Mindless fun. That is the best way I know to summarize the you-need-to-see-it film Tucker & Dale Vs Evil. With sincere apologies to Ghostbusters, Shaun of the Dead and Evil Dead 2, this is the best comedy horror film I have ever seen. Sure it grossed only $0.2 million in theaters but that just further proves how unknown and under appreciated it is... Without getting into specifics, the film revolves around two vacationing hillbillies who get involved in a deadly misunderstanding that is absolutely to die for (pun intended). I won't say anymore, since surprises make the world a better place, but trust me when I say go watch this now! I don't like promoting Netflix, since I'm annoyed at the increased prices and severely diminished film library, but it is available to watch instantly so go do it! Oh, if you don't want to take my word on it, just watch the trailer and decided for yourself AND/OR read the great reviews on Rotten Tomotoes! Happy watching!!!

In 1984, I was born (hooray) but, unbeknownst to me, something else was happening. Famed director David Lynch, whom I respect for his innovative and inventive work, was busy destroying a wonderful piece of sci-fi fiction that I have come like quite a bit. Lynch took on the impossible task of recreating the detailed and peculiar world that Frank Herbert created yet, unlike Peter Jackson years later, failed miserably to accomplish a worthy big-screen adaptation, at least according to pretty much every critic or Herbert fan. I for one watched the movie years ago, thought it was weird and a bit campy but I look forward to a re-watch pending the completion of the book that I am quite enjoying presently. Exercise log Yoga? Tennis? Walk?
