It's the best holiday that doesn't involve large amounts of free shit! And it's almost here!
This is just a short little burst of excitement post; it won't be long because I have a bunch of shit to do before I head out for Greenville in the morning. My advice to you is this: be absurd and ridiculous. Devin and I are probably going to be talking as our characters for the majority of the night! BATMAN VILLAINS! Seriously, eat lots of candy, go admire the spectacle of Halloween, watch appropriately themed movies (that are either scary or capture the spirit of the holiday), dress up in a ridiculous costume, and just enjoy the night's many eccentricities and rampant fun! Also, be safe! Halloween is crazy, so I need my friends to exercise rational judgment so I don't have to bail anyone out of jail--I'm broke, people!--or settle a fight with my unrivaled Jedi skills. It's probably one of the best times of the year--only on par with my birthday, of course. I've gotten into this little tradition of listening to the "It's Alive!" scene from Frankenstein every time this holiday rolls around. It really propels me into the empyrean center of the Halloween spirit.
Happy Halloween to all!
Film Suggestions: The Exorcist, The Shining, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (THE OLD ONE), Rosemary's Baby, Frankenstein, The Wicker Man, Rosemary's Baby, Dawn of the Dead, The Thing, Alien, Hocus Pocus, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Young Frankenstein, Misery, etc... Don't settle for crap on Halloween!
