Friday, October 29th, 2004

i totally forgot to describe what the site of the week is. it’s called Awful Plastic Surgery. need i say more? great before and after pics– celebrities, too!

how strange is it that this past week’s episodes of "CSI" (from 10/21), "Law & Order," and "Without a Trace," all had to do with plastic surgery?

TEMPORARY HIATUS

Thursday, October 28th, 2004

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause anyone, but due to increased responsibilites, Cell 2187 will be on temporary hiatus.  However, I will attempt to update the media list as often as possible.

Over the next few weeks I will be in the process of moving Cell 2187 to another site.  Once this happens, I will post an entry with the new URL.

Thanks for your understanding, and if you have any questions, please e-mail me at bloggochicago@gmail.com.

May the Force be with You!

Theater Thursday#23: Scary Movies

Thursday, October 28th, 2004

Theater Thursday

It’s that scary time of year again. Halloween. With that in mind…
1) What’s your favorite scary movie?
Candyman is my favorite, not so much because it was a good movie, but because it scared me so badly i was afraid to look in the mirror for weeks; i was afraid i would accidentally say “Candyman” five times.

but my favorite, favorite is the original, Japanese version of The Ring, called Ringu.

2) Are you more into the lame scary movies that make you laugh, or the straight up – scare the bejesus out of you – scary movies?
oo! i like the superscary movies. as much as i can’t stand being scared, at the same time, i love that feeling–kind of like riding a roller coaster, you know? plus, you know it isn’t real.

3) Scary movies – best viewed alone? Or with a crowd?
most definitely not alone! i’m the biggest scaredycat!

BONUS) You’ve parked your behind on the couch for a marathon of scary movies. What 5 scary movies are on your list?
in no particular order:

  • Hellraiser
  • Omen II
  • The Exorcist
  • Candyman (why not?)
  • Texas Chainsaw Massacre (either version)
