The Evil Dead Drinking Game

Me and my friend played it tonight. She drank cider and I drank beer. We watched the first Evil Dead movie and got almost through the second one...

The rules are very simple. You take a sip of alcohol when any of the following happens:

* Ash gets hurt
* Ted Raimi appears as a shemp (watch the commentaries and you'll know)
* the camera moves from the evil entity's point of view
* Ash says somethin korny (all the one-liners count, especially "workshed")
* The Necrocomicon is mentioned
* the mystical words are cited
* a character gets posessed
* Ash talks to the evil dead

Honestly, beer is enough when playing this drinking game. Even at the very beginning of the first movie you have to drink quite a lot.

I think I better get some sleep now so I can watch the end of the second movie and Army Of Darkness. I just hope my friend is up to it. No drinking game this time! (but we're going to do a Romero drinking game some day)

And guess how many misspelled words I corrected while writing this.

Weird Dreams Are Made Of This...?

My sister (soon 13yrs) had a dream about my dog. That's not weird, but what happened in that dream was weird. Helka was growing tomatos and wore blue overalls and a hat. My sister drew a picture of it.

Of course my sister isn't the only one to see dreams about my dog. My mom once had a dream that Helka wore brown pants. And I saw a dream that she rode a small motorbike but could not turn it. So I had a rope attached to the bike and when she reached the end of the rope, I went to turn her and the bike around. Weird...

Review: Cannibal Holocaust (1980)

Director: Ruggero Deodato
Starring: Robert Kerman, Francesca Giardi, Perry Pirkanen, Gabriel Yorke

Cult classic movie about a documentary film crew that disappears into the South America jungles while searching for cannibal tribes, and the search party sent after them.

The reason why this film has become so "must see" is simple: violence and sex. Since Cannibal Holocaust was made in 1980, with pretty low budget, the 70's adult movie influences are very visible. Sometimes it looks like a snuff film. And since the animal rights movements were nothing like today, the animal killings are real.

Apparently the movie was banned in over 50 countries. But what I really admire about this film is that it is almost like a documentary. The way it's shot and how realistic it is.

Very much a must see if only you have the stomach.

These Two Look Oddly Alike... Part 5

Camilla Parker Bowles and AC/DC bass player Cliff Williams.

Stuff On TV etc.

It's been a while since my last blog entry. So once again this is one of those ramblings on everything.

I watched The Hunt For The Red October and I thought it was an alright film with Sean Connery's funny fake Russian-but-still-Scottish accent. Most shocking thing about this movie was how young all the actors were (well, apart from Connery who has pretty much looked the same for at least three decades). Especially Tim Curry and Alec Baldwin (the best of the Baldwins).


See how young he is?!

Alarming news from the TV world. One channel is going to show Baywatch for the whole summer! They already showed a very disturbing ad where Hasselhoff takes off his pants and underneath he has the red trunks. And lots of hair... *brrr*

Yesterday I took my dog for a walk. There's nothing unusual about that, but I asked my little sister to come with me. She was against the idea until I bribed her. It cost me 1€ and the rest of my divine white chocolate (not much, maybe three pieces) to get her to agree. And so we walked for two hours. Then I got my sister to agree that she would go for a similar walk with me once a week. But we'll see if she will keep that promise.

As a comic relief, here's a photo of my dog looking stupid. Maybe it's because I have used too much Cheerios to train her and now she thinks nothing but round things...


She's looking at a Cheerio in this pic...
