Krampus, Coming to Theatres Soon

Looking forward to Dec. 4, 2015! Thank you Pumpkin Rot, for sharing this link to the official trailer for Krampus, Michael Dougherty's new movie (with an exceptional cast, I might add) about the notorious Christmas devil. For more information on the ghoul, here's a neat National Geographic article I found that breaks it down.

Day of the Dead (Dias De Los Muertos)

     I've been super inspired by the amazing Day of the Dead make-up I've been seeing this season online and face-to-face! Thought I'd post a few pics that really stood out to me; kind of what I think I'd attempt to do if I had the chance... maybe next year! ;)

Happy 4th!

Happy Fourth of July everyone! 

Enjoy fireworks and hot dogs- Oh, and two great marathons that will be on TV today! 

The Walking Dead on AMC... 

...and The Twilight Zone on Syfy!

 This is how a haunter celebrates their independence! ;)

Very fun, quite a few repeats, but still some new goodies like a B-movie theme, fun make-up tutorials, and yummy looking recipes!

Happy Mother's Day...

April Fooling

So today I decided that I would fully take advantage of April Fool's Day after coming up with an idea for a very good prank. I have never really done an amazing April Fools Day joke before but my friend and I knew that the idea we had for a prank had to be put into action. I thought it would be absolutely ridiculous if we created a fake Facebook profile for a guy that does not exist (and who happens to be the lamest person ever, and a mother's worst nightmare) and to say that I am "in a relationship" with him, just to see what happens. No one caught on. They all believed I was dating this complete weirdo. I finally spilled the beans... what fools.

Happy New Year!

Apple cider anyone?

A Barely Merry Christmas

Sorry I've been ridiculously busy lately and haven't done any blog posts in a while, but it's mainly because I was busy making a new movie. For my Acting for Camera class my group and I decided to make a holiday themed film and we ended up with this, A Barely Merry Christmas. Enjoy!

Will definitely be blogging about the amazing gifts I received this year; my friends and family know me too well :)

A Christmas Carol 2009

Just saw this film last night and it was much better than I expected. I figured that because it was a Disney film they would makes things seem a bit lighter, that Marley's ghost and the ghost of Christmas yet to come wouldn't be too scary. While watching the film, I realized that Disney did not end up censoring the creepy factors of Charles Dickens' classic tale, instead they celebrated them.

Seeing the film in 3-D is quite and experience: the animation is so detailed and the movements are more realistic than most animated films due to the performance capturing technique that was also used in Polar Express. This automatically made my friends and I feel like we were in the movie, as cliche as it sounds. As the film went on, however, this feeling only got more extreme as things became more frightening. Marley's visit, Ignorance & Want, The ghost of Christmas yet to come... before we knew it, we were all huddled together anticipating the moments where things literally jumped out of the screen.

I was personally glad that they kept this story so creepy and frightening, it really made me feel like I was Scrooge himself, the script was also as rich as Dickens' own words, which kept the story very original. I don't how everyone else feels when they go to this film expecting holiday cheer, especially the parents, but for me: I always love a thriller!
