The Start of Cemetery Season!!!!!

Mmmm, ok.


Points taken, GD.



But I still hated it.


Perhaps my expectations were clouded by anticipation of drug-influences, and not sleep-deprivation influences. Psychedelia was used in illustrations on all promotional materials (cyber and poster) by Cinespia .... and I was misled down the garden path. I'm not sure what sleep-deprivation visuals look like exactly, but there must be some distinction.

Heheh, during the pre-movie DJ set, we were remarking how the clear psychedelic influences of Pink Floyd were remarkably influenced in fact - not by psychedelics - but by alcoholics. I would expect a different sound from that kind of influence ... and certainly different poster art.

But hey, you can't beat The Haunting projected on a mausoleum wall in a cemetery. Next Week will be GREAT!

Drawing a line between psychadelia, surrealism, hallucinations - dude, I can't follow that line of reasoning. This was easily the most tripped out, f'd up, crazy ass sht I've ever seen, and the idea that this is not a trip out movie, not a psychedelic movie, not a movie that would be enhanced by drugs, is be-YOND me. I must see this again.
