House of How Many Corpses?
So, one of the cooler things I got to do at the San Diego Comicon International this year, was attend the Rob Zombie's "Devil's Rejects" panel. Besides getting Zombie in a three dimensional setting, they also had the crazed hippy from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 there, along with the fat bald guy from Mr. Show. (The audience is now completely confused) Anyway, Zombie rambled on rather extensively about his new film, and then showed a very, very brief preview. I'm moderately hyped, although I can tell the new film will be more serious than its predecessor.
Speaking of which, watched "House of a 1000 Corpses" again the other night as part of my ongoing horror movie marathon. The film is a definitive hodgepodge, combining elements of both Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, with traditional 70s horror film motifs, with Music Videos, with Rob Zombie's unique voice. The result is a somewhat jumbled, yet surprisingly inspired mess, that only really captures its full on potential at the end when the enigmatic Dr. Satan is revealed. Hell, the few seconds we spend in the Good Doctor's Lab is worth the watch. Hopefully, Zombie can take the imagination that he invested in many of House's better sequences and use them to full effect in the "Devil's Rejects". Here's hoping.

BlogWAR Aerial Strike!!!
Some kid was watching Cartoon Network at 3ish AM in the waiting room.
Joe's gayer than Mahi, the kid with the ring of heart, and he's the gayest of the gayness that is Captain Planet. Cept for The Good Cap'n himself. That's Michael Jackson gay, and you ain't that bad CBald.
Roger that, pilot, let's get this damn bird outta here before he retaliates....thump thump thump thump.
In fact, this whole BW attack was gay. Talk about homo erectus. I'm not doin Blog War after not sleeping ever again. At least until I do it next time. Dirty hippies the lot of you.
Sweet, Sunday October 24th, the National Geographic channel is taking ME Inside the Secret Service. That's as hedero as you can get. But Joe's still gay as a little Indian kid with a ring of heart.
In fact, if the Ring of Heart was one of the L5R rings, it'd only be playable if your Stronghold was the Danger Cave:House of Joe. And that's damn gay. Almost Boolah Gay, and certainly at least Country's level of gay-jealousy gay.
Now, if only Sarah was out of diapers so she'd know what Captain Planet was...
Joe~
I will probably join you Friday when you watch your horror movie.
As for Blog Wars: whatever.
New plan....I think we're going to watch Team America Friday night. Pick you up at 5:30.
What happened to you naming your colums with Quick Review before everything?
