Awwww yeah. Getting ready for Halloweeen!

and sorry for the lack of posts (and really any original content..). With school & new job time has really gotten away from me!

and that's all you'll hear of this pity party!

Fun stuff via Kitchy Living Tumblr!

Wow. They can make anything "sexy" these days....

 "Sassy" Big Bird
Lucy (From Peanuts Obvs).
Sexy Scrabble? Really??

Whipped Cream Costume

And yes, I know this is obvs "sexy"... still funny. What would be even better if you could fill those babies with whipped cream and shoot people down! (Stanley Spadowski style!)

In the same vein: The Newsflesh Trilogy! Excellent reading about how mass media can help and hinder once the zombie apocalypse hits.

After running the Women's Classic 5k, this seems more appropriate...

1. It's a 5k run. Or possibly a 10k run, depending on which route you take.
2. It's also an obstacle course
3. You are chased by Zombies.

I am SO signing up.
Oh, and the girls I work with? Signing up to be Zombies.

Most excellent.

Armed with cameras and overnight gear, a very adventurous group decided to infiltrate the U.S. Naval Fleet's reserve ships. These ships, floating in Suisun Bay, were "retired" for decades and have been sitting unused! (Some even served in WW II!).

Here are some fancy photos of their excursion around the ships, into the captains quarters and even what looks like a dentist's office! Inside the Ghost Ships of the Mothball Fleet




Glad someone else went here to take these photos.
I'm pretty sure I'd be scared poop-less!

Dammit.. why didn't I think of this?
Looks pretty easy... just need a few key ingredients... then BLAMBO! Splooosh with Black paint!
Genius.

Cause I'm at work, I had to watch this soundless... (speakers still ain't workin!). But dear god in heaven, my cub-mates must think I'm nuts, cause when he started to freak-out, I just about lost it!

If only my babysitting days were this entertaining.

Rock on Shrill Gay man, Rock on!

I'm kinda creeped out by these... But it looks like a pretty quick idea for a Halloween costume!

Oh wait!!! I just got the best idea!!!
Make a mask of yourself.. .and wear that at the office!
That way, no one knows you're snoozing!!!
My poor attempt:
Genius.

Mm...waking up sometimes I feel like a Zombie.
I'm pretty sure these would help.

(p.s. I don't care how many times you call them "delicious", I'm actually a little grossed out.). LINK!

WTF is this?!!!?? If I didn't know better, I'd think my brain was on acid and my head just exploded into a million vomiting kitties! (yep, it's in the trailer).
Easily the wierdest most drug-encouraging "horror" movie, House(Hausu), is coming to the Senator this weekend!

Janus Films summed it up pretty good:

How to describe Nobuhiko Obayahshi’s 1977 movie House? As a psychedelic ghost tale? A stream-of-consciousness bedtime story? An episode of Scooby Doo as directed by Dario Argento? Any of the above will do for this hallucinatory head trip about a schoolgirl who travels with six classmates to her ailing aunt’s creaky country home, only to come face to face with evil spirits, bloodthirsty pianos, and a demonic housecat.

I'm going. Someone come with and assure me this is all just a dream?

UPDATE: I will now have nightmares of turning into bananas. This movie was way more bizarre than I could ever, EVER imagine. Even my hubs, who hates my wierdo taste in movies, said he was gonna buy the DVD just to inflict the horror on other people! Personally I think it was all the underage boobies. :)

Rats, I should have thought of this for my costume! Instead, I confused people by dressing like Holly Golightly, who apparently looks a lot like a First Lady... sigh. via

BALTIMORE -- A Baltimore city police officer was charged with assault after he pulled a gun on a haunted house character over the weekend.

Baltimore County police said Sgt. Eric Janik, 36, pulled his gun on a haunted house employee dressed up as the killer from "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" at the House of Screams show in Essex on Sunday. Police said the employee approached Janik after the haunted house tour was over in a bid to get "one last scream."Instead, Janik, who was off-duty, pulled his service weapon and pointed it at Michael Morrison's chest.

 Everyone's okay, but the copper, who was CLEARLY intoxicated, has been suspended w/out pay until a formal hearing.

And the employee needs a new pair of pants. link/ via

I've got some mixed feelings about this...like:

1) Michael Bay = YAY! Micheal Bay + Transformers 2 = BOOO!


2)Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy = YAY! Robert Englund not as Freddy??? = BOO!
Helloo??? He's played Freddy 12 TIMES!!! (not counting each Freddy TV episode). THERE IS NO OTHER FREDDY KRUGER. 

3) Scarier = YAY! Less Jokey = BOOO!!! (according to Jackie's interview)

4) There's been 9 Elm Street Sequels. Do we really, really, really need another one?

5) Why are we remaking GREAT old movies?

Synopsis!

THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS is a fantastical morality tale, set in the present-day. It tells the story of Dr. Parnassus and his extraordinary ‘Imaginarium’, a traveling show where members of the audience get an irresistible opportunity to choose between light and joy or darkness and gloom. Blessed with the extraordinary gift of guiding the imaginations of others, Doctor Parnassus is cursed with a dark secret. An inveterate gambler, thousands of years ago he made a bet with the devil, Mr. Nick, in which he won immortality. Centuries later, on meeting his one true love, Dr. Parnassus made another deal with the devil, trading his immortality for youth, on condition that when his daughter reached her 16th birthday, she would become the property of Mr. Nick.

Of course you'll know it as Heath Ledger's last movie...I'll now refer to it as "The ultimate awesomeness from Terry Gilliam". Since "The ultimate awesomeness from Terry Gilliam" was left unfinished, Collin Farrell, Johnny Depp and Jude Law will be filling in the blank spots. Looks like Eye Candy every which way!

Or at least the ones I took pics of. There's some other great ones here. (Including a action shot of DSTMatt caught unawares in the IronMan pic!).
Never did get that pic of the "Tubby Justice League"!

So awesome! And check out the AMAZING display at SDCC! Thru Twitter people could follow Alice's footsteps into a huge walkthru set for Wonderland! Kicking myself I missed this one!

Words just don't work here.
Needless to say I'm in HIGH anticipation for the 10-yrs later "sequel" to Alice in Wonderland. I'm thinking dark, scary and pretty durn creepy. Hellooo Tim Burton's next masterpiece!
