It has taken me SO very long to calculate the results of our last poll, "Which villain would win in an epic villain battle to the death?" The majority went with Jason, by 40%. Not my personal choice, but that's okay. He did come back to life almost a hundred times by now, so I've got to give the guy credit there.
Anyway, I'm going to post a new poll today, and I'm planning on leaving it up for much longer so people can get more time to vote. The new poll is going to sort of relate to this video I'm posting, in the sense that most scary movies have IDIOTS for victims. I guess that's what's so enjoyable about watching them...I mean, if I had a Baby Ruth for every time I cursed at a horror flick moron for doing the wrong thing, I would have type two diabetes. However, we can all agree that there are certain instinctive things we, as human beings, do that help us in terms of surviving. Each person has their own strengths and weaknesses, and to be honest a lot of the reason I watch horror films is so that I can be prepared in my own daily life, should I be attacked by a freaking psychopath. I mean, good theives watch bad ones get caught and learn from it, so the way I see it good survivors need to watch dumbasses bite the dust. It's for the same reason that I watch 1,000 Ways to Die.
Enough for my philosophical rambling...here's the poll question: "If you were sitting on your couch watching (insert T.V. show name here) alone in the late evening, and you heard someone in your house, what would be the FIRST thing you would do after you called 911?"
Okay, so let's talk. I know this seems like a no-brainer...but keep in mind the FIRST thing you'd do after calling 911, because let's face it, unless your phone is charging in the attic, that's anyone's first move if they have an IQ higher than 4. Really put yourself in that situation and think about it. If your answer is not listed as an option, please e-mail me or comment on my blog.
On to the next. I saw this funny video by HISHE, they make animated films on "how _______should have ended." I found one on Scream, and found it funny because they took a more pragmatic look at it, which as you well know is my horror movie philosophy.

I hope you've enjoyed the August reviews! September brings the start of a new year of teaching, so I'll try to keep you updated as much as I can!
