This was dull and unimaginative. I was really hanging my hat it bringing something new. The director was a fan or watched every Japanese version of Godzilla and then created a paint-by-numbers script. You don’t see Godzilla for an hour into the movie. Godzilla’s enemy gets way more screen time. To me… it was just an Americanized version of the Japanese Godzilla. Minus the man in rubber suit. But still, I thought Godzilla looked so wrong. It had a tiny little head. Just so weird. Nemisis was a direct rip-ff from Cloverfield. While the CGI was good, it still was some monsters crashing all over buildings, just like in the Japanese versions. It was almost comical. So why does Pacific Rim look and feel so different? I'll have to think about that.

There is absolutely nothing in Godzilla that allowed me to like it. I can’t recommend this.

I had no desire to see this one at all. Your review just confirmed what I already suspected.

There was a video online that was just all eight minutes of the movie that Godzilla is in.  That was fine.

Omnivores (Fangoria)



A Spanish horror film that is hard to watch, but you must like a train wreck.

The subject matter is very disturbing and the way it's presented in the movie is intriguing. In particular, the editing.

In a nutshell, a chef is asked to attend a new fad of dining where it's invite only, in a secret place, different each time. Once he's in, he asked to write about the experience. It's not long before he finds out some of its unique, unsavory side. The customers are there for the human flesh. Where it gets interesting, early on, the editing cuts in and out of the dark side of the operations of capturing people and preparing them, contrasting that telling the story of a people going to what is thought, basic dining. The movie is graphic and disturbing in content, but it had me hooked. It's not simply straight horror, there is a full circle story here, that gets complicated. What would you do?

I thought the ending copped out and they could have done better, but overall, it's an amazing kind of horror. Mental.

Blood Lake: Attack of the Killer Lampreys (Netflix)

TMZ Reacts to "Blood Lake: Attack Of The Killer Lampreys"
This TMZ review video is just as good as any trailer out there.



Wow, and I thought Sharknado was a perfect storm. Blood Lake is Sharknado’s little mentally challenged brother. Everything, and I mean everything in Blood Lake is Z-movie material. I can’t tell if it’s brilliantly developed that way, or like all other movies, they did what they could with their budget, seriously attempting a horror movie.

But I would say, just about every 5 minutes, you will yell out WTF. None of it makes sense. The acting appears to be a bunch of amateurs, despite Shannen Doherty (who looks like she’s been rode hard) and Christopher Lloyd. The editing is just classicly bad. The direction worse and the story is over the top. The special effects… well, guess what… they suck. I’m not going to get into details, but only say, if you liked Sharknado, Blood Lake will slip in nicely to an evening of jaw dropping illogical entertainment.
