A Glimpse Of Happiness


Through the minds eye you can see how I choose to spend my week...
...it's not overly strenuous to work out what I devote my time to and what I don't... 
I'm a simple kind of guy.

To have MonaterFest arrive and the opportunity to revel in a horror movie festival, it's like music to my ears.
I bought a 5 film pass, granting me entrance to 5 sessions of my choice spanning the 14 day screening time ...
I'm all set...

Terrifier 3 starts on the first night and I immediately know what I'm getting myself into. The opening scene has him killing a little girl and her brother and I immediately know why it was reported that people fled the cinema upon first screenings...
Its violent ...

Throughout the rest of the movie we're met with Art doing what Art does best ...
...tormenting and dismembering...

Once the credits roll I'm content,...
'now THAT, was a movie'...
I can appreciate the fact that it would be difficult to create a new villain in today's time and age, with such greats like Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Ghostface, Jigsaw and even the Sawyer family, it would be hard to get people to be interested ...
But not for Damien Leone, he has seamlessly created Art The Clown without the slightest need for any sort of acceptance from the outside world. 
An uncompromising figure that installs fear and dread into the bone's of anyone that dares to gaze into his eyes ...
A true villain, and a new enemy to love to hate...
I am wrapped.

The next 4 screenings for me are "shorts" of various subject matter.
I really get into that, I feel like a professional film reviewer.
I'm able to see the best shorts from the best up and coming film producers in the world today. 
Unrated, unedited and unlike anything else it is a great experience that I encourage any cinema lover to undertake.
Write that down...

Once that winds down and I'm officially sick of fiction it's time to watch the Bears!...
A week 5 matchup against the Panthers and we're starting to get a feel for things.
Who was it that said we weren't sure if Kaleb Williams was the QB of the future for us?...
Not me, that's for sure. Lol.
Kaleb Williams is the man!
A continual progression week on week see's him in the conversation of potential MVP candidates...
Love it.
We absolutely trounced the Panthers, it's like they weren't even on the pitch ...
...ouch ...

I spend the following days walking around in circles, unsure of what to do with myself. 
Drink a little? Sure 
Smoke a little? Sure
Watch a little? Sure
Any chance of having something worthwhile come my way though ...?
Any chance of feeling stimulated by something other than substances ...?

...

...I thought as much ...

The Box Hill fair is on today. Yay!
