A beginning is a very delicate time
 

Hi there,

I have just registered, and I am in the strange and currently wet land of Scotland, land of the wee dancing sprites. Or so fans of Little Britain would have you believe. I started with Doctor Who in black & white (behind sofa), and it went downhill from there.

I have never laughed as hard as I did when I first saw Evil Dead II, and I am a big fan of the original Alien film, H R Geiger and the first Creep Show. It is my personal goal in life to have the Hallmark Channel consigned to deep space.

I don't dress in black all the time, don't have extended teeth (although the real one's are a tad vampish), and don't take myself seriously. Horror films started like pulp fiction, so that's pretty much how I view the whole genre. It's about pace, timing, atmosphere, but if your head hurts, they've missed the boat.

Have a scary evening,

Angus

perhaps you can clear up the question on everybodys mind....what do you wear under your kilt?

Scotch Mist
 

Nothing but a smile, but if you have ever been to a Scottish wedding, once the drinking starts, very few women "ask". Glad to here from a fellow Horror fan. It sometimes seems we are the poor relations of our Sci-fi colleagues, but then I don't think we have the same image problem (Simpsons etc etc).

I dress in all black all of the time. Mostly because I'm an Oakland Raiders fan.

Welcome to HDC.

Black is the new.....black
 

Wasn't intended as a criticism, just that I'm interested in the films, not the trappings. Must confess I don't know much about what I assume is American Football, but that's a failing on my part. Thankyou for the welcome. There is definitely something neat about having a global conversation, especially if it's about horror flicks. Although if you want a real scare, watch the original version of Solaris, which I think was directed by Tarkovsky (apologies for spelling), then watch Mr Cloonies version.

I don't take myself serious either. Infact, now that I think about it, no one else does either **Sheads a single tear**

I believe not taking yourself seriously, probably starts with a realisation that no-one else does. Glad to be a member, so to speak. You can do your own jokes. Fan of Silent Hill 1/2/3/4 by any chance ?

Got all but the 1st one. My fave was Silent Hill 4: The Room. Slightly underated if you ask me. I really enjoyed the game but it got some bad press. Never completed it tho - Did the dangerous thing of buying another game and not going back to it after...Shame on me.

What did you think of SH4?
