<p>A fun 'n snappy Howdy to ya'll! </p><p>I high-tailed it to Michigan last weekend to hang out with my friends, drink beer, smoke some herb, and watch plenty of horror movies. We all all big ol' horror geeks and had a groovy time. We watched the original/restored <em>My Bloody Valentine</em> (1980), the new 3-D remake of <em>My Bloody Valentine</em> (which looked excellent on blu ray), the early 1970s cheese fest <em>Frogs</em>, a cool little odd indie <em>Plague Town</em>, the awesome <em>Trick 'r Treat</em>, and lots of fun trailer compilations. </p><p><img height="752" alt="" width="480" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/frogs_1.jpg" /></p><p>I recently discovered a groovy movie from the UK called <em>Tormented.</em> It hasen't had a release in the US yet but it's 100% better than most of the shitty horror movies that get a release here.

<p>Howdy all!</p><p>This is the movie where lovely Jennifer Jones, as Astrid Steele, recites the hilarious bit of dialogue I used for this blog's title. Ha! It's a wild, psychedelic mess from 1969 best viewed with intoxicants. </p><p><img height="422" alt="" width="535" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/angel_angel_down_we_go_1.jpg" /></p><p>Here's the wonderful trailer:</p><p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMSYYBMljQU"></a><u><span style="COLOR: #800080"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMSYYBMljQU">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMSYYBMljQU</a></span></u></p><p>I recently finished a review for <em>Top Brass Military Issue #4.</em> I really liked the movie and there are plenty of hot straight Navy and Marine dudes who are willing to wank their cocks and "experiment" with man-on-man action. </p><p><img height="701" alt="" width="500" border="0" src="...              ]]>         </description>

<p>Happy Halloween Ya'll!</p><p>Now, I realize October 31st is a week away but I'll be too fuckin' tired by Friday to write a blog. Poindexter has been busting ass @ work and coming home exhausted. The weather here in Nashville is finally starting to feel like Fall. I love the cold/sunny days! To get in the mood, I've been watching horror movies from my DVD collection:<em> The Texas Chainsaw Massacre</em> (original and remake), <em>The Hills Have Eyes</em> (original and remake), <em>Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter </em>(which really isn't the "final chapter"! LOL!), and the cool/atmospheric   <br /><em>Let's Scare Jessica to Death.</em></p><p><img height="304" alt="" width="400" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/!1peanuts_2.jpg" /></p><p><img height="522" alt="" width="350" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/!1notld_1.jpg" /></...              ]]>         </description>

<p>Howdy All!</p><p>I'm relaxing and having my usual Sunday morning cup o Joe while listening to Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs album <em>Under the Covers.</em> They cover some very cool 1960s rock and pop ditties. Their version of Neil Young's <em>Cinnamon Girl</em> totally rocks. Loud guitars and groovy harmonizing vocals. </p><p><img height="333" alt="" width="420" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/!sidnsuze.jpg" /></p><p><img height="400" alt="" width="400" border="0" src="http://xcritic.com/admin/SPAW/spaw2/uploads/images/159/!00010984-176073_400_2.jpg" /></p><p>I decided to get "caught up" on watching some recent horror releases and rented/watched <em>Bell Witch: The Movie</em>, the new remake of the 1960s splatter romp <em>The Wizard of Gore</em>, and Greg McLean's <em>Rogue </em>this weekend. The best of the lot is definitely <em>Roge</em>. Beautiful cinema...              ]]>         </description>
