More of the Usual

amberfocusZombie Friday is actually going pretty well tonight. Last week was just so awful I don't even want to think about it. The movie was Days of Darkness and all I can say is AVOID, AVOID, AVOID! I did eventually find an apocolypse movie to watch instead (Toxic Skies, bye-bye Spokane) that was relatively interesting, but I was so tired by the time I started it that I fell asleep halfway through. Ah, well. Tonight's movie was bad but in that can't look away though I'm desperately trying, usually aired at 2 a.m. on the SciFi (I mean Syfy) channel sort of way. It was called Infection and the photoshopping special effects were so hilarious. I mean, it's like they told a twelve year old who'd had one class in it to do the little monsters that made people zombies and there was fire that was soooooooo bad it looked like still images being flashed over the house that was supposedly on fire over and over again. And sometimes the fire was green. Lead guy was cute though. I'll put up with a lot for cute lead guy. (Yes, I am that shallow and anyway it was either that or MEGA SHARK vs. CROCOSAURUS which does not in any way meet the criteria for Zombie Fridays and I'm not that far gone yet).
Now I am going to spend a good portion of the rest of the evening reading I Am Legend which was recommended to me by...oh, dear, well, someone on my f-list. It is supposedly not at all like the Will Smith movie of it or the Charleston Heston one, either. Which I kinda liked both of, but source material is almost always better than what is being sourced and books are always better than their movies unless they are books based on movies.
I actually got a stack of novels because T gets his tonsils out next week and since DH will be gone, he's just going to move into bed with me while he's recovering so I reckon I'll do a lot of reading while he watches DVD's or reads himself. Only three of them are end of the world type books. And one...I still can't believe I even picked it up, let alone checked it out, is called Dopplegangsters, the premise of which is dopplegangers of gangsters keep showing up in this city... Yeah, I know. I have no taste.
