For everyone who did not realize it, today is FRIDAY The 13th! A national day to pay our respects to the horror movies and scary films we love so much! In that regard I thought I’d take a diffrent approach and list the top ten worse horror movies of all time (at least according to IMDB and their voters). If you feel really brave pull up a couch and go rent a few of these! Then let me know how bad they actually are because frankly I’ve never seen any of them!

1. The Maize: The Movie (2004)
2. Die Hard Dracula (1998)
3. Evil Behind You (2006)
4. Bigfoot (1970)
5. At Dawn They Sleep (2000)
6. Witchcraft 8: Salem’s Ghost (1996)
7. Voyeur.com (2000)
8. Hillbillys in a Haunted House (1967)
9. Girls on the Road (1973)
10. The Legend of Diablo (2004)

P.S the Top 50 horror movies of all time are also listed on IMDB. So if you want to actually crap your pants, pick a few of those for tonights movie time.

I love the History Channel. It has given us some great programming over the years and one of my favorite shows is Modern Marvels (did you know its been on since 1995!!!). They cover so many interesting things. The Empire State building or the Golden Gate Bridge are two of my favorites, but last night I was watching a rerun on my DVR and I was a bit let down. The show was on Snow, yup… snow as in the ice crystals that fall from clouds when its cold outside. They even had a show once on Ice that I watched. Some of the less interesting shows included topics such as Buses (shown July 27, 2000) and Hardware Stores (shown June 25, 2001). I understand that every show can’t be a winner… but come on! Lets get a bit more creative than Hardware Stores and Ice!

Anyway I’ll admit I still sat through the whole show and it saddens me. I am so bored that I need to watch an hour long show on Snow and Ice? I mean the guy that narrates the show is good but hes not THAT good. I think maybe a need a new hobby.

On a sidenote I am reading a new book! Earth Abides by George R. Stewart. I just recently finished The Last Ship by William Brinkley. That one was 616 pages long, probably the longest book I’ve ever read. It was ok overall but the narrative was a bit overdeveloped at times and the plot took quite awhile to unfold. So far Earth Abides has been a bit faster moving, though some parts have been unpleasant when referring to race and such (it was written in 1947). If anyone else has read these books and wants to chat about them (I know, NERDY!) shoot me an email or leave a comment. Also, if anyone knows of a post apocalyptic book club pass along the info, I’d love to join.

I deleted my automatic reposts of my blog on facebook and I’ve gotten a link or two coming in from some people with decent scores on Technorati.com.

I’ve official gone up from an authority ranking one 1 to a big jump up to 2! Oh yea! That jump was enough to plow past over almost a million and a half blogs. Watch me go baby watch me go!

On another related note. Now that I’ve been posting a little more frequently I’ve also seen a big bump in my daily unique visitor hits. I am up to about 150 a day. Not to shabby I’d say. Plus I’ve got a decent RSS subscription base if I can trust my stat counter.

Anway, like I said before (or maybe I just thought I mentioned it) I write this blog for myself, as an outlet, but its always nice to see that other people are getting some type of value out of it.
