Haunted doll

A little back story for those tl;dw people: Some kids don't have friends, but even if the majority does, I think we all went through the same kid phase of wanting to turn our favorite toys into real life friends. 

A best friend forever.




Well, here's Robert the Doll. 

Childhood friend of painter and author Robert Eugene Otto.
Robert the Doll is allegedly cursed and rumored to be able move about by himself, grinning at children through the windows (Robert was confined to the Attic when Otto found his true best friend forever; His wife). He also fucks up Otto when he can, making him beat up his wife and leaving Otto only able to explain that "It was Robert, Robert did it!". Also rumored to giggle. I isolated that line because dolls that laugh are horrifying. Fuck right? Well watch the videa. He also served as the inspiration for the Child's Play series! Getting back to the story: When the family finally moved out, the house left behind was turned into The Artist House, Now a guesthouse (Imagine the stories there) and Robert now lives in The East Martello Museum (click link for testimonies, Robert still up to his ol' tricks)

Oh, I'm also sharing something very similar by Kazuo Umezu. 

It's called The Wish

(Excited) Last V

Well it's been exactly a week I think, It's time to post the most recent 5 again.

Wall. As you can see, up to Dead Alive (wet dreams for me) It has been a shit-fest. Acceptable sized Alternative posters (If available) and side comments to come later. But it wasn't such an excrement-related-adjective-here Movie week for me. I's watched some gems and some acceptably good ones: Slaughterhouse-Five by George Roy Hill, Billy Pilgrim cast perfectly, A Guillermo Del Toro remake is also rumored to be made, 1972 (5❤); I attended alongside my girlfriend the Philippine-Japan Friendship month film viewing event and watched 5 Centimeters Per Second and The Place Promised in Our Early Days both by Makoto Shinkai, 2007 (3.5) 2004 (3) respectively; and Chop Suey by Catherine O. Camarillo, 2007 (4) none of the mentioned are horror films. I'll try to refrain from thesums. kind of posts.

[spot reserved for posters and side fries]

Also been back on track with the eerie and grotesque by reading The Drifting Classroom by Kazuo Umezu (1972-1974) A nightmarish (seriously I had a nightmare about one of it's suffocating scenes, was awesome) Post-Apocalyptic Horror. Sounds good? Good.

Here's a sample (Remember: you read it from right to left [it's already mind fucking])

Last V (Horror Movies)

Really slow month for my horror tastes. I left out some of the other "Horror" movies, which I liked, but doesn't really fit in. Those movies were Suicide Club by Shion Sono, 2001 (3.5); Stoker by Chan-wook Park, Hollywood debut 2013 (4.5 ❤); and Noriko's Dinner Table by Shion Sono, Indirectly "Suicide Club 2" 2006 (4.5 ❤)

So for my valid last five ones, here's some high-def posters (Alternates, also click for larger photo) and some side comments.

Hausu 

Nobuhiko Ôbayashi

(Japan, 1977)

My thoughts on this Movie:

I MUST BE ON ACID

Dark Skies

Scott Stewart

(USA, 2013)

My thoughts on this Movie:

Suburban Horror, Kids friends with demons.. I mean Aliens. It's Aliens that are friends with them this time. Uhh..I should've watched the other Dark Skies 2013 movie:

That would've been so Awesome

and hilarious

Evil Dead

Fede Alvarez

(USA, 2013)

by Karthik Abhiram

My thoughts on this movie:

I was a fan of the original The Evil Dead Series, mostly on 1 & 2. 3, not so much. Too much comedy. This was an okay take, An Adult version of the All style and No Substance (Perfectamundo) The Evil Dead but this wasn't so bad. My friend (who hasn't watched the original series) just kept looking for plot holes each scene cause it was ripped on by some female celebrity on twitter (some of which were actually pretty logical for Evil Dead, It's all in the newly polished Naturom Demonto) and hated it so uh. You shouldn't do that. But if you do find that you actually hate it, good for you. I am on the neutral side (3/5). I liked some of the references from 1 & 2 though (Chainsaw-arm mostly) and found some very weak (Natalie: [Robotically] oh my god what happened to her EYes. from Shelley:FOR GOD'S SAKE WHAT HAPPeNED TO HER EYESSS) Overall. Pretty average.

Texas Chainsaw 3D

(USA, 2013)

from some Hipster art guy buddies of VICE and-or Lionsgate

My thoughts on this movie:

No sir, I didn't. Leatherface has a new best friend. Also, expect the scene where Leatherface touches his new friendly (Do your thing, cuz) bff cousin's arm and BOOM. Boom sound goes off. That's right. Replace actual scares with boom sounds. That's pretty low. This modern take is low. Girls were nice though.

Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead

Noboru Iguchi

(Japan, 2012)

My thoughts on this movie:

I thought it was..

Crap-tastic

&

I learned that I love Japan (Not-a-weeaboo)

I left my other stills at home. But this was an awesome movie. 8/10 (I like Evil Dead and Re-animator, Self-aware gorey slapsticks are the best)

Next on the list: RoboGeisha, Audition, Ringu and another movie my sister recommended that I can't remember. Then after those I'm going to finish our Western collection with Toolbox Murders and the like.

Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead

It's on the playlist for tewday

Forget it Jake

It's somethin town

Come

I took this before with a really crappy camera phone. I think it looks nice though. Narcissist. Self-deprecator.

Damn.

