can make me excited to see the new Fright Night movie.

I love David Tennant.....really I do, but.....yeah, I really hope this does not suck!

Man, frog queen has got to work on her attitude....sorry everyone! :D

    Remakes and re-imaging's used to bug me...a lot. But over time I realized as long as the first version I like is not burned or destroyed never to be seen again, I have a choice.

    Heck, don't forget several beloved horror "classics" were remakes like The Thing.

    So who knows? Fright Night could be a fun surprise, probably not, but maybe.

    Hmmm... I think I'll stick with
    Dr. Who.
    I really love the original Fright Night, and frankly, it just won't be the same with Roddy.
    I like Dave Lowe's take on "having a choice". I wouldn't sit the through the original "The Thing" as a teen, but LOVED the one with sexy Mr. Pliskin and the exploding Shepard! Whatever it takes to keep perpetuating the genre.
    New blood is always necessary.

    He is everywhere here. Oh how I long for a week without David Tennant! There is just too much of him.

    And yes, that looks like a bad movie.

    brace yourself...it will suck.
    as bloggers of the horror community we should take it upon ourselves to write and film our own original horror movie. i bet it would kick ass! robert rodriguez did it...

    The sound of the suckage may be great. Kind of like 1000 Dysons all hooked together and running at top speed...

    Y'know, I'm not oppossed to the concept of remakes. They can (rarely) be good! The Thing and Cape Fear are both remakes that are, at the very least, as good as the originals. Unfortunately, THIS remake does not seem like it will be even remotely decent. I love the original, but I was willing to give the remake a chance. The trailers, so far, don't bode well. It seems more like a cheap knock-off, that is utterly missing all of the elements that made the original such a fun flick.

    On the plus side, this will probably get the studio to release the first film on Blu Ray as a way of making a quick buck. If I get the HD treatment of the classic film, I'll be happy.

Going to the Chapel

Image
...and we're gonna get..... no life during the summer. :) (We are almost done with the Chapel, in fact, if all goes well, most of it goes up tonight. But I have not been documenting it here.  So I am going to retrospectively show you through the chapel build.) After a few years of planning, we finally decided to sell the abbey and build a chapel. The plan is that this will be easier to put together than the abbey has been.  The abbey took an entire weekend, a scissor lift and an army of people to set up.  This new chapel should go up in a few hours. This is the SketchUp plan. Front view from SketchUP Here is the real chapel that we modeled it after. Ardgowan Chapel in Scotland Yeah, we decided to phone it in this year :D

Happy National Donut Day from the Davis Graveyard

Image
Harold the Gravedigger squinted through the pre-dawn mist. A low, guttural groan echoed through the Davis Graveyard, sending a shiver down his spine. Not the usual mournful sighs of the restless dead, no. This was a sound more…sugary. More…sprinkled. Harold gripped his shovel tighter. The rumors had begun a week ago – whispers of a giant, sentient donut rolling through the cemetery at night, leaving a trail of sticky frosting and disembodied sprinkles in its wake. Tonight, he'd finally catch the culprit red-handed (or, should he say, red-glazed?). As the groan grew louder, a monstrous shape lumbered out of the fog. It was a donut, alright, but colossal. Its glazed surface shimmered under the moonlight, studded with malevolent chocolate chips and a single, menacing gumball eye. A chorus of disembodied moans rose from the disturbed graves as the donut flattened several headstones with an indifferent squish. Harold, adrenaline coursing through him, charged. "Hey, sprinkle-brained...

Hello square one,

Image
we meet again. We are starting over. Completely. No, not the whole yard.....just the church (Westerman Abbey) - I say "just" the church like it is just a small prop in the yard. This is big. Very, very big. I know I am as stunned as all of you.....actually typing it out for the blog is a very scary thing to do.  It is more real now.  I told you all, so I have to do it. At the moment, we are still in the planning stages.  I think our next step is to build the scale model and see what supplies we are going to need.  Oh, you have your hand up, do you have a question? "Why I am getting rid of probably one of the largest props in any home haunt?" The answer is in the question. It is bit cumbersome to put up.  We had an accident taking it down one year and this year while taking it down the 14' pieces of lumber we damaged (just years of wear and being out in the rain) - the only safe way to put it back up is to rebuild the frame.....and if I have ...
