    Ok, this horror movie I'm watching is very odd...they've added an extra twist to the Zombie/infected genre of films...they've added an excorist element to it....

    a demonic element to the infected...very interesting...this is a good movie...very realistic...all done through first camera type presentation...like Blair witch or Paranormal....
    I promise when movies over I'll give ya the title...but in order to get it now I'd have to stop movie, and go through like 10 preview movies again...

    Ok, as promised I have name of move...it's titled 'Rec'...part two...

    Heck, I never knew there was a part one...

    Very unique movie...it has elements of Dawn of the dead...in the beggining how it was a police/military operation....

    Has elements of 28 days later, and 'I am Legend'...as well as throw in a demon twist...

    Also has elements of Blair Witch...done kind of like a docu-drama.

    There's no dumb back ground music, so the whole time it feels 'real'...with all camera angles coming from various first person characters....

    I definatly recommend his film...and even though I think it's done is French or Spanish (Spain)...the acting or lack of, is so good that you really don't need the sub titles...you just know, feel, what's going on, the suspense cause emotions are universal...

    Anyhow...you can get it at Red box...enjoy...

    Sad thing is sometimes I think I'd rather take my chances in a apartment building infested with rabies infected demonic zombies, than the economic complexities or structures man has implamented...

    Sometimes real life plays out like one long horror movie...with no commercial break...

    Hello everyone...hope all are well...

    I've gotta make some major decision here soon...(what's new about that)...

    Anyhow...I'm not really gonna talk about my other opportunity here...just doesn't feel right...
    Sometimes I don't understand the mindset of those on here, as little as they don't think they understand mine...although they do...they just let gossip, visual images, prevent them from it...

    Deep down inside they know I'd make the best friend they ever had...but most are to weak to allow that...

    Oh well....

    Stupid personal hang ups, everyone has them...

    Regardless I trek on...as we all do...

    On a different tip...sometimes a new enviornment can stimulate new life in you, new spark, a new fight, new challenges...

    Enviornment plays such an important role our lives...
    Sometimes firmiluar, overly comfortable enviornments, can hinder growth and opportunity...

    Sometimes you have to leap out, to create new opportunity for yourself...

    [​IMG]

    People like Bill Gates did it, people like Steve Jobs did it too...and many others...

    It's risky and scary...but although it might not feel like it, it can be very risky and detramental to keep doing the same thing over also...

    You wait a billion years to be born...or longer...have a few short years on this earth...why not make the most of the 'talend' god gives you...intead of burying it...(or coins, in reference to the scripture in Matthews)...(the 3 sons)...

    One day we'll all be laying up in a convelescent center...what will I, we, have done between now and then to have made life worth while?....

    I know...much easier to write about than to do...but I feel I'm leaving a trail for a reason...I mean who else does this? who else has this kind of longevity?

    Not sure what they were looking for to begin with, if not basic friendship....

    When i was friends with people in kindergarden, we remaind friends for decades, not a few short posts...through the good, and the bad, through the pleasant and unpleasent....that's me...that's what I'm about...growth and change, and ever adapting to meet the challenges of life...a new world...

    I have left no one, cause I've always been here...

    Hello everyone...

    Hope all is well...

    Oh what can I say...I'm either a wreck or a success...

    When your going through it, there's so much uncertainty...

    It's not until you reflect and write the book, can you say for certain what happened or occured....

    So many people are average...trained, taught to be that way, and as a result miss out on a lot...

    As a result, find yourself sitting in a stuffy truck stop tv lounge looking at tv shows or movies with those in them like myself...

    Chuckling and laughing and deriving meaning from these stupid shows...somehow validating self throught the movie or show...not realizing their just actors...

    But when you meet such a person in real life, or on a forum...it's blind to you...

    guppies....what else can I say....

    I wish you all nothing but the best...in your close minded restricted lenses....

    Be as close minded and bigoted as you want....

    Won't effect me a bit....

    Be as hateful and prejudice as you want...again..won't effect me...

    Your not 'gods'...just flawed humans...like myself....

    My life will go on, as will yours...

    Do what you feel is right for you....

    But realize this...

    Your lack of growth, close mindedness...really limits future growth and potential....

    But be blessed anyways...maybe I'm the fool....

    I don't need to quote others...maybe someday others will be quoting me...
