Damn it, damn it, son of a bitch!
As I mentioned earlier, I've had some computer problems as of late, and this necessitated the purchase of a brand new rig. The span of time that has passed between the computer bed-shitting, the purchase of the new rig, and the as-of-yet still-ongoing battle to get my internet account switched over to the new computer has made completing this month's Halloween celebration nigh impossible at this juncture.
In the interest of keeping to the schedule of events, I had some periodic access to this forum from work ... that is, until the state IT department began to crack down on all these rogue laptops that are floating around. Seems they had forgotten to remotely equip the laptops with the appropriate lockouts and filters that would promote productivity and limit any internet slacking off. I have been checking Blogger every day since last week or so for access, and honestly, I don't know how I got on today, but while I have the access, I figured I'd post.
That only left the local library for online access to a reliable degree, and I get off work at 5, and they close at 6. Bah!
My computer problems should be worked out by the end of the week, whereupon I'll add the last few vestiges of the Halloween project for this year. I swear, last year it was a family crisis, this year computer problems. There seems to be the workings of a Halloween curse here on Science Gone Mad.
Anyway, while I have the access, I did want to post up the rest of the Horror Movie daily marathon I've been subjecting myself to; not only am I including the films I've watched since the last review was posted, but I'm also going to list the films that I've yet to check out to round out the month.
Oct. 18: Descent (2005)
Oct. 19: Deadly Spawn (1983)
Oct. 20: Planet of the Vampires (1965)
Oct. 21: Shriek of the Mutilated (1974)
Oct. 22: Black Sheep (2006)
Oct. 23: The Orphanage (2007)
Oct. 24: Frightmare (1974)
Oct. 25: Zombies of Mora Tau (1957)
Oct. 26: Host (2006)
Oct. 27: Hatchet (2006)
Oct. 28: Candyman (1992)
Oct. 29: I Bury the Living (1958)
Oct. 30: Creeping Flesh (1972)
Oct. 31: *Double Feature: Suspiria (1977)/ Wizard of Gore (1970)
I have a couple of things to upload and add, and I should be able to do that from the lab this weekend, so be on the lookout for that.
And again, I hate unfinished projects, and being that I love the Halloween thing as much as I do, it pains me greatly to call this one short, and for the second year in a row, too. But all is not lost, as I have taken up some advice and I'm considering & outlining a film review/reference guild. It's a passing interest for right now, but hell, even if I just put it publish it myself and put it up on Amazon as print-on-demand, it might be a fun project to put together. We'll see what happens, and here will be where the news breaks.
