Hello there, I'm watching you

The Exorcist. The movie Alfie damn well pumped us all up for. I can understand why it won the best sound in the 1970s, but now, I'm afraid it didn't live up to our expectations. Not that it's a bad movie or anything, don't get me wrong, but it didn't live up to expectations in terms of scare factor. And I quote Shaun, "This one like comedy sia". Again, not that this movie is not creepy enough, but compared with current horror movies which can scare the shit outta me almost every freakin second, this one scared me. For awhile. Then the we got to see the girl's face all possessed, and we got used to it. Funny eyes? Check. Pale skin? Check. Scars? Check? Spews vomit every once in awhile. Check that too. The scare factor, in this case, the girl, was given a lot more screen time then current scare factors.

Sleeping bag. I brought it to school, no kidding. And it was comfy. Audio lesson was boring, till we had the hands-on session which made things more lively. I wish he would stop shooting himself, saying how dry the lesson was. Self fulfilling prophecy and all that.
