The Deep Hole

The Deep Hole

My creepiest experiences often didn’t happen on ghost hunts. I was recently reminded of one strange occurrence. This happened when I was in my early 20’s at a local fishing spot in my hometown called, The Deep Hole. The Deep Hole was a place where two streams merged into one larger stream. When the water […]

New Alien Movie Directed by Neill Blomkamp

New Alien Movie Directed by Neill Blomkamp

This seems official. The movie Alien will be recreated using Neill Blomkamp ideas. I wouldn’t classify this film as a reboot, but more like alternate universe Alien. The concept art was neat and the ideas were original. SciFi is definitely in Neil’s range. He’s directed District 9 (2009), Elysium (2013), and Stargate SG-1 (1997). Good […]

Weekend Box Office Results of July 1982

My favorite horror movie is the 1982 John Carpenter version of The Thing. IMO it’s a near perfect horror movie. It’s become a highly respected cult classic, however, back when it was released the movie was considered a flop at the box-office and nearly ruined the career of John Carpenter. Say what you will about […]

Advice: Your Degree is Only Worth 25 Percent.

Advice: Your Degree is Only Worth 25 Percent.

There seems to be this false belief that if you get an education or a prestigious degree that you should be able to find or keep a job. Some advice: No degree or amount of experience can guarantee that you won’t be out on the street tomorrow. Your only security is in your skills, knowledge, […]

Stephen King’s Novel, The Shining

Stephen King’s Novel, The Shining

The Shining was published in 1977, and it was one of the few Stephen King books that I did not read growing up. I decided it was time to read it and I was not disappointed. The story follows an American family trying to make it threw some rough times. An out-of-work Jack Torrance accepts […]

In this game you play Knack, a relic golem, created to help save the world from the evil goblin invaders. The game’s play style and storyline are simple: collect relics, grow large, beat up the bad […]
