This is the thread for my blog Slow-Motion Quick-Draw. My name's Jon Abrams, pleased to meet ya. If somebody could let me whether or not this first attempt at starting a thread works, I'd be thankful. If it does indeed work, and you've read any of my blog so far, absolutely let me know what you think.

JA.

Second Post Of The Day

I also saw The Happening this weekend, which got me thinking at length about all the time I've spent watching M. Night Shyamalan movies...

Finally -- awaited by maybe two or three people in the entire universe -- my fifth.

I really enjoyed your blog on that one scene of Ghostbusters nobody talks about. I agree, that scene beautifully sets up a new kind of creepiness.

Thank you very much. It's tough to come up with a rarely-quoted minute from that movie, but that's one of my favorites. I should be dropping a couple more blogs over the weekend, hope you get to check them out.

Loved the werewolf piece. They're also my favorite monster, and I've been waiting for a werewolf movie to come along rivaling "American" for awhile. I've been seeking out a lot of them, occationally finding something interesting but no GREAT pure werewolf movies.

One that I thought was quite good, although it could be considered more of a Yokai movie than Werewolf...and the "good" part depends on your tastes, was a Japanese flick called Kibakichi.

One I'm looking forward to seeing, which might meet the "so bad its good" criteria is Werewolf in a Women's Prison, which looks absolutly hilarious.

As far as books go, I just finished The Dresden Files Book 2: Fool Moon, by Jim Butcher, which had an interesting and pretty solid take on the werewolf mythology.

If you want, I'll update you as I see/read more. Great blog.

Hey thanks! I just kicked Kibakichi to the top of my Netflix queue. That looks to be square up my alley. Please do drop more updates on me as you discover them.

And thanks also for taking the time to read and comment,

JA.

I just finished The Road myself. You pretty much summed up my thoughts on the book itself and the movie. I get more excited for the film every time I think about it.

The Road.

Hey thanks for the reaction. I'm getting pretty excited to see the movie too. Think I might need to check out Apaloosa also.
