Introduction...

Here's a little about my(fake4444) take on movies and horror movies specifically. I have a rather large appreciation for almost all movies no matter how poor or excellent they are. I have great respect for Academy award winning movies and even some lesser known foreign films. I hope to be able to bring more of an analytical critique to some of these horror movies. Hopefully watching some of these horror films will give me a new personal interest in the horror genre.

From the few horrors I've watched and recall I love Hitchcock movies for their plot twists and psychological interests which can easily win anyone over. In certain major cities they have late night Saturday movies such as Svengoolie which was full of some horror movies which i had no idea existed including Shrunken Heads and Plan 9 from Outer Space.

I'll admit right away I am nervous about watching some of these because I can not stand horrible acting and terrible plots; however, I can't wait to indulge in this crap-fest of movies and get a good laugh out of watching a few of these. Seriously, I must be sick for laughing at most parts of Final Destination and definitely rooting for Jason and Freddy to punish those teenagers. Laughing at movies is good though especially when intentional such as Robert Rodriguez's contribution of Planet Terror to the 2007 two part thriller Grindhouse which shocked me when it ended up on Roeper's "Best Movies of 2007 so far."

After seeing Grindhouse in theatres i really hope i get more chances to experience these films in theatres. I really hope this blog inspires me to fall in love with horror movies. I also invite and thank any readers who are or never were interested in horror movies to join in and experiment this along with me.
