I Love Creepiness...

I don't know where it came from or where it started, but I love creepiness. I think that had a big factor in the Dark Avenger fiasco.

I have come across two things lately which have absolutely blown me away.

Number One - Mr. Brooks

This movie is so good! I thought I was going to like it, but I was surprised by how much I LOVED it. All I knew going in was Kevin Costner was a killer and William Hurt was some creepy guy in his mind. Oh man, William Hurt and Kevin Costner do such a good job!

Number Two - Dexter

I looked at the top searches on isoHunt.com and I saw Dexter in there. Thought I would look into it. All I knew was that it was a tv show about a serial killer of some sort. Okay, I watched the first episode yesterday and immediately went to buy the DVD. This show is brilliantly creepy...the end of the first episode absolutely sucked me in!

These fit in nicely with my taste in strange movies. Let me recap some of those for you....

Psycho

I hope they are watching... they'll see. They'll see and they'll know, and they'll say, "Why, she wouldn't even harm a fly...”

The Shining

Perhaps they need a good talking to, if you don't mind my saying so. Perhaps a bit more. My girls, sir, they didn't care for the Overlook at first. One of them actually stole a pack of matches, and tried to burn it down. But I "corrected" them sir. And when my wife tried to prevent me from doing my duty, I "corrected" her.

Session 9

Hello, Gordon. You know who I am... *Do it, Gordon.*

A Clockwork Orange

There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening.

Se7en

We see a deadly sin on every street corner, in every home, and we tolerate it. We tolerate it because it's common, it's trivial. We tolerate it morning, noon, and night. Well, not anymore. I'm setting the example. What I've done is going to be puzzled over and studied and followed... forever.

Saw

Rise and shine, Adam. You're probably wondering where you are. I'll tell you where you might be. You might be in the room that you die in.

The Cell

Do you believe there is a part of yourself, deep inside in your mind, with things you don't want other people to see? During a session when I'm inside, I get to see those things.

From Hell

There, there Netley. I shall tell you where we are. We're in the darkest region of the human brain, a radiant abyss where men go to find themselves.

Frailty

Do it like I showed you, the neck is first.

Friday the 13th

You see, Jason was my son, and today is his birthday...
(The scariest ending to a movie I have ever experienced!)

Silence of the Lambs

A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.

Sweet Dreams....
