It’s All Fun And Games, Until You Run Over A Zombie

John Landis confirmed it. David Tennant will play William Hare in Burke and Hare.

[community profile] doctor_donna is hosting a Halloween challenge. I'll probably try to participate.

And now, a meme, taken from [personal profile] othercat:

Quote a bit of my writing at me? Find that one story of mine that you really like, and find a sentence or a paragraph that presses your prose-buttons in the right way, and comment here with it, no matter how long or short.

Then copypasta this into your journal, and we'll all have a big love-in!


In other news, it’s been settled. Dad and I will go see the 1920 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde at the Maiden Alley Cinema on the 24th. I then realized something else moments later. We get out at 5:30 PM. The sun will have set a little bit before that, in all likelihood. At 5:30 PM, the Zombie Walk in Paducah begins. The zombies will be slowly shuffling their way towards the Maiden Alley Cinema. So...if it’s too dark, we might run over a zombie or three.

Or the camera crew following them, since they’re apparently filming the zombies for a special horror movie. Or the local news, since they might be following behind them.

Dad was horrified, and added, “We might be extras, driving away from the zombies!”

Unfortunately my greatest association with John Landis any more is the petition to free Roman Polanski.

That's the problem when people who are really here to entertain us (no matter that they may have loftier opinions about their work) try to step outside of their role. When they try to go beyond entertaining us, they so frequently and disappointingly (1) get stupid, (2) piss us off or (3) both.

Ah, I love John Landis. Now, though, I've gotta go home and find my tape of "Excaliber", because I love that Wagner music more than I love John Landis but I have no actual Wagner music in the house and never will.

Be careful of those zombies.
