If you remember The Moffatts, go (here) and listen to "Perilously Here." Both the other songs are pretty good too, but "Perilously Here" is AMAZING. So I misjudged Scott - apparently the excessive drinking and pot-smoking hasn't totally ruined his creativity.

I will be buying the CD when it's made available.

Next topic: I had the hardest time going to sleep last night.  I went to see "Silent Hill" after work with the girls because I had a free ticket and it's been ages since we saw a movie.  Typically, I'm fine with movie gore and stuff because I can easily reconcile the fact that it isn't real blood, but this movie put some of the worst images into my head.  I have a really strong stomach anyway, but I literally felt ill at some parts of this film (Caution: Spoiler coming).  There's a scene where a woman is held over a fire and we see her entire death sequence, down to melting fabric and bubbling skin, and the worst part is that they made sure we knew that a little girl was watching her die and being traumatized. (Okay, spoilers over).  I also wasn't aware that it is based on a video game, because if I had known that, I would have used my free ticket on something else.  The movie made absoltely no sense, and I hate it when I walk out of the theater having no idea what the hell just happened.  So FYI, there is completely unnecessary gore and blood and images of horrifying bodily harm in this movie.  And the monstery-creature things were definately the scariest things I have ever seen in movies.  But the movie itself was horrible.  Bad acting, bad writing.  Don't waste your money.

I didn't know anyone else remembered the Moffatts.

I hardly ever see movies in the theater anymore because they seem to be making worse ones. My friends and I have started just renting them when they come out on DVD so we don't waste too much money if it turns out to be horrible.

I HATE HATE HATE scary movies, but I want so bad to see Silent Hill because I kinda liked the game (although I never played it...just slightly familiar with it), but I KNOW for a fact that it will scare the crap out of me. Just the previews freak me out, because those creatures are SCARY. And I'm home a LOT by myself late at night while Ryan is working, and I don't want the images of those things coming after me. And what's even scarier is that they are real poeple acting in costume, and not CG creatures. EEEEK.

You could tell they were real because of the way they moved and how full and fleshed out they were. It made it a lot scarier. But other than the fact that those creatury things were really gross and scary, the movie wasn't scary because I didn't have any idea what was happening. Can you explain what Silent Hill's deal is to me? I'm so lost ^.^

Michelle - I LOVE The Moffatts! I was always a Scott fan; a couple months ago I found his MySpace and he's kind of pathetic now: self-depricating and doing nothing but drinking and smoking pot, but apparently he's done a little more than that and is putting out a CD. And judging from these 3 songs he has on MySpace, a pretty good one. Did you listen to "Perilously Here?" You should! If you want to see his personal profile, he's under my friends as Jabberwhorl Cronstadt. I don't know why.