Here are some photos. A lot of them 2010-ish

I love that year



Moon
or Eye Peeking From The Sky



I hate the sun. So I have fake suns in my room



Dead butterfly. Notice the ants. There's beauty everywhere if you know how to look at it.
(If I remember correctly, this was an awesome day with my smoker korean friend girl, random thought)



Look at all that free sky. That airplane feels so claustrophobic right now.
(Taken at the church somewhere here in Pilipinas. Smoking the afternoon away with a bud)



Me. (From four years ago)



Also me (From four years ago)



You guessed it (But this time, three years ago)



I went back to my probinsya (Provinces tend to be really creepy places) And I found this. Or it found me. I don't know. He was staring. And smiling. and waiting.

I'm done.

You guys

better

check

your

backs.

OARH

The quality of my posts has been mediocre. I think I'm not into so much "weird" stuff anymore. I don't think that's a good thing. I lost my-self. The self is non existant. etc etc etc pretensions Now Reading 1q84. Not by George Orwell.

And here's some more creepy interesting animal info from Zefrank

this chicken

It's stalking me today

....

I gave it some cake

Ha, you just ate eggs. Bastard

Life

You guys

really need to buy the book Blink.

The Pistol Shrimp

Underwater guns man. Literally a bubble-gun. It can kill you. Just kidding. I don't know if it can. For a second it's as hot as the surface of the sun or something. Upon closer inspection, it looks like an underwater Hadouken.

this is a repost from my other blog

Well as of 8:06pm, 9/5/2012

I am currently reading

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

With the Penguin reprint cover, which I find better than the original. It's talks about using our inborn ability called "Thin-slicing" or our ability to gauge what is really important from a very narrow period of experience. We use it most of the time but we are unaware of it. The book explains how important and relevant snap decision making is as opposed to months or years of research. Basically, it means too much information can lead to wrong decisions because you stray too far from the main points. 

As Gladwell says "This book is all about those moments when we 'know' something without knowing why". It shares amazing studies and experiences like how one Marriage Analyst can decipher in a 15 minute conversation between a newly married couple; with 95% accuracy, whether they would stay together or not. Another is a fireman who thought he had ESP but it was just his subconscious synthesizing his expertise with the situation in a second telling him and his crew to get out of the burning kitchen. 

Instincts, Subliminal priming.. etc all in this book. Though I haven't finished it yet I'd give it a 5/5 for informing about these possibilities.

I am currently listening to.. while reading

Zs - New Slaves (The Social Registry, May 2010)

A Brooklyn based band which incorporates... well. It seems like random thrashing at first but it's actually composed hypnotically liked that. I like how I don't have to think about what's going on with it and just play it because it is what it is. Currently on the 20 minute title track that sounds like a very eclectic traffic jam. 

The title of the track "Acres of Skin" also has an interesting back story. 

quoted from villagevoice.com: 

What is the title "Acres Of Skin" about?

"Acres of skin" is a quote from the dermatologist Dr. Robert M. Kligman who conducted tests on prisoners in the Holmesburg prison in Pennsylvania. He was conducting experiments, which proved to be quite dangerous and permanently detrimental to his subjects. Later, when describing the environment he'd chosen for these experiments, he said something to the effect of "I walked into the prison and all I saw were acres of skin."

Try Them:

Track 1, from New Slaves LP

                        I am currently drinking

Some Jasmine Tea with flowers and a little bit of milk. I am an asspie

just because I use facebook

It’s about a guy that takes girls on the lake and kills them! though not really

"I'll suck the marrow out and break your bones, Yummy."..

was what I thought at first but turned out to be this:

"I'll suck the marrow out and rape your hollow bones, Yoni."

My personal tags for this band would be alternative-hip hop, folk, and in a rush with wet coke in a Starbucks bathroom with the door closed hiding from my friends in the bathroom at Thrift Town to write this tune down. did anyone hear my cry there? through a toilet stall divider-core

WONT BE POSTING ANY MORE BECAUSE OF SHITTY FONT PROBLEMS WITH BLOGGER

Currently Digging: October

I apologize for the lack of creepiness in my recent posts. I'll try to make more posts like that in the near future.

Anyway, Here's an unnecessary list of what I've been up to this month. It's my semestral break by the way so this is the only time that I am truly free. :) Treat as "Things I recommend/Don't recommend".

Video Games:

I've been playing a lot games for the DS. The most recent one being: Harvest Moon DS: Sunshine Islands (really gay name)

It's (kind of) a port of Harvest Moon: Back to Nature (PSOne) to the DS, it has almost the same characters but they're renamed and redrawn. Mineral Town characters make an appearance sometimes.

I'm also trying to finish lots of RPG games via DS. I'm using emulators with it like the Lameboy (for gb/gbc) and SNEmulDS (for snes, the link is a direct download).

Animorphs with the lameboy
Link to review: http://thathingwearingmommieskin.blogspot.com/2011/10/animorphs.html

Music:
Still listening to The Smiths, as you can see. But more The Queen is Dead and The original s/t and less Meat is Murder.

Lit/Manga:

Been reading Charles Dicken's Great Expectations. And a bunch of stuff by Shintaro Kago.

of which I'm going to share right now :)

All I could say is, Fuck Yeah. Unicorns.

Movies:

No Movies. Watched Pan's Labyrinth and Gran Torino. And I'm loving the Filipino Indie Film loving this year. More and more people are becoming aware of these films and understanding why mainstream movies suck most of the time. Thanks to Cinemalaya, Freedom in Cinema!

Here's a video to play you out:
