Such A Coward

Why is that? I mean, I can look at slicing, slashing, chopping, amputating, and mutilating human bodies with very little or no qualms at all. Not to mention that I find it fascinating at times. I’m okay with suspense/mystery movies like Cry Wolf. Damn, we loved Cry Wolf.

But when we talk about lady apparitions, I easily get scared. I did not love One Missed Call Japanese version, my dears. Gabby can attest to that.

It all began when I still couldn’t find Teaching Mrs. Tingle and to avoid throwing a fit, I just bought other movies written by Kevin Williamson instead which includes the Scream trilogy and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Now, with a lot of time spent inside the video store, I learned that The Faculty was also written by Kevin Williamson. You know, The Faculty! The one with Josh Hartnett and alien parasites! Yes, it was by him. I didn’t know that. And I also bought Cursed.

Since I noticed that Joshua Jackson was in Cursed, I also went into a Pacey Witter spree. I mean, I just got off from a Meredith Monroe TV show re-runs like Moonlight, Private Practice, Californication, and House so it’s just proper to move on to Joshua Jackson.

I grabbed D2: The Might Ducks and D3: The Mighty Ducks even though the first part of the trilogy isn’t available. I bought Urban Legend and Cruel Intentions since there’s also no Gossip.

(As you can see, I’M OFFICIALLY BORED.)

It’s not easy watching Joshua Jackson die twice today.

And Shutter. Yes, Shutter had its lady apparition. Shutter is just 85 minutes long, but it took me almost THREE HOURS to finish it. I had to pause the film A LOT and leave the room to, uhm, not freak out. I thought I was being clever when took my nephew as prisoner so that I have someone with me in the room, but even he demanded to make it stop (He cried, “Patay na, ‘Nang. Patay na.” Not patay as in dead, but patay as in turn it off and turn it off I did.)

I am simply just a coward.

First of all, IT’S NOT EVEN THAT SCARY! With all the hotness that is Joshua Jackson, I still couldn’t look at apparating lady!

Ooooh! However, John Hensley was in it. I remember someone telling me that he has a friend who has a crush on Hensley and I was like, “Why? He looks like Michael Jackson!” And despite being really, really gross in Nip/Tuck, I liked him here and I thought that he is, maybe cute. David Denman was also in it. Every Pam-Jim shipper of The Office did not like this guy. James Kyson Lee who played Ando in Heroes had a small role. It’s like TV reunion.

Still, it’s not a good distraction from apparating lady clinging on Joshua Jackson’s shoulder. A lady whose spirit energy shows up in photos and that prompted me to look at my photos!

Then, I thought that it’s just like Lost in Translation. Newlywed, guy photographer, alienated wife. Only Lost in Translation is way funnier than Shutter.

How am I going to sleep now?

Roger Federer lost the 1st set, damn it!


Can somebody please make the 4th season of Dexter come soon?

I talk too much, no? And I’m supposed to benefit to how convenient Twitter is for me.

You can always NOT read, you know.
