Blurbs! Get your red hot blurbs here!
 
So most of you know that __V__ and I have a project coming up in a few months. I'd really like to complete the lists we have at the top before we dive into a new realm of HDC madness.

So get your blurbs here! Request! Reply! Work out those writing skills (trust me, shake off the cobwebs. You're going to need a clear mind when we start the new one;))

Please post here the blurbs you're interested in under these guidelines:

Name of list

Name of Movie/Icon you request

This will make it easy for __V__ and I to contact you and sort through this thread with ease.

Step up team! Go go! Let's finish these bad boys in the name of all who toiled and turmoiled to put them together!

_____V_____ 09-29-2008 09:01 PM

Yep, sir!

About time all the chosen ones got blurbs of their own. Come on, folks!

neverending 09-29-2008 10:11 PM

I still plan on doing Sangster, Fisher, Oboler and Arkoff for the Icons list. I'm just swamped with projects the next several days, so don't give them away.

Also, please let Miss Mabre do the ones she's asked for.

Roderick Usher 09-29-2008 10:29 PM

If this is for the Icons list, I'd love to do Lon Chaney, E.A. Poe and/or H.P. Lovecraft (if they made the list)

missmacabre 09-30-2008 04:55 AM

I had requested Linnea Quigley, Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff and David Cronenberg. I have a busy week, but I am making time for them and will hopefully have them done by the end of the day tomorrow. I need the writing practice for my communications class anyway so I'm considering those blurbs extra assignments.

I had requested Price which is already done. (Good job Return.) RL Stine and Sam Raimi but I just don't have the time and I would rather let someone else do them justice than me do a rush job.

_____V_____ 09-30-2008 04:57 AM

No prob, Miss M. Take your time till the weekend.

The_Return 09-30-2008 05:33 AM

Here are the ones that I've requested already through PM's to _V_ or Flayed:

Icons:

- Dwight Frye

The Unsung, The Underapperciated & the Bizarre

- Nightbreed
- Deadbirds
- Gothic

The Sickest, Gorific, Disturbing and Controversial

- Natural Born Killers
- Requiem for a Dream
- Dead Alive
- Evil Dead
- Slither

Those should keep me busy for awhile...but if there are any good ones left in a month or so, I'll gladly pick up a few more.

alkytrio666 09-30-2008 08:42 AM

I'd love to blurb Peter Lorre, Stephen King, and Val Lewton! Possible?

_____V_____ 09-30-2008 08:45 AM

Go ahead, Alky. I am sure nobody has asked for them yet. :)

Doc Faustus 09-30-2008 08:50 AM

Ovid, Borland and Conrad Veidt taken?

_____V_____ 09-30-2008 08:51 AM

Nope.

All yours, Doc.

All yours mate!

@Rod - This is for all the lists, including the original HDC Top 100, which still has three unfinished blurbs.

Ahem....you said I could do Black Christmas last week. I am hoping to get it done today.

The_Return 10-01-2008 02:38 PM

If nobody else wants it, I'd gladly add the Night of the Living Dead remake to my blurb load.

I was planning to finish most of mine up tomorrow, but I got called in to work. So I might be until the weekend or so...

I sent you a PM on 9/25 to which you responded that day.

At any rate, I sent you the Black Xmas blurb.

And I checked the PM and duly posted your blurb.




So, any more takers? Want some blurbs, hmmm?

Do a little bit of writing, maybe?

Exercise those fingers and shake out the cobwebs?

Maybe have a little fun and give everyone something informative to read, huh?






WRITE SOME FUCKING BLURBS!:p

Thanks. :D You spelled my name wrong though. ;)

Bub the Zombie 10-03-2008 07:37 AM

In the Official HDC Top 100 Sticky, #15 is missing, Flayed One.

The_Return 10-03-2008 07:54 AM

I've got 2 more of mine sent in - one to Flayed and one to _V_.

Should have the rest of mine done within the week.

Correction - make that 3. Just got Dwight Frye sent in as well.

_____V_____ 10-11-2008 08:59 PM

***Update***

Posted the Samuel Arkoff blurb (NE) and the Donald Pleasence blurb (Festered).

Good work, guys...keep em coming!

neverending 10-11-2008 09:00 PM

Thank you Mr. V!

The Flayed One 10-19-2008 08:11 AM

So, less than two weeks before the next HDC Project is revealed. Get your blurbs in while you can guys, don't want anything left on the back burner when we start.

pinkfloyd45769 10-19-2008 08:21 AM

We need an official countdown thread;)

Doc Faustus 10-19-2008 08:22 AM

I'll be on mine later in the week. I'm so far behind on everything right now.

_____V_____ 10-19-2008 10:26 AM

Posted the Linnea Quigley blurb by Miss Macabre, and the Hitchcock blurb by Festered.

Good work you two...keep em coming!

fortunato 10-19-2008 02:39 PM

No problemo, buds. Take your time, but they should come at some time. :D
