Horror Night at Shiloh LIVES!!

For all you horror dudes and chicks, I'm proud to announce that Horror Night at Shiloh returned from the grave, so to speak, two nights ago. We have a new TV in the basement (the same one that was at 2708...*single tear) and it has been awesome so far!

Wednesday Night: The Midnight Meat Train
Sounds gross right? Sounds promising, right? Correct! Sherwin and I rolled over to Circle Pizzeria (NY-Style large pizza), scored a large cheese, took it back and threw on the movie. Originally adapted from a 7-page short story by Clive Barker, Midnight Meat Train was pretty sick!! I want everyone to watch this because it rules, so I won't give anything away, but suffice to say I will be legitimately freaked out for the rest of my life if I am the only person on a metro car at night. And I will never look at the Metro the same way again. The last fight scene is incredible. Kudos to the cinematographer and special effects crew for putting together a suspenseful and ridiculously gory endgame (conceptually as much as visually--you'll see what I mean). There are some brutal and tragic twists in this movie, and Sherwin and I highly recommend it!

Thursday Night: Quarantine
If you liked Cloverfield but thought it wasn't realistic enough, and if Diary of the Dead freaked you out but you weren't necessarily moved...you are going to flip out over Quarantine, a recent "handheld-camera" type horror movie. I won't give anything else away, but the plot is rationed out slowly and precisely, with incredibly realistic and terrifying results. Sherwin and I bought another large cheese pizza for this movie, this time from Pizza Boli's, but halfway into my second slice I completely forgot about the pizza and was fully engaged in this movie and totally freaked out!! Didn't touch the pizza after that. Neither did sherwin. This movie, plotwise, is so well done that at every turn you simoultaneously want to know more, and don't want to know any more, and just want it to be over and go away...but it is as unforgiving as it is patient. Incredible.

THE SHILOH NEWS:
1. Weddings have been pissing everybody off
and as such Shiloh has, obviously, plunged into the abyss of selfish pizza-devouring horror movie nights and videogames. We're coming apart at the seams!! Sherwin's got a shinsplint and Nathan randomly ordered 3 gamecube controllers. I don't know what's going on.

2. Nathan has another light in his room!!! that's right folks, I no longer have to be afraid of the dark, with my new "2nd lamp" in the room! of course, now I can actually see my filthy floor, but also it's easier to clean when you can see stuff. at least that's what people have been telling me.

3. Jonaline is still MIA. where the heck does he go?!

4. Prisms is in the studio working on two demo tracks for the new record! Keep your ears to the ground, these will be ready in a few weeks!

5. Horror Night at Shiloh will soon be extended to the rest of the world!! if you're into horror movies, we will have good news for you guys in the coming weeks...

see ya later!
