Entry #3 The Leprechaun Sighting in Crichton, Alabama 2006

Image
I know its February but... Its almost πŸ€March πŸ€, so I wanted to do something fun! πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ€ This story is from a local news broadcast (NBC 15) in Crichton Alabama, it is a popular story on the internet that is now nearly two decades old. In March of 2006, the local residents in Crichton Alabama gathered around a tree just before Saint's, Patrick's Day! NBC 15 noticed this and quickly picked up on the story of what was occurring within the community. The rest is internet history! Brian Johnson was one of the news reporters on the ground looking into this story and who interviewed the residents in the community. Although the sighting of the leprechaun was never shown in a video or in the broadcast, a hilarious drawing of the supposed "leprechaun" was shown in the video.  The depiction of the supposed leprechaun appears to have a hat and a face with a no mouth. (its hard to tell because the drawing looks like it was made by some half assed sketch and this is 2006.) However...

Movie review, The Poughkeepsie Tapes

 HI Everyone! Today's movie review is The Poughkeepsie Tapes, directed by John Erick Dowdle, the film was originally released in 2008, but due to unknown reasons it was pulled from schedule. Until 2017 the film was released on Blu Ray. The film has been reviewed as, "disturbing". And yes the film is quite disturbing, but there are not many graphic scenes its for the most part psychological which is what makes it disturbing. (I recommend watching it with someone else, not alone, never experienced fear that I am afraid for my life.)  (some spoilers)  The film is a true crime mockumentary, (thus its not a real documentary, and only a fictional documentary) following FBI agents and police investigating a serial killer who has stalked and tortured its victims while recording himself in the act. This concept is the typical true crime fashion especially now since true crime has widely risen in popularity before the era of streaming services, podcasts, YouTube etc. for its time i...

Movie review, Skinamarink

Image
 HI GUYS! So far I have now watched Skinamarink. This film was a very strange and a different experience. (Some spoilers). I recommend watching the movie to get the experience.  Skinamarink is a horror/experimental film directed by Kyle Edward Ball, although I am not familiar with any of his movies, as far as this one goes its a pretty interesting one. "The film is hard to explain" or "I didn't get this film" and the most common, " this movie has an uncanny analogue horror aesthetic ", is a sentiment among many who watched the film. Yes this film is hard to make any sense of and it does have an analogue horror vibe. The movie doesn't explain what is happening only the director knows and only his psyche, the plot is there but not in the "logical sense" only the "lyrical sense". The cinematography has a "super 8 film" grain quality to it as well as the audio. The shots are for the most part still, and there are character...
