Halloween is finally back. Trick 'r Treat.

The spirit of great Halloween movies has finally returned, and I'm not talking about the lame remake of Halloween II. When critics say that Trick 'r Treat is the best Halloween movie to have come along in 30 years their not lying. I was a little concerned about the film only having an 82 minute run time, but it turns out that that's all the time they needed. This film was smart and fun from beginning to end. Shot in a style reminiscent of Creepshow this film has four intertwining story lines each delivering the type of campy scary fun that I know I've come to love in my horror films. This film is a must see for horror fans. Trick 'r Treat was produced by Bryan Singer ( director of X-Men and Superman Returns) and writer-director Michael Dougherty (co-script writer of X2 and Superman Returns). The film won the Audience Choice Award at Screamfest. Trick 'r Treat is now available on DVD by Warner Brothers.

Homebound

Recently I took a trip to Durango Colorado and found myself captivated by the majestry of it's mountains. A few years back I had been stationed at Fort Carson Colorado and I was immediatly drawn to the beauty of Pikes Peak. I always swore to myself I would return to Colorado and I fulfilled that promise to myself. Although on the way home I was barreling down I 550 towards the town of Bernallio in New Mexico and as I looked to my right I saw the most incredible sight. It was sunset and the sky was filled with the colorfull remnents of the drowning sun and the nightsky had begun to engulf those remnents casting stars unto the herizon, however it was the land that would fill my eyes with awe and my heart with joy. For from this land arose formations that seemed to be as if they had come from the deepest recesses of a wonderful dream. It is for this reason that I will always regard NM as home. Colorado has it's majestic mountains, but they can never beat our enchanted landscapes.
