New Years Day!

Well today is the first day of 2010! Yes it is an even year but hopefully a good one. Of course the first thing we did to start the year off was of course watch movies.

The series Fear Itself has an episode called New Year's Day. Fear Itself is a great horror series and this is a good episode to watch New Year's day. It is about this lady who wakes up New Year's day after a big party on New Years Eve. Something strange is going on and there is no power. All she wants to do is get to her boyfriends place. Well along the way she runs into zombies, dying people and starts to remember the event of the night before. It's only about 45 minutes but it's great. Every new year should start with Zombies!

Another great movie with the New Year's theme is Strange Days. Amazing movie, great casting and good story line. Lenny Nero deals in dreams. Formerly an LAPD vice cop, he now deals in illegal 'squid' recordings. Recordings made directly from the cerebral cortex of the participant, which allow the viewer to feel and experience everything the participant experiences as if they were there. One of life's perpetual losers, he ekes out a lonely, miserable existence at the end of the millennium, still pathetically yearning for his beautiful ex-girlfriend Faith, a beautiful singer, and is dependent on his friend Macey, who both loves him unquestioningly and despairs for him completely, in equal measure. But Lenny's life is about to be shattered. When he is anonymously sent the recording of the brutal rape and murder of a prostitute he is acquainted with, he and Macey soon find themselves reluctantly embroiled in a dark web of murder, blackmail and intrigue amid the civil unrest surrounding the suspicious death of an influential, politically active rap singer. Lenny and Macey are soon running from Faith's brutal manager, Philo Gant, and a pair of menacing police officers, as they try to uncover the connection between the two and stay alive long enough to see in the millennium.

Movie Quote for t0day is from Strange Day's Philo Gant: "The only time a whore should open her mouth is when she is giving head."
