Let's have a nice Nature Flick.

I see your call and raise you:
-
Zombie Strippers.
Hell I was I was in a band that played in a club behind them I'm quite sure.
-
Then what should one say about this?
-
"Clenching is futile."

Derren Brown hypnotizes a guy into believing a zombie arcade game is real, I'd poop myself if it happened to me.

I don't have much to comment about camp horror films. . .but I did want to add a bit of insight into the histrionics of Old Abe as a Vampire Hunter. I am sure that a good deal of the movie is steeped in documented historical fact. (Heck, I bet you can take a course on it at Georgetown) but there was one slight historical hiccup I caught when watching the trailer the other night with my son . . .
The Washington Monument didnt look like this during Lincoln's lifeteime. Its construction was suspended during the Civil War and wasn't dedicated until about 1884. Other than that. . .I am sure the rest of the movie is entirely accurate and meaningful and will be of immense benefit in the instruction of history to our Young People.
[Edit} ps. .. does this mean that Booth used a silver bullet?
-
The monument looks like a giant wooden stake.
-
You beat me to it.
-
I always thought it was George Washington that was rather handy with and axe?
-
True but he chased after trolls and sprites but come on, who wants to see a movie about that?
-
Abe was a rail-splitter, so he knew his way around an axe. Rails. .. vampires. .. .it all comes down to the same thing. . .. idiocy.
-
George was supposed to have cut down a cherry tree as a child. True or not? But Abe was the rail splitter.
-
George cutting down the tree is absolutely true of course. But what is Not known is that he thought he was killing a soul- stealing cacodemon. Turned out to be just a cherry tree.
A verY evil cherry tree.
-
Further ramblings. Honesty is ironically what we look for in politicians. So Washington's story is about him fessing up to cutting the tree, something no politician would do any longer. There was probably not another likely suspect for miles around... like a born politician, he turned it into a positive appearance.
When Lincoln came along, he was marketed as "Honest Abe". It's assumed the opposition isn't, of course.
Sorry, OT...
-
well if was cut down today. . .GW would definitely have spin-meisters who would help him play the right card on the whole Cherry Tree scandal. . .
"The cutting down of the cherry tree was for the greater good"
"The cherry Tree was part of a vast right wing conspiracy"
""Cutting down the Tree provided needed jobs for underserved communities. . ."
"We will not let a bunch of wacko greeniac tree huggers get in the way of creating logging jobs"It goes on and on.
The cherry tree was affiliated with Al Qeada.
